This is the highest point in Kasauli, the place where Lord Hanuman is believed to have set his feet while on his way to look for the Sanjeevani buti (herb). Around 4 km from the Kasauli bus stand, at its top, is a temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman that lies within the premises of the Air Force base. As such, there are a few restrictions: one is not allowed to carry bags or cameras inside. The hike up to the temple can be a bit difficult for those who are not used to climbing, but it is worth the effort. The views from atop the hill are simply magnificent if the day is clear. You can watch the brilliant sparkle of the Sutlej river as it makes its way through the plains and the pure beauty of the snow-capped peaks of the Dhauladhar Range.
A short walk up from Sunset point you will find a trail leading to another viewpoint Gilbert Hill. It's not very famous and very few travellers actually go there. But the view from Gilbert Point is breathtakingly beautiful and in fact better than Sunset Point. Gilbert Hill is an army area though and you need to return from there by 18:30.
Situated about 1 km from the bus stand. Sunset point offers a magnificent view of the nearby hill regions. On a clear day, you may be able to view Chandigarh from up there.
