India offers incredible camping spots, and in recent years, trekking and camping in the hills have people venturing out towards offbeat destinations. Situated in the Great Himalayan National Park (GHNP), the enchanting Thachi valley is one such place that has been kept a secret for a long time.
I came to know about this stunning valley a few years ago through a friend who happened to discover it quite surprisingly on his way to Tirthan. Thachi is a small hamlet near Mandi and is one of those rare places where one can enjoy nature as it is.
In recent times, they have also introduced the Panoramic Glass Lodge. These offer a retreat like no other.



Perched high above the valley, the lodge seamlessly blends into its natural surroundings, with floor-to-ceiling windows inviting the outside in. As you step inside, you’re greeted by a sense of serenity and tranquillity, with every corner offering a new perspective of the picturesque scenery. Imagine sleeping under the glittering stars, creating memories every single step. It’s going to be a magical experience.
Places to See:
Bithu Narayan Temple, other local temples, Ropa freshwater pond, Beed Plateau, Gaun Beed waterfall, Ahsu Alli waterfall, Hidimba Temple, Chanjwala Temple Peak, Saponi Dhar grassland, Gharsaw grassland, and so much more.

Here, the camping and treks are planned & organised by a group of local youths who are nature lovers and want people to appreciate the incredible beauty of their village and community. They aim to provide employment to the villagers, yet have defined rules for the travellers to respect the place and its people by ensuring that the environment stays clean.
There are three treks to choose from, and for those who are not into trekking, 60% of Thachi Valley can be easily covered on foot!
- Trek 1: 3 days/2 nights – Thachi Saponi Peak (Level Moderate)
- Trek 2: 3 days/2 nights – Thachi Gaun beed Plateau Peak (Level Pro)
- Trek 3: 5 days/4 nights – Into the Wild (Level Pro)
Camping sites are located amidst apple orchards, with all the camping provisions provided by the team at Thachi Valley. Private rooms and homestays can also be arranged for those who prefer not to camp at reasonable prices with homemade meals. Please remember, prior booking is recommended.
