Situated in the extreme north, this state attracts maximum tourists every year irrespective of all seasons. Since it is so diverse in offering multiple choices in terms of trekking and traveling for all age groups, a huge number of bag packers move to Himachal to quench their thirst for traveling more than any other place in India. Due to this, places like <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/shimla-manali-trip-itinerary\/\">Shimla and Manali<\/a><\/strong> can definitely feel crowded to some people. If you are of the same opinion and were thinking of an offbeat destination for your next trip, then mentioned below is a list of a few unexplored places in Himachal Pradesh near Delhi that can well serve the purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before we go any further into the topic, let me first mention that my criteria for listing the places below are three.

Situated in the Western Himalayas it covers a region of 55,673 kilometers with an altitude of 350 to 7,000 meters above sea level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The geographical location offers the maximum importance in its tourism. This place holds many small regions that are less traveled and hardly explored. People with a taste for exploring new places tend to set their paths to those locations to satisfy their hunger for traveling and knowing more. Himachal offers a perfect opportunity to its visitors to travel as per their interest; either to the most popular travel destinations like Manali or to test and challenge themselves a bit by visiting the lesser or unexplored places in Himachal to witness the raw and rough-hew beauty of it.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unexplored_Places_in_Himachal_Pradesh\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Unexplored Places in Himachal Pradesh<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If we leave out the most popular destinations of Himachal such as Shimla, Kullu, Manali, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/dharamshala-mcleodganj-trip-plan\/\">Dharamshala<\/a><\/strong>, Chamba, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/dalhousie\/\">Dalhousie<\/a><\/strong>, Kangra, Kasauli, Solan, etc. there are places which are still less explored and have much more generous offerings in terms of landscape representation. In this article, we are going to list down such places which are still less traveled and partially unexplored by many of our fellow travelers.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_choose_offbeat_places_in_Himachal\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Why choose offbeat places in Himachal<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An offbeat destination comes with many more and new sides of natural beauty. The places are less crowded and offer more scenic beauty rather than shopping hubs and multi-cuisine restaurants which we commonly see in the famous tourists\u2019 destinations of Himachal. It depends on the traveler\u2019s priority though and requirement behind choosing a place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Let us first talk about a few advantages and disadvantages of choosing an offbeat destination.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Advantages of Offbeat locations:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Witness the incredible and untouched beauty of nature<\/li>\n<li>Build a pure connection between nature and yourself<\/li>\n<li>Explore places as per your choice<\/li>\n<li>A relaxing tent stay in mother nature\u2019s lap with a bonfire and more bonding<\/li>\n<li>Experience a lifetime memory and bag a story to tell your friends<\/li>\n<li>Memorable bond with locals and experience their unique culture<\/li>\n<li>Make yourself a part of the place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Disadvantages of Offbeat locations:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>New challenges and unexpected surprises regarding roads and stay<\/li>\n<li>Accommodation (might be discomforting for some)<\/li>\n<li>No shopping zone<\/li>\n<li>Nothing fancy to eat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is said that a good thing never comes in a beautiful or large package. It is completely you who identifies the quality and make it good for you. Same way, going to an offbeat destination may surprise and even challenge you; but as long as you are willing enough to oversee a few discomforts, it may very well be the destination and vacation that you have been longing for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here is a list of offbeat destinations which will definitely quench your thirst for touring the unknown places of Himachal.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Malana\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Malana<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you wish to see the untouched and most ancient village of Himachal Pradesh, then Malana should be the first tick in your bucket list. This small village is situated on the bank of Parvati River and home for very few families. This village is separated and surrounded by lustrous greenery and snow-clad mountains which gives a picturesque view to it. One can easily identify the similarity of a calendared landscape village with Malana. This village is set up at an altitude of 9,500 feet above sea level. There are few untold facts about Malana that are hardly discussed.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>The most famous weeds:<\/strong><\/span> Malana is famous for its incredibly good quality weeds or cannabis resin.

Situated in the Sirmaur district, Renuka Ji is located at an altitude of 672 meters above sea level. The place is named after the great Renuka Lake, situated in the middle of the Himalayan dense alpine forest, offering the visitors a breathtaking view. Renuka Ji is famous for its location and also offers adventure sports like mountaineering, climbing, and trekking, etc. Visitors can also enjoy boating in leisure.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Historical Importance: <\/span><\/strong>It is believed that the Renuka Lake is the embodiment of Sage Parshuram\u2019s (one of the ten avatars of Lord Vishnu) mother and the wife of sage Jamadagini. As per the local tale, an evil force killed the husband of Renuka Ji and tried to abduct her. Renuka Ji got rid of the evil by immersing herself into the lake. The lake got this name after she died in it.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A rare Connection with Nature: <\/span><\/strong>This small place has very limited things to offer but it\u2019s pure and untouched beauty crosses its limitation and makes it unique.
