About Kasol for road travellers
Kasol is a riverside village at about 1,580 m in the Parvati valley, 31 km up a narrow road from Bhuntar. It's the base for some of Himachal's most popular short treks, including Kheerganga, which starts from Barshaini further up the valley, and for Manikaran's gurudwara and hot springs a few kilometres away. The valley road is slow and prone to slides in the monsoon, so the distances here take longer than they look. Many cafés close in winter.
