Karol Ka Tibba (hill) | solan | trekking in Solan | Visiting place in solan | Himachal pradesh
A 5.6 kilometre day trek leads you through fir groves, sprawling grasslands, dense forests, small ponds, a mysterious cave and panoramic views. The beauty of Karol ka Tibba trek is that it fits this immense natural bounty in a short day trek. Karol ka Tibba is the highest hill around Solan town in Himachal Pradesh. In this trek we visit Karol temple; a temple dedicated to goddess Kali situated at the top of Karol Ka Tibba. The panoramic view from the temple is beautiful and panoramic. The trekking route also passes through the famous Pandava Gufa or Pandava cave, believed to be the oldest and longest cave in the Himalayas.
Trek Detail
The trek starts from the Rani Laxmibai statue at Chambaghat. Chambaghat is a small suburb, 6 kilometres from Solan city centre on the Chandigarh Shimla National Highway. From the national highway, veer into a narrow concrete by-lane that houses the State Bank of India ATM and a Yamaha motorcycle dealer. A 100 meters along the concrete path you will pass a Gurudwara (Sikh temple) to your left. Beyond the Gurudwara the concrete path rises sharply as you leave civilisation behind and start a sharp ascent. After 500 meters the concrete path turns eases into a paved brick trail. This brick trail has a gentle slope and it is a welcome respite after the steep concrete path. The brick trail winds its way through a beautiful grove of fir trees and offers numerous viewpoints over Solan city.

Solan is the district headquarters of Solan district (created on 1 September 1972) in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. The largest Municipal Council of Himachal Pradesh, it is located 46 kilometres (29 mi) south of the state capital, Shimla. At an average elevation of 1,600 metres (5,200 ft).[1] The place is named after the Hindu goddess Shoolini devi. Every year in the month of June, a fair celebrating the goddess is held, featuring a 3-day mela at the central Thodo grounds. Solan was the capital of the erstwhile princely state, Bhagat.
It is known as the Mushroom city of India because of the vast mushroom farming in the area as well as the Directorate of Mushroom Research (DMR) situated at Chambaghat. Solan is crowned as the City of Red Gold, in reference to the bulk production of tomatoes in the area.[1] The town is situated between Chandigarh (joint capital of Punjab and Harayana) and Shimla (state capital), on the Kalka-Shimla National Highway-22. The Kalka-Shimla narrow gauge heritage railway line, built by the British passes through Solan and is a recognised World Heritage site.
