Our Father Retired as a Fighter Pilot from IAF as Air Cmdr. He always had a vision and an eye for the hills. His Father/our Grandfather who was a Surgeon had bought land and an House known as Old Club House next to Dussehra Ground(Dhalpur) Kullu. He once in 1970’s during Dussehra Festivals had gone on vacations there. In evening as it started to rain, he was requested by some local village folks sitting in front of the house to come and take shelter with their village Devta in veranda of his Cottage; once in he conversed with them and was told which Local Village were they from; time flew by and as being a fighter pilot and craze for the hills he once flew into the Kullu Valley area all seemed good as he was getting into a very narrow valley out of no where. Gust of clouds set in; he tried to wriggle out of it, but lost his bearing/heading, time was short and all he could in those fraction of time was Pray to the local Devta for his safety and safe return to the base this valley that he was venturing into was 3 way Valley covered with hills with no way of return, while he was praying the clouds cleared and he just about managed to clear the front hillock which was right in front by going in for full throttle pull up…upon safe arrival at base he went on to check his maps of the area where he had got lost in valley…believe it or not it was the same village area of the Devta he had given shelter to in the cottage verandah a year back. Guess it was the time to thank him once again or may be devtas way of saying to dad….Devtas will always keep you in the palm of his hands.
He in early 2000 started camping site under Eco Tourism on way to Shimla in Barog where any one could come and pitch his own tent and use our facilities besides using our tents also.
After running it for over a decade we are now venturing into Home Stay Scheme and have different plans as per Your Own Budget and Pocket.
The place is your own to enjoy with close knit Family and Friends..
