Dharamshala McLeodganj Tour Package

McLeodganj is the upper part of Dharamshala, about 20 minutes up the hill by road. Dharamshala town sits lower down and is more of a transit and market point, while McLeodganj has the Dalai Lama Temple, Tibetan colony, cafes and trek starting points, so most travelers base themselves there.

A comfortable trip needs 3 to 4 nights: enough time for the monasteries, Bhagsu Falls, Dharamkot cafes and one day for the Triund trek. Add 2 more nights if you want to include the Kareri Lake trek or a Kangra day trip.

It's a moderate day trek, about 9 km one way with a steady climb, doable by most reasonably fit beginners in 4 to 6 hours up. It does not need technical climbing experience, but proper shoes and an early start help a lot.

March to June for clear Dhauladhar views and pleasant weather, September to November for post-monsoon clarity, and December to February if you want snow at Triund and Dharamkot. July and August bring monsoon rain and cloud cover.

A basic forest entry fee applies at the Triund trailhead, which we handle as part of the trek packages above. No special permit is required for Indian nationals; foreign nationals should carry ID for the forest checkpost.
