Now, as you make your way back to Manali, don’t forget to stop at Solang Valley. If you’re up for some adventure, you’re in the right place. And yeah, it might get a bit dark by the time you roll back into Manali. You must be pretty tired, so kick back, have a hearty dinner, and trust us, you’re going to sleep like a log tonight. What a day!
Well, we’ve got two options for Day 5
Now that the Atal tunnel is there, lots of people usually skip the Rohtang Pass. But if you’re not in a rush to squeeze everything into one day, we’d highly recommend checking out the Rohtang Pass. It’s totally worth it! Once you get to the top, you’ll be treated to some seriously stunning scenery. And yes, the cold wind up there is bone-chilling but also super exciting.
Afterwards, you can swing by Mari for food and then make your way back to Manali. In the evening, you should consider a visit to Naggar Castle. Inside, there’s this charming little art gallery that showcases some amazing pieces by the Russian artist Nicholas Roerich. And guess what? The entry fee is just Rs. 20.
