Dear Students, Parents, Faculty and Staff, 

Greetings!

Salooni, located in Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh, India, serves as the tehsil headquarters and administrative sub-division and situated at an altitude of 1829 meters and situated at the distance of 55 kms from the district headquarter Chamba. The place offers a stunning panoramic vista of the snow-clad hills and peaks of Pir Panjal and Dhaula Dhar and situated at the top of a ridge and opening into the Bhandal valley and also serves as a passage to Bhadarwah in Jammu and Kashmir, one of the oldest Chamba-Jammu cultural route.

Salooni is renowned for its breathtaking views of the Pir Panjal Range, providing visitors with a clear, snow-capped spectacle throughout the year. According to one version, the name "Salooni" is said to have originated from the word "Sailani," meaning tourist, as the place has been frequented by tourists since the era of the Rajas of Chamba. Another interpretation suggests that due to its natural allure, the place was named "Saloni," signifying attractiveness and charm in English.
