Barot is a small village nestled in the lap of the Himalayas on the banks of the Uhl River and surrounded on both sides by parts of the Dhauladhar range. Around 75 km from Palampur, it’s a perfect off-beat getaway for those who want to relax in the middle of serene nature away from the crowd. You can even take a trolley from Jogindernagar to reach here. Spend a day trout fishing, nature walking or just relaxing. You can also visit the former summer palace of Mandi rulers. Barot serves as the gateway to the Nargu Wildlife Sanctuary which is home to a variety of flora and fauna, including goral, Himalayan black bear and pheasants.
