Narkanda, 63 km from Shimla on NH-5, is a quiet hill town at 2,708 m known for apple orchards, ski slopes and the Hatu Mata Temple atop Hatu Peak (3,400 m). The drive from Shimla passes through Theog and Matiana — the heart of Himachal's apple country — with terraced orchards lining both sides of the road. In winter (Jan–Feb) Narkanda receives enough snow for the HPDC ski slope to open; in summer it's a cool overnight getaway from the Shimla heat.
The road is paved and in good condition year-round. The final 7 km climb to Hatu Peak is a narrow, steep forest road best done in an SUV or Innova. Stokes Farm, one of India's oldest apple farms, is worth a stop at Kotgarh, 8 km before Narkanda.
