What to pack
Himachal weather & timing
- Weather can change quickly—carry thermals, gloves, warm socks, and a windproof jacket even in pleasant months.
- Begin main sightseeing by 9:00 AM when possible to beat ridge traffic and use daylight on long Shimla–Manali driving days.
- Many cafés and hill shops prefer cash; keep small notes handy.
Bags & motion comfort
- Prefer backpacks or medium soft bags over oversized rigid suitcases for hotel steps and cab loading.
- Carry motion-sickness relief if winding Kullu–Manali ghat sections bother you.
- Valid ID is required at hotels and for any domestic flights you combine.
