— About Bhaloli
Perched at 2,100 metres above sea level, nestled on the edge of the Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary, and just a scenic trek from the iconic Khajjiar meadow — Mystic Village (brand name of Bhaloli) is where time slows down, and tradition comes alive.
Operated by the Gabdika Self Help Group, Mystic Village is home to eight community-run homestays that embody the values of Aatmanirbhar Bharat and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Every room offers vistas of the Pir Panjal, Dhauladhar and Shivalik ranges.
Recognised with the Silver Award at the Indian Responsible Tourism Awards (Outlook Traveller) and the Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice — a place where every stay directly contributes to the local Gaddi economy.
