Khirsu is a small, beautiful town, perched at an altitude of 1700 meters above sea level. It’s a quiet and peaceful town surrounded on all sides by oak and deodar trees and apple orchards.
Khirsu is the window to the snow-crested Trishul, Nanda Devi, Nandakot and Panchchuli peaks. There are very few places in the Himalayas whose beauty can be compared to that of Khirsu, that affords a spectacular 300 km-wide panoramic view of the Himalayas at every turn.
The quiet and peaceful hill station is perfect to enjoy a leisurely stroll, admire the varied Himalayan flora and spot some beautiful birds. Khirsu is also home to the ancient temple of Ghandiyal Devta, a popular destination for devotees.
