Tirthan for Me

Finding Yourself All Over Again in the Lap of Tirthan Valley

The hustle bustle of the city life, the never ending honks on the road and while at this, just close your eyes and hear the rushing sounds of the river…the sound that never ceases to exist and the sound that moves with you through the valley and never even for once leaves you alone.

Tirthan Valley is just the best place for solo traveling in India. Even with the quaintness, for the solitude that you find and the connection that you build with nature does not actually leave any room for company.

I leveraged the Holi weekend and visited Tirthan valley from Delhi for 3 nights and 4 days just to be with myself. After doing a couple of international solo trips I was actually looking forward to one in India but to be honest, I was a bit anxious. However, my nerves came at rest within 6 hours of my journey as I realized that people neither in the bus nor at the mid-way dhaba really gawked at me for travelling alone – even if it was at 3 am in the morning. The fear mainly is of the awkward uncomfortable small talks that people like to engage with but I was left in peace and could not have wished it any other way.

Tirthan valley is a hidden paradise located in the Kullu district of Himachal Pradesh at an altitude of 1600 m, deriving its name from the Tirthan River that swerves its way through the valley.

Hills are notoriously famous for the roads that lead to them and that only makes them even more attractive. Here I would actually like to appreciate the efforts made by Himachal tourism in managing the bus service seamlessly from ISBT. Even though there are a number of private buses that run from Majnu ka tila, the service & comfort offered by HPTC is so far the best & comfortable for a solo traveler. If you’re new to solo traveling, it’s better to go with travel communities because there is not much to worry about conveyance, accommodation and other arrangements.

I boarded the bus at 6:40 pm from ISBT heading towards Manali and dropped off at Aut just about 6:30 am. I had pre-arranged a pick up by a local taxi and reached my resort at Banjar in about 50 mins. If you ignore the pit stops at Highway for washroom facilities, the bus service so far is the best way to travel definitely not discounting the road trips J
