Himachal Pradesh is the state with a great reservoir of abundant beauty, snow, adventure, thrill and serpentine rivers immersing from the dearth of Himalayas. The land of Himalayas has hidden treasure in every remotest nook and corner of its land.
Chail is one of the wonders in the paradise of Himachal Pradesh vying to charm you with its pristine natural beauty and enigmatic charisma. One step into this quiet hamlet and you witness the majesty of nature.
The summer retreat of Maharaja of Patiala is nested in the foothills of Himalayan hills. The mesmerising hill station is often called a 'hiker's paradise. Located just 63 km from Shimla, Chail is spread across three hillocks Rajgarh, Pandewa and SadhTiba, over an area of 72 acres.
Located at the mesmerising height of 2250 m above sea level, it is a heaven for tourists to escape mind numbing restlessness of city life.
The summer months are most pleasant here and perfect for sight seeing. A lot of tourists come here during summers, to avoid the scorching heat of summers in the Northern plain. Autumn is also a good time to explore the mesmerising town.
Tourists should avoid visiting here during winters and monsoon as it hinders the normal life of the villagers and the rain brings along the risk of landslide.
So the best months to head towards Chail is April to June for sight seeing and October to March for witnessing the snowfall.
The idyllic retreat is majestic with its pine covered hills, lush meadows, tranquil landscapes and lush valleys with clouds floating over. The proximity to Shimla gives it the advantage of good transportation.
If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd then Chail is your paradisiacal escape.
The small town is the proof of eternal love between Maharaja Bhupinder Singh and Cricket. The town has the world highest cricket ground, situated at an altitude of 7500ft. Tourists are not permitted to enter the ground but are free to click pictures and walk around the park.
.A truly marvellous sunset point. Kali kaTibba is located at the top of the hill where the Kali Mata temple is built, thus its name. I can assure you that the sunset view at this point is going to be the most stunning and charismatic sunset you would ever see. Don't forget to visit the Maa Kali temple nearby.
