Here are some lesser-known Himachali hamlets that you plan a visit to this summer.
Rakcham

This quaint little town in Sangla Valley, Kinnaur, has pretty cute shops run by locals. With a sparse population of not more than 800 people, the village is nature’s paradise. During winters, the village remains covered with snow.
Thanedar

This beautiful hill hamlet in Himachal Pradesh is about 3 hours drive from Shimla and just half an hour away from Narkanda, but not many people are aware of its existence. The place is known for its cherries, strawberries, and apple plantations.
Langza

A lesser-known and lesser-explored village in Himachal is Langza. Enveloped with Himalayan ranges, Langza in Spiti Valley forms a circuit with Hikkim and Komic.
Gushaini

Also known as the trout country for its heavy population of trouts, the place is bliss for those who enjoy fishing. The Great Himalayan National Park is situated just 20 km away from here.
Churdhar

Churdhar, meaning dressed in moonlight, is the right place for nature lovers and peace seekers. The nights are simply magical, with mountains basking in the moonlight and twinkling stars.
