Kufri is a half-hour's drive out of Shimla (12 km). Loaded with hundreds of picnic and look-out points, it even has a deer park. Something else you'll find in abundance here are the quaint souvenir shops. The Kufri slopes are a hot favourite with snow seekers. Kufri is famous for its wide panoramic views where deep valleys and forests rise towards the lofty Himalayas. An enjoyable walk through thick cedar woods one leads up to the mahasu peak. At Kufri, Himachal Tourism runs the Café Lalit. Kufri also house a mini zoo. From Kufri a fascinating drive leads on to Chail. 6 kms from Kufri along the Hindustan-Tibet Road is Fagu. Astride a mountain saddle it presents some breath taking scenery.
Kufri in winter is transformed into a fairy-tale picture. With snow covering the mountains and trees, this is the season when adventure sports are in full swing. Kufri has the oldest and one of the finest ski-slopes in the country. And the Resort has special facilities for winter sports. So what if you can't ski-you can always enjoy the thrill of tobogganing and sledging! Build a snowman, or go tramping through the silvery forests; just being in the snow is an exhilarating feeling. Kufri, one of the oldest places in India to be associated with skiing and the slopes are still in use during the winter. Above Kufri, the Mahasu ridge also has good slopes to offer for skiing delight. Kufri has fine slopes for beginners as well as for good skiers. It commands a panoramic view of the majestic Himalayas and perennial snows. Trekking to Mahasu peak is an exhilarating experience. It is full of ski slopes.
