APPLE  ‘ COUNTRY ‘  TOUR

( One Night Two Days Tour Package with Guide)

Located on the Shimla-Rohru route, Kharapathar is located at almost 9000 feet above sea level. It falls in the middle of the main apple belt of this part of the State.  It is located quite scenically in a forest of deodar trees and apple orchards.
