It is a wonderful hill station in the Himachal Pradesh state of India. Located amidst the snow-covered valleys of Himalayas, it is also a staging point for a number of treks and adventure sports.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apart from sightseeing, you can also indulge in the following activities in Manali.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paragliding<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The popular paragliding site in Manali is along the Solang Valley. There are many levels of paragliding activity available in Manali, from a minute to about half an hour. There are many companies serving this activity, however, we suggest to watch first and then start gliding because there are several unfateful incidents because of untrained and improper landings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rock climbing<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many fabulous hills for folks interested in rock climbing. We suggest not to simply climb up a hill. Seek professional help and guidance and climb up with suitable gears provided by the rock climbing activity centers.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4907\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4907\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gozocabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rock-climbing.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4907\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gozocabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rock-climbing.jpg?resize=960%2C640\" alt=\"Rock Climbing\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gozocabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rock-climbing.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gozocabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rock-climbing.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gozocabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rock-climbing.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4907\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rock climbing on the hilly terrain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hiking<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hiking is a long distance walk in the woods.
