Hills and mountains are a second home to every person who loves being surrounded by nature, walking under hovering clouds, listening to the gushing water or watching flora and fauna in their natural habitat. Whether you are a mountain or a beach person, the experience you get when you are amidst blooming starry sky, hugged by the chilling breeze, listening to the birds sing odes to nature is like no other.
October is the time when the world is gearing up for the festivities and you are looking for options to make your festival season all the more fun. So, why not go off-beat with a trip to some isolated island or mountains to feel the freshness of the approaching winters (or summers, depending on the hemisphere).
Manali, Gulmarg, Shimla, Nainital, Kasol, Srinagar, Kodaikanalar, Mussoorie, McLeodganj, Chopta, Kalimpong, Pelling, Shillong, Mahabaleshwar and Munnar are undoubtedly the best destinations for you to add on your bucket list to discover hills.
October is the most pleasant month of the year to travel in North India. So, one can make a plan to travel to some of the prominent cities of Northern India like Amritsar, Delhi, Varanasi, Agra, Gaya, Sarnath, and many more. October is an excellent time to travel to Madhya Pradesh as well. Places like Khajuraho, Bhopal, and Jabalpur are top places to spend your holiday season. If you want to spend time amidst nature, places in North-East are your ideal getaway. You can plan a trip to Sikkim, Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, and other North-Eastern states in October. If you fancy a desert safari, Jaisalmer in Rajasthan is an ideal choice for a vacation.
Leather jackets, thermals, gloves, leg warmers, socks, comfortable walking shoes, lip balm/sunscreen/lotion, wind-cheaters, sweaters/pullovers, mufflers, woollen socks, earmuffs, backpack, umbrella, camera and most importantly a first-aid kit are the best things to pack whilst travelling to the hills.
