Hill Stations in India
Famous hill stations in India are located in Srinagar, Gulmarg and Sonmarg in Jammu & Kashmir, Shimla and Manali in Himachal Pradesh, Mussoorie, Nainital and Kausani in Uttarakhand, Mount Abu in Rajasthan, Darjeeling, Gangtok and Kalimpong in East of India, and Munnar, Ooty and Kodaikanal in South of India are amongst the loveliest hill stations frequently visited by many people for activities like relaxing, trekking and spending quality time with the family and friends.
India is full of hill stations and offers some of the most spectacular landscapes in the world. With the highest mountain ranges in the world, the Himalayas, running north to east, Aravalli and Vindhya ranges across western and central India and Western ghats in western and southern parts, these misty, mystical and serene hill stations of India are a perfect holiday option.
The hill stations are high-altitude town, used especially by European colonialists, as a place of refuge from the summer heat. Several hill stations served as summer capitals of Indian provinces, princely states, or, in the case of Simla, of British India itself. Since Indian Independence, the role of these hill stations as summer capitals has largely ended, but many hill stations remain popular summer resorts.
