We highly recommend this trek. Offbeat and less crowded. We trekked with thetravelmonk.com . everything was managed by them 3D-2N Package EX-Dharamshala, incl Trek, Guide Stay, Food and Bus stand transfers. Everything was very well managed. River camping on day-1 was an add-on and provided complimentary. you have to ask for it. Toilet facility(Western) was a relief. As there were none at the location. Highly recommended for Lady trekkers. Proper sanitization of camps and sleeping bags was done. Contact-8146654329 for details.

Not many people are aware but the Wah tea estate is one of the ten oldest tea estates in the country. Unlike some other tea gardens in Palampur this is quite well maintained gardens with well maintained road leading right up to the factory.

What an amazing place and how beautifully crafted by Japanese architect Narenka to plan it as an Avalokiteshvara ! We toured the art studios and saw the students at work.

I follow this course last Novembre and it was incredible. First of all the centre is very peaceful and relaxing. You hear very little noise from the street, you are surrounded by the forest and mountains. The food was delicious, vegetarian and different everyday. The quality of teaching, the content of the course and the variation of the meditation session were really great. I ve enjoyed every single day there, time went by very quickly, and to get a real break from our daily busy routine is sometimes very necessary and brings so much. There is such a positive energy there and Ienjoyed so much my cup of tea every day just sitting there and admiring the beauty of nature.

Grade: Moderate Mcleodganj to Triund 2800 mtrs, 9 kms gradual trek. The trek offer panoramic views Bhagsu village, Mcleodganj, Dharamsala valley and distant views of Shivalik hills and plains of Kangra valley. The trek is moderate nature. Triund is a large land of green grass and pasture like. One can see the mighty Dhauladhar ranges just above the eyes. This is the base camp and climatization point for trekkers climbing the Inderahara point in the Mt. Dhauladhar.

This was my first trek to Triund. Since I went on a weekday and not in season, it wasn't too crowded - which I liked. I loved the trek and the views. I stayed the night at the forest rest house - it's very basic, as basic as it can get, but does it's jobs - provides you shelter at night. The sunset was amazing, and so was the milky way (no pics) on the clear night sky. Few things to note: 1. Must start trek from Galu Devi temple between 7-11 am if you are returning the same day. Only stay option is Forest rest house (Google search 'ecotourism himachal', the first result is website, select Dharmshala and then Forest rest house). I was lucky to get accommodation booking on the same day. Read 'lucky'. 2. Must carry raincoat, torch and anything else that's typically suggested (remember there is no electricity at Triund). 3. If you love dogs, please carry some biscuits. They must be rewarded with treats as they guide you and keep up your motivation.

This place is a must watch you can skip the stadium but not this. This place is known to hardly a few tourists so you don’t have to worry about the queues. It also has a small cafe where you can have Tibetan food and teas

A really good temple. Although it's in a very narrow lane. So it is advisable to leave ur vehicle outside the lane somewhere if travelling by ur own car.

Hospitality and campus are very good. You make lots of friends from across the country and abroad. It's very much like staying at home.
