Camp Potters Hill Shimla

By PV -

For those who think shimla is like any other hill station which is commercialised and over crowded and there is nothing new to explore then i would suggest explore potter hills. this place is not much explored and local people also are not much aware of this.



Camp Potters Hill Shimla is certainly an ideal retreat for those who are nature lovers. The camp provides comfortable accommodations, along with outdoor adventure activities in several forms.

Some quick reviews

I have explored this place this time when i was in shimla. Its near summer hill. A complete jungle drive with pine trees. Within the jungle this potter camp is created where you have facility to stay in cottages or tree house or tent. You can enjoy barbeques in open jungle. This place is away from hustle bustle and you are in the jungle with cold weather. You would enjoy this place if you are in group. You also have hammocks in lapse of nature where you can relax, read novel or just be lying watching sky and hearing different sounds of nature.

i personally liked this place and would recommend to people who always opt for corbett for getaways.

Potters Hill Adventure Camp is a twelve-month destination. In springs, the place blossoms with Rhododendrons (flower of the Himalayas), while summers still have bonfire at night. In autumn, nature prepares for the cold & the site turns honey yellow, while in winters, you can see and touch snow.



At Camp Potters Hill, the idea is to enjoy a combination of Eco-Tourism, Adventure Tourism & Leisure Camping.



you can enjoy Day & Night Treks, Indoor games like Carrom, Chess, Scrabble & many more Outdoor games like Cricket, Basketball, Throwball, Volleyball & Badminton, Picnic lunches in the forest, meadows & apple orchards Rock Climbing & Rappeling, Burma Bridge, Commando Rope Walk & Valley Crossing. 

Rafting Trips can be organized on special request at Tattapani, which is 50 kms from the camp.
