7-Day Manali Family Itinerary 2026: Kids Will Love It

The first thing you notice pulling into Manali in late May is the smell - wet pine and diesel smoke mixing in a way that somehow works. We spent seven days testing every waterfall trail, gondola ride, and roadside maggi stall this mountain town throws at families, and I came back with an itinerary I'd hand to any parent planning a summer escape from the plains.
