About Us
Welcome to Himachali.blog
My name is Kartik Sharma, and I have been living in Himachal Pradesh for the last 29 years.
I started this blog because I genuinely love traveling through the mountains, exploring hidden villages, finding local food spots, and talking to people from small Himalayan towns that most tourists never see.
A lot of travel websites write about the same crowded destinations again and again.
But Himachal Pradesh is much bigger than the usual tourist circuit.
There are quiet valleys, old temples, forest trails, wooden villages, mountain lakes, local fairs, and roads that never make it to Instagram reels.
That’s the side of Himachal I want to document here.
Because I’m from Himachal Pradesh, I understand local Pahadi culture, traditions, food, festivals, and regional language. That helps me share practical travel information that regular travel blogs often miss.
On Himachali.blog, you’ll find:
- Hidden places in Himachal Pradesh
- Village travel guides
- Local food recommendations
- Trekking routes
- Budget travel tips
- Himachali culture and traditions
- Road trip itineraries
- Weather and seasonal travel advice
- Honest travel experiences

I try to keep the information simple, useful, and experience-based.
Some articles may also include affiliate links or advertisements to support the website. But I only recommend places, stays, or services that I genuinely think travelers may find useful.
Thanks for visiting Himachali.blog.
I hope this website helps you discover a quieter and more real side of Himachal Pradesh.
