Khajjiar And Dalhousie Tour Packages

Places To Visit With A Khajjiar Tour Package

Khajjiar itself is walkable in an afternoon, so packages fold in the wider Dalhousie and Chamba belt. These are the stops that show up on nearly every Khajjiar itinerary.

Khajjiar Lake and Meadow

The lake sits at roughly 1,951 m, a small green pool at the centre of the meadow with a floating island of matted grass at one edge. This is the postcard shot people come for, and the flat grassland around it is where horse riding, zorbing and paragliding launches happen. Open through the day, and the one stop no package skips.

Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary

A short drive out of Khajjiar on the Dalhousie road, Kalatop is deodar and fir forest with easy walking trails and a chance of spotting Himalayan black marten, goral, langur or jackal. It is an easy add-on for anyone who wants a couple of hours of quiet forest rather than open meadow, and a popular light trek for beginners.

Khajji Nag Temple

On the bank of Khajjiar Lake, this 12th-century temple built under the Chamba raja Prithvi Singh gives Khajjiar its name. The wooden sanctum carries carved images of Shiva and figures from the Mahabharata on its roof beams. It is a five-minute stop, but a genuinely old one, and it sits right where you park for the meadow.

Dainkund Peak

The highest point around Dalhousie, Dainkund is a short walk up to a ridge with clear views of the snow line on a bright day. Green meadow in summer, white in winter. It is usually done as a half-day from Dalhousie and pairs naturally with a Khajjiar visit on the same loop.

Chamera, Panchpula and the Dhauladhar

Longer circuits add Chamera Lake for boating, Panchpula waterfall near Dalhousie, and views across to the Dhauladhar range from the Kalatop and Dainkund ridges. If you have a spare day, this is where it goes. For the full list of stops and how to string them together, read our guide to the best places to visit in Khajjiar.

Best Time To Visit Khajjiar

Khajjiar works in three moods, and which one you get depends on the month.

March to June (peak): Clear days, warm afternoons and the meadow at its greenest. The most comfortable window for families and for the paragliding and horse-riding activities. Book ahead, this is the busy season.

July to September (monsoon): Fewer crowds and low rates, but hill roads can be slippery and landslide holds do happen. Skip trekking plans in heavy rain.

December to February (snow): Khajjiar does get snowfall in a good winter, and the meadow under snow is the reason many people come. Cold, some road closures near Dalhousie, and worth carrying chains-ready transport.

How To Reach Khajjiar

Khajjiar has no airport or railway station of its own, so every route ends with a road leg through Dalhousie or Chamba. Your package handles the transfers; here is the shape of it.

By Air

The nearest airport is Gaggal (Kangra) near Dharamshala, roughly 110 km away, with flights from Delhi. From there it is a scenic road transfer via Chamba to Khajjiar. Amritsar airport is the larger alternative if Gaggal fares are high.

By Train

The closest broad-gauge railhead is Pathankot, about 86 km from Khajjiar and well connected to Delhi and Chandigarh. From Pathankot you continue by cab or bus to Dalhousie, then the short hop to Khajjiar.

By Road

Buses run as far as Dalhousie and Chamba; the final stretch to Khajjiar is by taxi or your package cab. Self-drive and Volvo options connect Delhi and Chandigarh to Dalhousie, and the Dalhousie-Khajjiar road itself is a 24 km drive through forest.

Things To Do In Khajjiar

The flat meadow makes Khajjiar unusually good for low-effort adventure. Most of this happens within a short walk of the lake.

• Horse riding across the meadow, the easiest way to circle the grassland with kids in tow.

• Paragliding with tandem launches off the surrounding slopes for a short flight over the bowl.

• Zorbing down the gentle grass slope, a favourite with families and first-timers.

• Boating at nearby Chamera Lake, added on the longer Chamba-side circuits.

• Trekking the Kalatop trails, moderate and beginner-friendly, best avoided in heavy monsoon.

• Nature walks and wildlife spotting inside Kalatop sanctuary, plus a picnic on the meadow.

How To Choose The Right Khajjiar Package

Four quick ways to pick, each pointing you at the right itinerary.

By trip length: A 3-night Dalhousie-Khajjiar trip covers the meadow, lake and Dalhousie. Want Dharamshala and McLeodganj too? Take the 5-night circuit.

By who is travelling: Couples lean to the Dalhousie Khajjiar honeymoon plan; families and groups do well on the multi-city 5-night route.

By budget: The 5N/4D McLeodganj-Dalhousie-Khajjiar package is the best value at Rs 13,000; the shorter Dharamshala Dalhousie Khajjiar tour is the premium, fewer-stops option.

By season: March to June for green meadows and activities, December to February if snow is the whole point. Full month notes are on the Himachal guide.
