Rasol is a tiny hill village reachable only by a steep trek, which means only the most committed peace-seekers make it there. No roads, no noise, just a handful of houses and an occasional goat. Why it beats Manali: It doesn’t care about your itinerary. Or your playlist. You can hike up, switch off, and just plan to stay forever.
Manali had its moment. Now it’s time for these quiet Himachali gems to shine — softly, of course. If you want peace that doesn’t come with a room service menu or loud tourists in puffer jackets, pack light and pick a village.
