Plucking tea at the Himalayas
Surround yourself with a green tea plantation in the Kangra valley of Himachal Pradesh - an oasis of peace and nature. Here, you decide whether and how active you want to be, picking tea!
 
The landscape in the Kangra valley of Himachal Pradesh in the Himalayas of India is heavenly - framed by high snowy mountains, there are densely forested green hills with occasional rustic wooden facades and roofs of handsome old farmhouses standing out between the fir trees; on the hills, the golden Buddhist temple of exiled Tibetans shines in the sun from afar. Crystal-clear rivers cut through the valley in wide, natural paths, from which protrude large smooth rocks washed by the water. Next to this, geometrically precise terraces of green rice fields are applied filigree.
 
The air of this landscape is incredibly fresh and invigorating . At the same time, the sun is strong with year-round maximum values ​​during the day of between 20 to 30 degrees.
 
The valley and the higher mountains give an ideal climate for tea cultivation , but also for tropical fruits.
