I preferred bike if you take off Road track to Bijli Mahadev you can enjoy on the way Himachal food at roadside of Maniramji. Dhaba is located right opposite to the Jana Waterfall Bijli Mahadev temple is another 24kms on an off roads track.

This temple is name because every few years lightning strikes the Shiv Lingam installed inside. The temple and lead to cracks it and then construction work on Shiv Lingam and backs to its original form. If you are confident about driving Skills on off-road tracks then you should explore route otherwise journey is very tough.  

Manikaran Kasol Pilgrimage

Enjoying Bijli Mahadev Temple i done my breakfast and ready to go Manikaran road Kasol. I retained the bike for my journey to Manikaran. By the way you can travel Manikaran on buses (Himachal roadways bus). I am flexible with a bike and it takes flexibility to Manikaran how much time to spend with there.

The road passes by Manikaran through Kullu bypass road. The narrow road turns are very sharp there is one side mountain and another a deep trench better to slow to ride is fine. If you come to Manali you shall definitely visit Manikaran Besides Gurudwara the Parvati rivers flow.

This view is worth watching at thousand times sounds of the rivers flows is so comfortable and relatable. Inside Gurudwara, you can experience the Spiritual listening, you can take bath in hot spring. If you visit Gurudwara you should definitely try Langar (kitchen community meals) you can stay night also rooms are available. The langar is open 24hours Besides Gurudwara. There is a Shiv temple where you can cook Rice and Chana within 10 min in a hots spring.
