The temperature drops under zero and the region is clad in snowfall, making it an outstanding experience to enjoy Manali. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summers are also a good time when the temperature remains between 10 to 25 degrees celsius. Folks like to visit Manali in monsoons too, as the place looks and feels dreamy and mystical during rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How To Get There<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your own car if you have experience driving in hilly and rocky terrains, or else hire a taxi with an experienced driver. Only hardcore bikers should take a bike trip to Manali. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, take a bus from Delhi to Manali. Private bus operators offer tickets for as low as Rs 1000. Self-hire cars are also available at good discounts online. The shortest distance between two cities is roughly 550 kilometres, reachable in 11 to 12 hours by road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Route Options<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three scenic routes you can take.
