Bharmour
Spend 1–2 days in Bharmour: see the Chaurasi Temple complex and nearby waterfalls; a night in a local hotel if you want a relaxed pace.
Bharmour is a historic hill‑town in Himachal Pradesh, 60 km from Chamba. Its 84‑temple Chaurasi complex, waterfalls and wildlife sanctuary are walkable; limited services mean a short stay works best.
