Kasauli is a small cantonment town in Himachal Pradesh, perched at 1,927 meters amidst thick pine and cedar forests. Established as a hill station by the British in 1842, it retains much of its colonial charm with Victorian-era buildings, quiet pathways, and an unhurried pace of life.
Unlike crowded hill stations, Kasauli offers peace and tranquility. The town is small enough to explore on foot, with the main attraction being its atmosphere rather than specific sights. Walking through pine-scented trails, enjoying the mountain air, and watching spectacular sunsets is what Kasauli is all about.
Key landmarks include the beautiful Christ Church (Anglican church from 1853), Monkey Point (highest point with Hanuman temple inside Air Force area), and the historic Kasauli Brewery (one of Asia's oldest, producing beer since 1855). The town is also a gateway to nearby attractions like Timber Trail (ropeway experience), Dagshai, and Sabathu.
