Itinerary
Arrival to Shimla — Transfer to Narkanda & Orchard Walk
Morning: Arrive at Shimla (railway station/airport) and meet your representative. Enjoy a scenic drive (approx. 60–90 minutes) to Narkanda, crossing pine forests and terraced apple orchards.
Afternoon: Check into your hotel and have lunch. After settling in, take a relaxed walk through nearby apple orchards and village lanes — perfect for family photos and learning about apple cultivation.
Evening: Visit a local viewpoint to catch a gentle mountain sunset. Dinner and overnight stay in Narkanda.
Travel note: Light baggage recommended; roads are hilly but comfortable for family travel.
Hatu Peak Excursion & Snow/Outdoor Activities
Early morning: After breakfast, drive to the trailhead for Hatu Peak. Short hike or drive (depending on season and vehicle) to the Hatu temple area for sweeping views of the Himalayan range.
Midday: Enjoy a picnic or packed lunch at the peak (weather permitting). In winter months, spend time in snow play, light sledging, and snowman-building — great for children. In summer, explore wildflowers and panoramic photography spots.
Afternoon: Return to Narkanda for a leisurely stroll through the town market. Optional visit to local orchards to taste fresh apples (seasonal) and interact with orchard farmers.
Evening: Dinner at the hotel. Tip: Carry sunscreen and layered clothing; mountain sunlight can be strong even when cold.
Day Trip to Kufri / Fagu & Scenic Stops
Morning: After breakfast, take a scenic day drive towards Kufri (or Fagu depending on weather & preference). Enjoy panoramic viewpoints offering clear views of snow-clad peaks and deep valleys.
Midday: Stop at roadside viewpoints for photography and short walks. Have lunch at a local café or picnic spot.
Afternoon: Visit popular viewpoints and easy trails for family-friendly walks. Return to Narkanda in the late afternoon. Free time for tea and relaxed conversations at your hotel.
Evening: Optional cultural activity: local folk music demonstration (subject to availability). Dinner and overnight stay in Narkanda.
Note: Kufri offers more developed tourist facilities; Fagu is quieter and equally scenic for those seeking calm.
Leisure Morning & Departure via Shimla
Morning: Enjoy a relaxed breakfast and one last stroll through the orchards or a quick visit to a viewpoint for morning light photos.
Midday: Check out from the hotel and drive back to Shimla. En route, stop for any last-minute shopping (souvenirs, local jams, dried fruits) or a short visit to the Jakhu / Ridge area in Shimla if time permits.
Afternoon: Drop-off at Shimla railway station or airport for onward journey. Trip concludes with warm memories of a refreshing Himachal Family Retreat.
