Outdoor trip

Craignano is an old pre independence era retreat, named after the Italian countess of Craignano. In 1890 Craignano was turned in to the united service club. Craignano’s another claim to fame is the world’s highest water lift (7657 ft) built by the British that still serves Shimla.

Set amidst a forest of Cedar Pine and Oak, Craignano 2279mts, with its sublime weather (10-20 degree Celsius) is an ideal summer getaway. At a distance of 13kms from Shimla town, Camp Craignano is a perfect place to unwind. The natural beauty here is boundless, inviting you to walk its paths or just laze in the summer shade.

The camp offers multifarious adventure activities in its surroundings. There are numerous pathways for short hikes in the verdant forests, where we also find spots for rock climbing and Rappelling, the trails here are just perfect to go mountain biking, and the flora and fauna is a nature lover’s delight. At a distance of 39 kms from the camp is Tattapani, on the banks of river Sutlej, where one can indulge in river rafting. At the camp we can do rope course activities (Burma bridge, Tarolene Traverse, Zip lines etc).
