Let me share useful information about this hidden treasure which lies hidden in Himachal Pradesh, Sainj valley. A destination like Sainj valley should definitely be included in Himachal Tour Package.

How to Reach Sainj Valley?

esting at the foothills of the Great Himalayan National Park, you find the serene beauty of Sainj Valley. Although we have a few more villages in the Kullu valley, Sainj will sure leave you awestruck. This is unlike any other place to experience bountiful nature and all its life forms, a place to relax and rejuvenate! You can get here from all popular modes of transport.

By Car

One can drive their car to Sainj but it is a 10 hours’ drive from Delhi covering a distance of almost 480 kms. You will have to take NH 44 to Chandigarh, and from there head to Shimla and onward. The road has tolls, but a petrolhead will surely enjoy the drive. You may break journey at Chandigarh and move ahead, or break journey at Shimla and proceed further. Both locations have good places to stay

By Air

One will have to fly to Kullu-Manali and then take local transport or taxi. The nearest airport is Kullu-Manali, and Sainj is a 95 min drive from there. However, one can also fly to Chandigarh or Shimla and then drive from there, but the drive will be longer, at least about 7 hours on the mountain path.

Best Time to Visit Sainj Valley

The average annual temperature in Sainj is 20.6 °C and gets about 1,387 mm of precipitation annually. As the place remains cool and rainy, one has to check weather forecasts before making the decision to visit any given time. April and May are the months with no precipitation, but, as a place of beauty, you get to see some amazing snow-capped mountains in January and February. July to September is also good time to visit if you’re okay with monsoons.

Best places to Visit in Sainj Valley

1. Sainj Village is itself such a breath-taking place where one can relax and be lost in the surroundings. As a place that isn’t hounded by too many tourists, it’s virgin scenic beauty is unmissable.

2. Meadows of the Shangarh is a place of pre-historic importance, where the Pandavas are supposed to have spent their 13 years of exile and Lord Krishna is supposed to have visited them. The Shangarh meadow is definitely worth your time and trek. Apart from being enthralled by the lush green meadow, if you are lucky enough, you can visit the local fairs organised in this part. There is a temple dedicated to Lord Mahadev, also called the Shangchul Mahadev temple, which is an important attraction in the Kullu valley.

3.Pudrik Rishi Lake is a place of religious importance to the locals. You are not permitted to touch the lake water though. And neither are boat rides and any pleasure activities allowed here. Locals tell us lot of interesting divine stories about the Lake, worth a listener’s ears.
4. Great Himalayan National Park Trek: This will be a trek of your lifetime, an experience worth all that you want from a getaway. The Park stretches over 1,170 sq.Km. You will realise that you have ventured into a heaven with a flora of more than 830 plant species and about 400 fauna. The lowest altitude of the National Park happens to be 1,500 meters above sea-level and the highest being 5,800 meters above sea-level. That will explain the long treks that one can relish for a minimum of a single day to a maximum of 9 precious days. Get your trek suits ready, but be adviced, some treks are really hard and not everyone’s cup of tea.

5. Sighting waterfalls in Himachal: The Kullu valley, famous for its waterfalls, presents its pristine natural beauty through not only flora and fauna, but the ever spectacular numerous waterfalls dotted across the valley.
The Sainj valley overall is an awesome place with hospitable locals and awe-inspiring beauty that can never be missed by a discerning tourist to the Great Himalayas.
