the last n final day:kufri

this was the best part of the trip.after being dissapointed at simla we decided to go to Kufri.everything went perfect tht day.we had all slept well the previous night so were supercharged and ready to go.after a lovely breakfast,we caught a bus to kufri.the bus dropped us in the market and from then on it was a short climb to wht i call the base camp.this is the place from where u can take an exorbitant horse ride to the highest peaks in kufri, but we had other ideas.so after a short stop for coffee and snacks and a visit to the zoo,we started to climb.

now for all future visitors of kufri,the guys with the horses below are just looking to rip u off...climb for about 10 minutes and u can get a horse at less than half the price.n thats what we did.i was a complete novice at riding a horse n so the initial part was a bit scary.i aways felt i was gonna fall off.neway so we continued the climb on horseback.

after a half hour of shouting at the horseman we finally reached (all this while vinieth was talkin to his horse,trying to explaqin to him the correct way to go up).the view was worth all the hardship not to mention horseshit on my trousers).the sky was a shde of blue like iv nevr seen before...the clouds were coming down to meet us.and we had reached a lovely lush green pleateau.this was the highes peak in kufri so the sky was all around,not just above....wish i cud describe it but words wont do it justice.here we left the horses and after taking in the view we went go karting!!yes u heard me right go karting!!it was awesome,according to their own claims,its the highest go karting track in the world.

the lunch at this place was awesome too.we had an extremely satisfying time there.though we couldv gone a bit further.we decided to get back to simla cuz vineith had to catch a bus to delhi.

overall i had an awesome trip thanx to kapil n vineith, 2 of my closest friends n x room mates.wish we can hav a lot more of these trips.

ps:thanx a lot to u if u hav managed to read so far.im not a grt fan of my own writing style so thanx for bearing with it for so long.

Kufri is beautiful place for the tourist and activities. This place is full of excitement where you can plan a tour without thinking so much. This place is generally used for the snow activity but you can visit the wildlife places also. The entire place of Kufri and Shimla is full of beauty that make my tour special and enjoying during my weekend.
