Manali,according to legend, was born when the waters of the Great Deluge receded and the seventh Manu's ark came to rest on a hillside in this valley. As the earth dried up there came up a place of breathtaking beauty which was named after the great sage. Over the last decade Manali has grown from a back of the beyond Himachali town to a busy tourist destination. Surrounded by towering peaks at arms length, Manali's major asset is its proximity to the snowline, never more then a few hours drive from the town nestling at a comfortable 2,050 metres. It is the centre of a flourishing orchard industry, a popular honeymoon destination and trailhead for numerous treks.
