Hey Niel, There are few nature places in pollachi to be visited : Monkey falls Parambikkulam Topslip tiger forest Anamalai Wildlife sanctuary Malmpuzha dam Grass hills Sholayar dam Depending upon your time you spend near these places you would need 2 to 3 days all in total .... Happy Travelling !!!
Hi Neil,
Two days are enough to discover whole of Pollachi, since all the places to see are located close by you don't have to travel much. I have found a perfect post on Tripoto which will help you plan your trip to Pollachi, https://www.tripoto.com/trip/offbeat-to-pollachi-5ab0dc34d3254
When going to Kasol and if on a budget, you can trek to Chalal and find plenty options for decent and cheap stay. The trek from Kasol to Chalal will take 1-1.5 hour. In Chalal you have Cafe's like Fusion and Shiva which serve delicious food. For other treks you can go to Magic valley, Weichin. You can explore places like Manikaran, Tosh, Malana. There are many Cafe's in Kasol too, I would suggest you go to German Bakery as well.
Hi Srinivas,
Since you are travelling on a budget i would recommend you to stay in hostels and there are plenty of hostels in Kasol. I'm sending below names of a few you can look for
Whoopers Hostel, Nomads hostel, Gypsy Hideout and the Hostellers. For your accommodation in Kheerganga you will have to take your own tent or you can rent tent from Kasol as well. I'm sending with this message a posy about doing Kheerganga trek in budget. https://www.tripoto.com/trip/how-to-do-the-kheerganga-trek-in-under-rs-3500-586f57759c4ff
Hey Upmanyu, Yesss, it's all possible to trek to Kheerganga and years u will witness snow fall if you are lucky enough, and thats the best part of it ... And coming to snow clad peaks ... you will have a lottt to see ... Go ahead and book and enjoy your trek bro ... Happy Trekking and Happy Travelling!!!
Yes it is doable..And You will get snow even on the trails..I visited the kheerganga last month;you can check the post on my tripoto post. No need of any guide or prebooking..Because trails are well marked and trek is easy and you can get tents at top at Rs 400 per person.
Hey Amal, First of all all the best for your volunteering program... Places to visit near Dharamshala are :- Kangra valley Dharamkot Dalai lama temple tibet museum Namgyal Monastery Mcleodganj Triund peak Bhagsu falls Shiva cafe Happy Travelling!!!
Hi Amal, There are a lot of places around Dharamshala to explore, Dalai lama temple, A lot of Monasteries, Tibet museum, Mcleodganj, Triund-Snowline trek, Bhagsu falls. There is a wonderful post about things to do in Dharamshala, you can go through it and plan your trip: https://www.tripoto.com/trip/things-to-do-in-and-around-dharamshala-57bf5f3801690
Both the places have their own charm. Visit Varkala if you looking for beaches and shopping like in Goa. The hotels and food are also cheaper compared to other places. Go to Udupi for temples and if you like seafood.
Hey Kush, In case of which is beautiful, beleive ne both are the best ... But if you are very much new for Trekking then i would suggest you to take triund first, give that exercise to your legs and then get ready for the little more grueling trek of kheerganga .. And dont forget to share your experiences on Tripoto page ... Happy Trekking and Happy Travelling!!!

You can go To Goa;I visited the goa in Dec 2015.The beaches are decorated like a bride.At that time;the famous Sunburn festival also get organized there.You can go to cruise for the parties.And away from the beaches is peaceful,clean,less crowded area i.e. South Goa.Hire A scooty and wander all tha goa with the help of google maps.In other options;you can go to Jaisalmer. Sunrise and sunset are really majestic.I visited there last month.(Done safari and camping there). You can also go to Rann of Kutch.As Rann utsav(biggest festival)is going to start from Nov-Feb. For the mountains and snowfall go to Shimla,Manali or less explored likeGangtok..
If you like less crowded area, to enjoy your solo trip..Then go for Kasol. If you traveling via Delhi then you can book your bus from Delhi ( Kashmiri Gate) to Bhuntar, then take a local bus from Bhuntar.
or
You can choose Pondicheri ( French colonial settlement ).. You can enjoy a number of old and large churches in Pondicherry most of which are built in 18th & 19th century.. You can explore the hole city..
or
If you like crowded place then Goa will be the best place to visit in the month of December. Mostly the Sunburn Festival of Goa. This year sunburn festival will begin on 29th December. Ticket cost approximately 3000/-
Hey Muhammed, The best season would be till December form now as the post monsoon the place will be calm serene and filled with lush green landscapes.... There are also many festivals around Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland which will grab the travelers. If you are lucky enough you can also witness snow clad peaks in Tawang of Arunachal Pradesh .... So winters are the best to visit north east ... Happy Travelling !!!
As usual best season for hill station is summers.But at that time rates and crowds are so high.So always go one month before and after of peak season.Winters are also good if you want to enjoy the snowfall and dnt much bother about cold..I have explored the Sikkik and Megahalaya ;so you check for the budget itinerary tips on my posts on tripoto and you can ask if you have any query..
You can book hotels with the oyo..best hotels at low price...Always book hotels near bus stand..Because then you can travel the Jaipur in public transport like metro and buses or sharing autos. Check my blogs to see how to cover Jaipur in minimum budget..You can ask if you have any doubts..
