Hello everyone,
I’m planning a trip to Himachal in July–August but a bit concerned about safety during monsoon. Are landslides and road blockages common during this time?
Also, which places are safer to visit in monsoon?
Traveling to Himachal in July–August is possible, but yes, landslides and road blockages are quite common during monsoon, especially in areas like Manali–Kullu and hilly highways. You may face delays or temporary road closures, so it’s important to keep buffer time in your plan. For safer options, you can consider places like Shimla, Dharamshala, or Dalhousie, as they are comparatively more accessible and stable during rains. Avoid high-risk or remote routes during heavy rainfall and always check weather and road status before traveling.
