Experience the thrill of rolling down the scenic slopes of Solang Valley inside a giant transparent orb, a popular adventure activity in Manali.
Discover what makes this destination truly special

Zorbing in Manali is an exhilarating recreational activity primarily hosted in the Solang Valley. It involves getting inside a large, transparent plastic orb, also known as a zorb, and rolling down a gentle hill. The experience is a mix of tumbling and spinning, offering a unique perspective of the surrounding landscape as it whirls by. The zorbing track is usually a well-maintained grassy slope, ensuring a relatively smooth and safe ride. Most operators offer two types of zorbing: harnessed zorbing, where you are strapped in, and hydro zorbing, where a small amount of water is added inside the orb for a slippery, washing-machine-like ride. The activity is supervised by trained staff who provide safety instructions and manage the launch and collection of the zorb. It's a fun, accessible adventure that doesn't require any prior skill, making it popular among tourists of all ages looking for a quick thrill amidst the mountains.
