Driving Tips

Drive Smart

Expert tips for your Chandigarh to Kasol road trip

1

The Bhuntar-Kasol road (30 km) is narrow, unpaved in parts, and clings to cliffs — drive extremely slowly

2

Kasol is a backpacker paradise — Israeli food, trance music, and stunning Parvati River views

3

Kheerganga hot springs trek starts from Barshaini (15 km beyond Kasol) — plan a full day for it

4

Mobile network dies after Bhuntar — download everything offline before entering Parvati Valley

5

Do not park on the narrow Kasol road — there are designated parking areas at both ends of the village
