Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival Pragpur in Himachal Pradesh & check in at your heritage country manor.
Post breakfast excursion to the Dam.
The Maharana Pratap Sagar reservoir in Kangra with its 42 km length and 2 km breadth, offers a variety of activities in close collaboration with the Directorate of Mountaineering and Allied Sports. Year long activities include swimming, water-skiing, surfing, kayaking, rowing, canoeing and sailing.
The countryside is ideal for low-level treks and walks particularly for those interested in nature study and bird watching. The River Beas with its unspoilt banks (6 km) offers the possibility of swimming and angling during season. The area also lends itself admirably to walks and picnics.
Post lunch is at leisure to walk around this quaint little town known for its heritage classification.The little immaculately unchanged 300 year old hamlet has been named a heritage zone and still maintains its unchanged shops, cobbled streets, ornamental village tank, mud plastered and slate roofed houses. It has a quaint market where several silversmiths ply their trade and will quickly modify trinkets to satisfy individual taste. The several village weavers will make shawls and blankets to order and tailors will sew dresses overnight.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
