Places for a great bonfire bash in Shimla
Periphery of Shimla town is dotted with open patches, meadows, small villages, sprawling farmland, and lush green forests, which makes Shimla a perfect place to relish your outdoorsy life. But this doesn’t mean that you start setting up a camp or make a cracking bonfire anywhere.
Places like Kufri, Mashobra, Potters Hill, Shoghi, and Junga are some places near Shimla to enjoy camping and bonfire. These camping hotspots are just an hour away from the city centre, making them an ideal location for travellers.
How camping and bonfire can add a fun factor to your weekend trip?
Everyone loves the crackling sound of bonfire on a chilly evening of hills. A bonfire can add a fun element to a dull evening. You can enjoy a bonfire with family and friends during a causal get-together, weekend trip, camping, after party, or on a festive occasion. Sitting around a bonfire with family and friends is a fun pastime. When you roast mushrooms and spend a great time with friends, it’s easy to forget about the risks involved with outdoor fires.
