A year-round adventure destination near Manali, popular for skiing and snowboarding in winter and paragliding and zorbing in summer.
Solang Valley, located about 14 kilometers northwest of Manali, is a high-altitude valley at the top of the Kullu Valley. It serves as a year-round hub for adventure activities and is known for its impressive views of snow-covered peaks and glaciers. In winter, the valley transforms into a ski resort, with gentle slopes suitable for beginners and areas for more experienced skiers. The landscape is covered in a thick blanket of snow, making it a popular spot for skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling. During the summer months, as the snow melts, the valley's green meadows become the center for activities like paragliding, zorbing, and horse riding. A cable car, or ropeway, ascends to a higher point on the mountain, providing panoramic views of the surrounding Himalayas. Visitors can take the ride up and enjoy the scenery or opt for a paragliding descent. The valley floor is dotted with small food stalls, equipment rental shops, and operators managing the various activities, creating a lively atmosphere focused on outdoor recreation.
