Deep green pine valleys and layered misty mountain ranges in Naggar, Manali
2,000m Altitude · 22 km from Manali
Naggar · Himachal Pradesh

Days are for wandering.

Naggar sits quietly above the Beas river at 2,000m — the slower, greener side of the mountain. An old capital of the Kullu valley, it offers an artist's legacy, a heritage castle, orchards, and forest trails. Everything below is a short walk or drive from House of Hulda.

Seasonal Harvest

A valley made of orchards.

The hillside surrounding House of Hulda is covered in apple, plum, peach, and apricot trees. In the spring, the valley fills with soft pink and white blossoms. By late summer and autumn, the branches hang heavy with ripe organic fruit.

Guests are welcome to wander the orchard, read under the shade of the trees, and pick fresh apples straight from the branch.
