Hotel Chail Camp, Chail
Enroute to the frontier of civilisation
in the Himalayas and back, the Banjara Camp
 at
Chail is a welcome break, a transit camp, if you like. At 2,000m,
Chail is just 45 kms from the state capital, Shimla. Another
picturesque, thickly forested tract of land, Chail owes its
allegiance to the Maharaja of Patiala who wanted to build his palace
on a hill from where he could look down at Shimla. Chail is a few
hundred meters higher, and so suited him perfectly.
The maharaja's palace, build on the lines of a Georgian mansion, is
today a hotel that combines old world splendour with modern
comforts.
Chail, with its carpet of lush green meadows, is also famous for the
world's highest cricket pitch. And, while from one side of Chail,
you can see the twinkling nights of Shimla, from the other side you
get a view of the highest peak in this region of the Himalayas,
Choor Chandni, which literally means 'the mountain of the silver
bangle'.
