Things to Plan for your Trip to Hill Station

Packing for a hill station  always means extra luggage full of winter clothes, winter shoes, all kinds of personal care items to protect oneself from winter and all kinds of woollens; socks, gloves, winter cap and what not. This blog is all about how to do proper planning and packing for a trip to solang valley.

What to pack for a trip to the hill station in manali?

Word to wise; do not underestimate the weather condition of a hill station. For instance you are residing in a comparatively hotter area than Solang valley and the temperature is touching the sky in your city. But that does not mean that you assume that the hill station you are going to for a vacation is also going through the same period. Always keep two woollens and two jackets to add layering depending on the severity of the cold weather.

Beside clothes do pack other woollen items like gloves, caps and ear cuffs. Since it is very cold in manali do not forget to keep moisturiser and lip balm to protect your skin.

Other than clothes and personal care items there are few others that must keep items so that you can enjoy your trip to the fullest. Take all important electronic items with you including a camera. If you are carrying a phone, do not forget to take a power bank as a backup for phone battery.

How to plan your Journey?

It would be great if you plan your journey before reaching the place itself. Often we tend to reach the place and then look for the options and the places to visit. But that kills not only the time but also we are fooled and misguided by the local chauffeur and travelling agency. Use the technology we are blessed with! Check for you for the places that are most visited in the vicinity of your hotel first. It would be best if you select a hotel that is near to the most of the tourist places as well as economical. There are several online services for hotel booking which provide rooms online at a cheaper cost than the offline booking. Once you select the hotel, plan how much time the place of interest would consume. And subsequently plan you each and every day. Also check for the nominal charges that are taken by the local cab agencies so as to avoid any chances of rip-offs. Also check for the best route and get all the information of the routes so that you are well aware of the place.

Do some research about tourist places?

Do not forget to do your homework about the hill station. Read everything about the manali famous places. Read everything about it; from its history to the present local market around it. The more you know about it the better. You can bring speciality to the place as a souvenir. Read about the famous local cuisine or special handicraft and everything. This will also increase your curiosity and you will enjoy your vacation.
