Camp has the amazing beautiful cozy look of Machaan beneath a clean and hygienic bathroom with running hot water. We relaxed there in the afternoon, later one of the team members took us to sunset point which is a 10 to 15 min walk away near a village house. We reached 20 mins before sunset and were mesmerized by the view from there. Palampur valley in front, Palpung Sherbling Monastery, forest, and Himalayan snow peaks from Sunset point.
