Hello everyone ❤️
How are you all?
I hope wherever you are, you all are doing well 🤗
Recently I went on a small trek which is nestled in the heart of Solan, Himachal Pradesh, the Karol Tibba a mesmerizing 15-kilometer round trip adventure. Embarking from Chambaghat Solan, the journey unveils its wonders with a steep climb leading to a vast meadow, providing a panoramic view of Solan and its surrounding villages.
The trail weaves through a Himalayan Oak forest, filling the air with the refreshing scent of nature.
A highlight along the way is the Pandava Cave, situated in the middle of the forest on Karol Peak. Local lore suggests that the cave, believed to be the oldest and longest in the Indian Himalayas, was constructed by the mythological Pandavas during their exile. It’s a dark and narrow passage, captivating with its mystique.
Atop Karol Tibba rests the ancient Karol Temple, dedicated to Goddess Kali. The locals, devoted to the goddess, perform an annual yagya during Navratras.
The breathtaking views from the summit encompass Shimla city, Chail, Kali Tibba, Churdhar peak, and parts of Solan town.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, we set up camp for the night. A bonfire illuminated the darkness, providing warmth as we sipped on hot tea. Dinner came in the form of Veg Pulao, accompanied by songs, dance, and laughter around the flickering flames.
The night took an unexpected turn with heavy rain, causing a mix of fear and amusement. Tales of tents taking flight added a touch of humor to the situation. As dawn broke, the sun’s rays pierced through the tents, unveiling a picturesque morning.
Reluctantly, we packed our tents, starting the descent with heavy hearts. Leaving behind the serene beauty of Karol Tibba, we carried memories of a night filled with laughter, rain-soaked adventures, and the enchanting embrace of nature.
I hope you have fun reading this blog.
