·2 Days
EXPERIENCE RATING
New on EvynxShimla's colonial ridge, a toy-train ride and the Kufri-Viceregal Lodge excursion.
About this experience
Two guided days across Shimla's colonial core and its Kufri excursion, for travellers already based in town. The first is a walk along the Ridge and Mall Road - Christ Church, Scandal Point, and the Gaiety Theatre - followed by a short heritage ride on the UNESCO-listed Kalka-Shimla toy train and an evening at Lakkar Bazaar's wooden handicraft lane. The second drives out to Kufri's Himalayan Nature Park and a Mahasu Peak pony ride, the Viceregal Lodge's 1888 Elizabethan gardens on Observatory Hill, and a sunset ride on the Shimla Ropeway. A private guide and SUV cover the Kufri day; the ridge day stays on foot, and accommodation between the two is arranged independently.

- The Ridge & Christ Church - 1857 Gothic church, the second oldest in north India
