About Us
Tucked into a coniferous recess at the bottom of a short winding path (roughly 200 metres), Tirthan Anglers’ Retreat is hemmed in by a lively trout-rich stream on one side with terraced fields and woodlands along the others.
It is located at 6000 feet on the right bank of the Palachan in Barnagi village, six kilometres beyond Gushaini and a mere four kilometres short of Bathad, the road head. The retreat’s enviable setting assures it a seclusion most welcome and a clime most genial.
What’s more, anglers need look no further than the boulder-strewn riverbank bordering the retreat. Pools teeming with freshwater fish, line most of the stretch here.
Rooms
Amidst the tranquil valley, rooms stand tall, Where crisp mountain air meets comfort’s call, With AC’s hum and bunk beds snug, Attached bathrooms, a retreat unplugged. Awake to breakfast with nature’s thrall.

“Once you have trekked the steep path to the Retreat, you will feel you have reached a friend’s special haven by the gurgling Palchan river.
From the friendly and proactive tips to make sure you get to the place comfortably to the warm welcome from Mr Dilsher and his team; the nicely designed sunlight-flooded rooms, the freshly cooked homely food and the BRILLIANT location on the shores of the singing, silvery Palchan with plenty of comfortable seating options….”

“Absolute gem of a place, be it the location, hospitality, food…..we were here for around 5 days in last week of Oct (road travel takes some time, hence it makes sense to stay here by 5-6 days minimum), we took this location as the base and covered locations like jalori pass, sarloskar lake, Gidhari waterfall, Gushaini-Ropa village, sirchi village….the entire place is so pristine with the tirthan lake flowing nearby….Climate was absolutely fantastic, Dolu (chef) is an absolute masters at his art……Dev (guide) is equally good when taking you around…..fishing was also a nice experience….overall entire credit to Dilsher for ensuring such a fantastic experience!”

“With over crowded hill stations in India Tirthan as a place is a pleasant surprise. Cheery on the cake is this beautiful resort Tirthan Angler s retreat. Imagine having a cup of tea sitting right next to the river and surrounded with lush green mountains- it can’t get any better for a nature lover. Simple rooms – home cooked food by experienced staff. Every smiling team. We spent 4 days here and did not find any need to go anywhere as we just wanted to soak in nature. All the best to you guys. We hope to visit you soon.”
