 HOW
TO GET THERE
Air: There is always the option of flying to Shimla

Rail: The ideal way of covering the Kalka-Shimla
track is by the toy train. It takes five hours from Kalka
to get to Kandaghat. The toy train with a maximum of half
a dozen bogies chugs through the most thickly forested tracks,
breathtaking bends, deep ravines and never-ending tunnels.
Road: Chail is about 86-km from Kalka via Kandaghat.
The approach of Chail is along the Kalka-Shimla route. One
has to take a detour from Kandaghat. From Kandaghat, it
is an hour and a half journey by road to Chail.

 CLIMATE
Chail and its surrounding areas are a delight for tourists
in every season. It is charming in summer, fascinating in
autumn when the fields and the forests are covered with
a cloak of russet and gold and, of course, in winter it
is nothing less than a paradise, when the snow casts its
mantle and remains till the beginning of spring in April.
