Khirsu offers a peaceful hillside escape a short drive from Rudraprayag, set among pine and deodar forests at an elevation of around 1900 metres. Clear days bring views of Nanda Devi, Trishul and other Himalayan peaks from its ridgeline. The area's terraced farms and apple orchards make it a good stop for travellers looking to slow down away from the busier pilgrimage route.
