The lush wooded pine forest in patnitop offers ample opportunity for trekking. This place acts as a good starting point for short and long treks to the nearby mountains. The one-day walk to shiva-garh at an altitude of 3,500 m, which is about 11 km away from patnitop, is quite exhilarating. Also there is a rich selection of peaceful and scenic spots for picnic lovers. The only sound one hears is the tinkling of bells around the neck of goats and cows and the rustling of fiber and twigs as one walks in the lush meadow in a dream world of ones own.
