Hamirpur district, Administrative district in Himachal Pradesh, India
Located between the Shivalik Ranges, Hamirpur district spans 1,118 square kilometers and contains numerous pine forests across its mountainous terrain at 790 meters elevation.
The district emerged from Kangra District in 1972 and received its name from Raja Hamir Chand, who constructed a fort while ruling from 1700 to 1740.
The district maintains strong military traditions with many residents serving in the Dogra Regiment, Jammu and Kashmir Rifles, and other defense forces of India.
The district connects to major cities through National Highways 3 and 103, with regular bus services operating from the capital city Hamirpur.
With the highest road density among all districts in India, Hamirpur recorded unexpected snowfall in 2012 and 2019 despite its generally snow-free climate.
