DETAILED ITINERARY
Day 0: Delhi - Bhuntar
Distance covered - 488 km

Good Evening Folks!
How about a night out on the bus sounds? Crazy and exciting, right? Well, if it doesn’t then Hikerwolf promises to make that happen.

Buckle up guys, a road trip from Delhi to Bhuntar awaits you this night.
It will be a mix of being ourselves as we hear some music and let the cold wind blow into our faces whilst we gawk at the beautiful scenery on the way AND have fun with everyone, play some road games, and scream all our hearts out.

But with all the time in our hands, you'd better watch out as we'd be pulling each other's leg and executing some really evil pranks and you will be out of luck if you fall asleep on our very first road-night-out.

The parade trip is unlike any other experience you've ever had, and adding along with our very own HikerWolf Tadka to it makes it even more special.

Day1: Bhuntar - Kasol - Manikaran
Distance covered - 39 km

We'd be waking up to the crisp mountain air of Bhuntar. For those who thought magic was never real, here are the bewitching valleys that'd make you believe otherwise.
We freshen up at the stay arranged in Choj and to Tour's first stop for the day which is the hippie paradise - Kasol.

Barely a few kilometers from Kasol are the hot springs of Manikaran that overflows with stories and surrealness. Take a darshan at Manikaran Sahib Gurudwara if you’d like. If at all you are tired from the earlier trip, the hot springs will relinquish all of it. Getting clouded with steam, and chilling in the natural jacuzzi like the setup in the water that has eternally remained above boiling point.

After enjoying such a refreshing gift of nature, we head back to Kasol. Guys…. Its time to Chillax in the famous Israeli cafés of Kasol. Infamously known as the Hummus trail, the cafe's around here are a complete feast to the tastebuds! The cultural fusion of taste and Israeli people will definitely make your heart light from all the stress and worries of routine which you have taken a vacation from.

The cafe also offers nightlife, famous for being one of its kind. Jamming to some amazing indie music with a psychedelic touch, it strikes the right chord when it comes to taking you by surprise.
Driving down while singing all those memories, we retire for the night at a stay in Choj.

Day 2: Choj - Barshaini - Tosh
Distance covered- 25 km

Choj is a village that resonates with a joyful vibe with river bridges, wooden houses, and vivid orchards. For day 2, we would be driving through this beautiful village to our base camp near Barshaini and complete a mini trek to Tosh.

Enjoying and singing on 80’s classics accompanied by rustling wind in the woods with hardly anyone to hear us. Take your time to rejuvenate your soul and feel the freedom without worry to find the right way.

We will also explore the beauty and culture of trio villages on the hills of Himachal Pradesh, Kalgha-Pulga-Tulga, on our foot which is as good as light trekking. Being with a bunch of travel enthus, the energy of the journey will only increase as we try speaking the local language and share some laughter and feel pride,

There's one advantage that always tags along through these routes - Authentic Himachali cuisine. Having a full course thali dinner from here is enough to keep you coming back for more.
With a happily bloated stomach, we wrap up Day 2 and kick up our feet at Kalgha.

Day 3: Kalgha - Kheerganga
Distance covered- 6.5 km

Finally, the D-Day is here! We're trekking up to the snow-dusted Kheerganga from the pristine greens of Kalgha.
There's going to be hanging bridges that give you the scares, rivers flowing right below calming your nerves, and a hill peak which is waiting to be conquered by our pack of Wolves!

Passing every kilometer will gravitate you to a pitstop. Be it for the 2-minute Maggi made in 5 minutes, or the warmest cup of chai. Everything becomes a lot more special when it's shared with a new bunch of crazy friends.

You'd also lose count on the spam worthy pictures you'd click with the icy Himalayas in the backdrop and the hanging bridge. The peaks are home to a natural hot spring too, where you could take a leap or just dip your feet and let your tiredness flow into hot
water.
Fun fact, these hills are globally infamous for their cultivation of charas and scenic views that'd get wanderlust's high even without it.

Once we reach our destination, we let out our loudest cry of victory! Taking our Dhoom-Dham along, we'd be staying out here at Kheerganga for the night.
Let’s sing all the songs we can think of while we sit drink hot chocolate as night air brushes past.

Day 4: Kheerganga - Kasol - Kullu - Dobhi
Distance covered - 77 km

Mornings in Kheerganga are even more magical, and we'd make sure you witness it in all its glory. You'd be waking up to our custom alarm of some totally out of tune singing, but we guarantee you that you'd thank us later for the breathtaking view.

Before climbing down we'll proudly hold up our HikerWolf flag and click many groupies. After all the huff and puff of the trek, we all do deserve to boast a little.
Here's a few things that may not get captured on our camera though,

The fresh breeze on our faces and smiles so wide with all the jokes we'd never get tired cracking. These will remain memories that'd be photographed in our minds forever.
Just two and a half-hour drive from the base camp is Kullu, where we'd make a stop for river rafting if time permits. If not, we'd straight off leave for Dobhi where our adventure outside Parvati valley calls out to us.

At Dobhi, the night remains young with round-the-clock partying. We will be showing off our best dance moves, as we play our favourite playlist for the night, making the craziest of videos that'd give us a walk down the memory lane.
Thinking back on this trip, this night would remain afresh simply because of the tons and tons of laughs we'd share.

Day 5: Dobhi - Bhuntar - Delhi
Distance covered- 518 km

An adventure-packed day is what awaits you on the final day! Today we're going completely off-road, quite literally. Trying our hand at aero and water sports, we explore the lesser explored inland regions of Himachal Pradesh.

Paragliding through the skies of Dobhi and watching the entire hamlet from a bird's eye viewpoint. Adventures at Dobhi will sweep you off your feet and this is something we can vouch for. Be it 5 minutes or 15 minutes, you'd be left under the dilemma of not wanting to go back to the mundane routines.

Worry not, because the end is going to be even better with the final pinch of seasoning to the trip. Enroute to Bhuntar, we'd be halting at Kullu for a mini river rafter adventure.
Going with the rush of the white waters offers an unfiltered version of the glacial lands. With the occasional splashing of icy cold water and swerving through the rocks, it's going to be the time of our lives!

After that party of screams and thrills, we bid adieu to Parvati Valley. Enjoying the bliss of, we made in the past few days and in the hopes of meeting once again for yet another memorable journey, we drive back to Delhi.
