Mashobra At 2149m, 12 km out of Shimla is this beautiful suburb, surrounded by a thick forest. From here, a pedestrian track leads down to Sipur. Which is an exquisite glade shaded by ancient deodar trees. Steams of cool water gently divide it. Through thick woods, a side road leads to Bekhalty. The pastoral picture is completed by the temples on the edge. An annual fair is held at Sipur every April. A trek to the Shali peak - the highest in the area - can be made from Mashobra. Craignano with its rest house - and once the estate of an Italian confectioner is close to Mashobra.
Mashobra has several excellent picnic spots. Mashobra is the site of the annual Sipi fair in June. Mashobra and Craignano, a place of unique beauty is the oak and pine retreat of Mashobra, 9.6 km (6 miles) from the Ridge and 12 km (7.4 miles) from the Shimla bus stand. It is unbeatable for an ideal interlude beneath oak and pine. To dream the night away and enjoy the sylvan surroundings is the equally beautiful Rest House of Craignano and the Circuit House of Fairlawns, which some tourists, just come to look and admire. On top of the Hill, for the naturalists, it is considered to be among the most beautiful rest houses in the Shimla Hills. A temple dedicated to Goddess Durga is worth visiting.
