Adventure and Things to Do
This entire region is famous for the opportunities it offers for adventure sports as for its enchanting beauty. The adventurous could try their hand at Heli-skiing (at Hanuman Tibba, Rohtang Pass, Deo Tibba and Chanderkhani Pass near Manali), Skiing (a choice of courses available with the Directorate of Mountaineering and allied sports), Para-Gliding (at Solang), Angling, Mountain Biking, Mountaineering and Rockclimbing (Beas Kund region and the lower reaches of Hanuman Tibba and Deo Tibba). Sports like White water rafting on the Beas are also very popular.
Manali, because of its location and proximity to high peaks is probably the best take-off point both in terms of number and complexity of treks as well as trekking infrastructure.
The Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports of the Mountaineering Federation of India, operating from Solang Nallah, offers besides equipment, beginner and advanced courses in mountaineering and permission for expeditions to scale peaks in the region.
