Embark on a journey to the Himalayan foothills, the gateway to the majestic Dhauladhar Mountains. Begin your day with an early breakfast in McLeod Ganj before venturing into the enchanting mixed forest of oak, rhododendron, and deodar trees. This day hike is a favorite among adventurers, offering a chance to spot various songbirds for birdwatching enthusiasts.

The well-marked trail leads you to Triund, starting from Galu temple with a 3 to 4-hour steep ascent. Along the way, small tea shops offer a welcome respite for refreshments. While some sections of the climb may be challenging, the serene surroundings of Rhododendron and Oak trees make the journey worthwhile.

As you reach the Triund ridge, you'll be greeted by an alpine meadow with stunning views of the Dhauladhar peaks and the Kangra valley. After a light lunch at Triund, begin your descent back to McLeod Ganj, passing by the impressive Bhagsunag waterfall. The return journey is quicker than the ascent, allowing you to savor the experience.

If time permits, make a stop at Shiva Café for evening snacks, admire the majestic Bhagsunag waterfall, and receive blessings at the Bhagsunag temple before concluding your memorable trek.
