It was part of the deal with the caretaker that we would relinquish control over the room as soon as possible the next morning so that arrangements could be made for the \u2018honorable\u2019 dignitary. We were up and about by 8:30 and then went down to the market to have a quick but not very tasty breakfast of paranthas and omelets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was then time to bid adieu to Sachin and Himanshu and we wished them luck in fetching their bikes back. They had managed to hire a 4&#215;4 Bolero pickup for the task for what seemed to be a reasonable amount of money.

The driver stopped the vehicle in the middle of the road, for apparently no reason. Got down. Examined the rear right tire with an eye of a marksman.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It looked fine to me, but somehow he was convinced that something was wrong. He went back in. Moved the vehicle just about an inch further. Got down and checked again. Came up with the conclusion that a certain nut was loose which would result in the rear axle letting go of the tire and everything else falling apart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was amazed at how swiftly he was able to diagnose that problem while driving the vehicle. I would&#8217;ve probably stopped 100 meters after such a catastrophe! With the problem figured out, he started looking for a solution as well. Thanks to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bsnl.co.in\/\">BSNL<\/a><\/strong> and its mayajaal all around us in the rural areas, help was on its way for him. Being content with the fact that he will be taken care of by someone, we moved on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/delhi-to-pabbar-valley-chanshal-pass\/\">Delhi to Pabbar Valley \u2013 Chanshal Pass Road Trip<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Killar_to_Udaipur_Road_Conditions\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Killar to Udaipur Road Conditions<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thankfully there were no more \u2018bangs\u2019 for us as we ambled along. The road condition from Killar to Udaipur is horrible, to put it mildly. It is dusty, has loose rocks, ascends and descends randomly, and is of course bumpy. The vistas, although beautiful, are repetitive if you know what I mean. The valley is narrow and repeats itself one mountain after the other.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It took us about 5 hours to do the stretch (minus the lunch break at Tindi), but it felt a lot more than that. It reminded me of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/road-trip-to-zanskar-and-ladakh-exploring-offbeat-ladakh\/\">Zanskar<\/a><\/strong> stretch a lot but was probably worse. At least in Zanskar, it was not loose gravel and sand and it is surely not repetitive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moving on towards Udaipur.

It was not as pretty as the one in Killar and not half as clean but it was clean enough for Aarti to compromise. The price, being Rs. 200 a night, is a steal though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/delhi-to-jim-corbett-road-trip\/\">Delhi to Jim Corbett Road Trip \u2013 An Exciting Adventure<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I initially suspected that the money goes into the caretaker\u2019s pocket, but my suspicion was put to rest when I was made to sign for the room.

One can find a very peculiar combination of religious artifacts at the temple.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For example, we saw a flag with \u2018Om\u2019 written on it tied alongside a prayer flag and a mani stone which had both Tibetan and Hindu inscriptions. Such religious bonhomie is a rare sight, maybe the rest of the country should learn from temples such as these.

Being on the other side of the river, it does boast of views of peaks just above Udaipur. We were unlucky to have witnessed a cloudy evening though. It was still drizzling when we sat down for a cup of hot tea and Maggi at one of the dhabas in the village.

The valley is low-lying and pretty famous in the trekking circuit. The motorable road is mostly level and ends at the village Shikito. People normally begin their trek at Udaipur taking 5 days to reach the Miyar glacier, walking all the way along the Miyar Nallah. For more details, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/miyar-valley-himachal-pradesh\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Miyar Valley<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Nallah is pretty wide and is more of a river if you ask me. For lazy people like us, the motorable road is just the boon required though. We managed to witness the beauty of the valley without having to take the challenge of a trek.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We started early at 5:30 in the morning, having settled the dues with the caretaker at the guest house the night before. The road climbs northwards right in the middle of Udaipur town just after one crosses the Nallah that divides the town (after if you are coming from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-travel-guide\/\">Manali<\/a><\/strong>, before otherwise).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is a well-marked tarred road initially, frequented by buses that ferry locals to and fro from Udaipur. To begin with, the climb is gentle and it is only after the first village that the entire valley unfolds in front of your eyes. A wide valley with all kinds of trees and plenty of agricultural lands dotted with tiny hamlets is what awaited at Miyar.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Miyar_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Miyar Valley<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The valley is surrounded by peaks, many of which are white all throughout the year. And to make the picture-perfect, a wide-raging river (Miyar Nallah) runs through it. What made the already lovely morning even better was the sight of smoke billowing out of every house in the settlements we crossed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the ridge beyond which the Miyar valley opens up<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-30824 size-full\" title=\"miyar valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1.jpg\" alt=\"miyar valley\" width=\"1024\" height=\"686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1-585x392.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/killar-to-manali-1-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Miyar Nallah, or rather a river bisects the valley.

Wanting to try out a new place, we sauntered towards Old Manali. Once there, we found a cafe which looked nice, but on entering we found only foreigners in it, and all stoned.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There was no food available since the cafe was shutting down the next day for winter. We looked around and found another place &#8211; Pizza Olive &#8211; and what a lovely place it was! Awesome pizzas and lovely ambiance. This too was about to shut down in a day or two, and we were surprised to know that it had a branch in Goa which functions in the winter when it is peak season there and when the Manali outlet is closed. Smart huh?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That was pretty much the end of our short trip to Sach pass. The next day we just drove back to Delhi, a drive which we can now do with our eyes closed.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Killar to Udaipur to Manali to Delhi &#8211; Conclusion<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I hope the travelogue, pictures, and information above on traveling from Killar to Udaipur to Manali while exploring Miyar Valley were of help.
