Khajjiar, Himachal Pradesh: Paharon ki Mallika

Famous as the “Mini Switzerland of India”, Khajjiar is a beautiful, sleepy hill town near Dalhouise that’s replete with hills, lakes and meadows, a la Bollywood Ghost Movies. Visitors, a part of reveling in the quiet mystery of this glorious, yet underrated hill town, can also partake of various adventure sports like paragliding, horse-riding, trekking and the like. Khajjiar can be easily visited throughout the year. However, during the cold months, roads are often sealed off due to heavy snowfall. This may end up being a trip spoiler. However, if you’re an adventurous traveler, carry heavy woolens.
