If you are searching for a homestay in Kathot near Theog, Alpine Crest Homestay is a peaceful mountain retreat in Village Kathot near Theog, a short drive from Fagu on NH-5.

Why Stay Near Fagu?
Fagu is a small Himalayan village on NH-5, about 20 km beyond Kufri on the way to Narkanda. It sits at around 2,500 metres, surrounded by apple orchards, pine forests and open meadows with wide views of the surrounding ranges. Unlike Kufri and Shimla, Fagu sees far fewer tourists — it is the kind of place where the road goes quiet and the mountains feel close.
Travellers come to Fagu for the viewpoints, for the peace, and for the drive itself — the stretch between Kufri and Fagu is one of the most scenic in the upper Shimla hills. Staying at Alpine Crest Homestay near Theog gives you easy access to Fagu while keeping you close to Kufri, Theog and Shimla as well.
