Dalhousie → Manali
Arrive at Dalhousie Bus Stand (or pickup from Pathankot Railway Station). Transfer to the farm village in the Salooni belt (30 km, 1.5 hrs). The drive passes through dense deodar forests and terraced fields. Welcome by your Himachali host family with traditional chai and local snacks (pakoras, sweet rice). Settle into the farmhouse room. Afternoon: walk through the farm — meet the cows, goats, and chickens. Learn about the seasonal crop cycle. Help harvest vegetables from the kitchen garden. Evening: learn to make Chha Gosht (Himachali lamb curry) with the family matriarch.
