Far from the madding crowd, Kasauli is
a beautiful Town. Kasauli is one such place
situated in the hills of Himachal to get rid of daily routine of
work or tension, this place offers nothing else but tranquillity,
beauty and enjoyment. Kasauli is a small town in a peaceful British
setting. Kasauli has all the features of a typical English town-The
Mall, big cottages built in the British style and the view
points. But what makes it different from other hill stations is
its silence. This place will interest you only if you are ready to
explore its beauty on foot. The two main walks around Kasauli, the
Upper and Lower Mall are beautiful. Just venture out into the arms
of nature and you will not feel like returning to the din of citylife.
Life here has a very slow pace and the serenity around gives a
sense of contentment. Believe it or not but this Engish town
has a lot to offer to you. It is an IAF base and safety
is ensured even if you are taking a walk very late at night. The view
of Chandigarh city from Kasauli is absolutely breathtaking at night.
What will see will be nothing but millions of lights shimmering-it will
seem to you like the whole city of Chandigarh has come
alive absolutely gorgeous! The highest point at Kasauli, known as
Manki Point,
is now with the IAF. Just one day in Kasauli is not enough
to make you fall in love-with the clouds, the hills, the jungle,
the starry sky, the serenity and the valley!

| Timber Trail |
Nestling cozily on the lap of the
Shivalik range, atop two adjacent hills and joined together with a
cable car, Timber Trail is an idyllic holiday destination. Though just
a few kilometers away from bustling Chandigarh, the hustle and bustle
of the city is forgotten as soon as one enters the gates of this
wonderful resort. Surrounded by wooded hills, the
Kaushalya river
meanders its way between the two hills. Hills where the clouds pause to
rest and time stands still. The air, full of pine scent and bird song,
Timber Trail takes one's breath away. A world of spectacular sunsets,
Nature paints the sky in unbelievable colours. And as darkness creeps
in, the distant lights of chandigarh take over to create the shimmering
magic of a million stars.
