Top Attractions in Kandaghat
Kandaghat is a small town in Solan district, Himachal Pradesh, located on the Kalka-Shimla highway between Dharampur and Shimla. It sits at about 1,400 metres and serves as the access point for Chail, the former retreat of the Maharaja of Patiala. The town is unassuming, but its position on the mountain road puts some of the best lower-Shimla-belt experiences within a short drive.
- Chail Palace and Wildlife Sanctuary: About 28 km from Kandaghat, Chail is a hilltop settlement built by the Maharaja of Patiala after he was banned from Shimla by the British. The palace (now a hotel), the world’s highest cricket ground, and the surrounding cedar forest are the main draws. The wildlife sanctuary has barking deer, sambhar, and Himalayan birds.
- Chail Cricket Ground: This famous ground, at over 2,400 metres, holds the record for the highest cricket pitch in the world. Even if you are not a cricket fan, the setting, a flat green field surrounded by deodar trees at altitude, is striking. The Maharaja built it in the early 1900s, and it is still used for matches.
- Kandaghat Railway Station (Toy Train): The Kalka-Shimla narrow-gauge railway stops at Kandaghat, and the stretch of track from here upwards includes some of the most dramatic tunnel and bridge sequences on the line. The station itself is small and has a colonial-era charm.
- Kuthar Fort: About 4 km from Kandaghat, Kuthar Fort is a lesser-known heritage site built by the Kuthar rulers. The fort has stone walls, old wooden balconies, and valley views. It is not heavily promoted, so you may have it mostly to yourself. The architecture mixes Pahari and colonial influences.
- Timber Trail (Parwanoo): About 25 km from Kandaghat towards the plains, the Timber Trail resort has a famous cable car ride that crosses a valley between two hilltops. The views of the Shivalik foothills from the gondola are wide and dramatic, especially in the late afternoon light.
Best Time to Visit: March to June and September to November. Monsoon brings landslide risk, and winters are cold, especially on the higher road to Chail.
Getting There: Kandaghat sits on NH 22 with a stop on the Kalka-Shimla toy train line. Chandigarh is about 60 km away, and Shimla is roughly 30 km uphill.
Kandaghat is where the road to Chail begins and the toy train starts to climb in earnest. It sits at the junction of two excellent routes, and that alone makes it a town worth knowing.
Things to Do in Kandaghat
Kandaghat and the roads branching off from it offer palace visits, forest drives, and the kind of mountain-railway moments that the Shimla belt is famous for.
- Drive to Chail Through the Cedar Forest: The road from Kandaghat to Chail climbs through dense deodar and cedar forest with the valley dropping away on one side. The drive takes about an hour, and the silence when you stop and step out of the car is immediate and complete. Several pull-off points along the road offer views worth pausing for.
- Visit the Chail Cricket Ground: Walk onto the highest cricket ground in the world and stand at the crease surrounded by trees and sky. The ground is open to visitors, and the flat, green surface against the mountain backdrop makes for a striking photograph. A short walk downhill from the ground leads to the Chail Gurudwara and a viewpoint.
- Ride the Toy Train From Kandaghat to Shimla: The narrow-gauge stretch from Kandaghat to Shimla passes through some of the line’s best tunnels and bridges. The train is slow, and the valley views from the windows are at their most dramatic on clear mornings. Tickets sell out fast in season, so book early.
- Explore Kuthar Fort: The fort is a quiet, off-the-radar stop that takes less than an hour to explore. The wooden balconies and the stone walls show the architectural style of the smaller Pahari kingdoms. The caretaker is usually around and can share some local history.
- Take the Timber Trail Cable Car at Sunset: The gondola ride crosses the valley in about 15 minutes, and the late-afternoon light on the Shivalik foothills is the best time to ride it. The views from the top station extend across multiple ridges on clear days. It is a popular attraction, so expect a short queue on weekends.
Tip: If you plan to visit both Chail and ride the toy train, stay overnight in Kandaghat or Chail rather than trying to fit both into a day trip from Shimla. The distances are short, but the narrow mountain roads take time.
Note: The Chail Palace is now a heritage hotel, and non-guests may need permission to enter the palace grounds. The cricket ground and the surrounding forest walks are freely accessible.
Kandaghat does not demand attention for itself. It is the starting point for two of the best experiences on the Shimla road: the train going up and the Chail road going sideways into the forest.
