Triund: The Best Day Trek In India 🇮🇳

Описание: This is the story of our hike up to the Triund Camp, above Dharmsala in Himachal Pradesh in India. This is a steep day-hike that is extremely popular, attracting trekkers and those into hiking from not only India but all over the world.

We started early in the morning, which allowed us to see the place without all the tourists and before the evening clouds rolled in. We got some chai and food at the Triund camp, and we decide to venture up to the Snow Line camp, but the conditions were sketchy. The views at the top of Triund were some of the most incredible I saw in my entire time in the Himayalas.

From TripAdvisor: "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."

From Wikivoyage (I recommend their Dharmsala page for trekking info):

"If you are in for a brisk walk, climb the hill beyond Dharamkot to Triund ridge. It is one of the most popular treks to go over a weekend trip from Chandigarh and Delhi, and perhaps the easiest Himalayan trek, 6 km and 3 hr (one-way) from Bhagsu or Dharamkot, which are at 1,800–1,900 m. It goes through jungle and is quite a climb, and thousands of trekkers visit come on this trek every year. Triund provides beautiful views of the first peaks of the Himalayas and a wide view over the plains. In December and January this region turns white after snowfall which makes it more attractive for trekkers.
As it is at 2,875 m altitude, make sure to wear good shoes, carry water, some food and an extra vest or coat. At the top, even in summer, the weather can change from hot and sunny to cold and cloudy very quickly. Every year some tourists get themselves into serious trouble this way, wearing only sandals and a T-shirt. It seems that the western track is better maintained, so try that one if you are in Dharamkot anyway.
If you want to warm up before the Triund trek, try the trek to Guna temple. If you plan to stay overnight at Triund, there is a Forest Rest house (₹500–1000 per night). Take a double bedsheet, but be aware there is no running water or electricity. A torch is a must. If the Forest Rest house is full, then you can hire tents. You can also stay at Snowline tent camp, which is a bit higher up. Ask the staff at Sunset Café for details, they have their contacts."
