December marks the peak of winter in India. It is also the month of festivities and school vacations. So one can plan either solo and family trip in December.

Snow lovers can visit places like Shimla, Manali, Kasauli, Dharamshala, and many other tourist spots in Uttarakhand like Nainital, Auli, and other places. If you are someone who does not like winter much, the South Indian states can be your ideal picks in winter.
