I would love to climb the mountain to reach the snow capped hills…
Once atleast, you must go for a Trek to the hills in Uttarakhand.
Dhanaulti in Uttarakhand is an offbeat place to visit. If silence is something that you want to experience, go to the non touristy places.
If you love riding a bike and comfortable with long rides, you can enjoy the view and the ride on the hills.
Travelling amidst Calmness and natural beauty is good for your tired nerves. No medicine is found to equate with time spent amidst nature. Breathe the clean air but oxygen is less as you go to higher altitudes.
If you want to enjoy the scenic beauty:
- You have to sacrifice the comforts of a hotel. Better to go for a homestay.
- Rent a bike and drive slowly.
- Stop where you can.
- Soak the beauty of the place.
- Also talk so that nobody sleeps
- Stop to rest.
- Eat from a local shop. You will know what’s simple food.
- Do not litter the hills with plastic bottles and packets.
- If possible carry your garbage bag till you reach the city.
- You will know how much garbage you contribute.
- Take photos to enjoy later when you are stuck in traffic in your city.
- You will be tired of the beauty after sometime. Home is home. It is called homesickness.
Hills are lovely to look at but the cold cripples those who are not habituated to it. Life is also difficult in the hills.
