Triund Trek

If you are in McLeodganj on holiday and just have one night for camping or a day climb, go up to Triund at that point. It’s a beautiful 3-4 hour walk to the top. Of course, you can pass the Indrahar if you have to be more gutsy. The most common pass through Dhauladhar is called Laka, Indrahar and Kwarsi. It is also known for several names. In November 2002, I traversed it with my approach to Bharmour. At 7:30 am there was no whiff of wind on the top on a cool morning late in the fall. Underneath was a green and earthy, checked rug, Silver lines denoted the streams, chosen by the beams of the morning sun as they cut the checkerboard in insane examples.

We spent nearly two hours at the top, relaxing in the sun’s light, embracing the dreamlike view of the calm, quiet world in the lower valley. A Gaddi we met just below the pass led us to Nag Dal. The nearly an hour and a half journey to one side of the snow and stones were laid down, and we followed the impressions of a bear to the lake. This pass has been chosen by a huge number of Gaddi shepherds. Indrahar offers the ideal alternative for those looking for the excitement to remain on a high crossing and can return a similar method to Dharamsala. The track is very much set apart, there is no requirement for a guide and surprisingly a solitary traveler can securely wander up and return in two days of hard strolling. 

The very first moment 

MCLEODGANJ-TRIUND 

DISTANCE 9 KM TIME 4 HOURS 

LEVEL EASY 

Although you can drive the 2 km from McLeod to Dharamkot, it is more enjoyable to walk. In the timberland-clad tranquility of the Dharamkot region, various yoga and contemplation centers have been established. It is possible to see panthers and pij with a touch of karma (wild goat). Even the monal was known to slip into this belt in winter. At Dharamkot Galu Devi (2,130m) is equipped with a little refuge and a point of water. From here, the path goes east through mixed oak and rhododendron forest.

Triund Trek is famous for its outlook and is a famous walk to McLeodganj and Dharamshala guests. From spring to early winter the much-trampled course is sprinkled with coffee houses and dhabas. When you cross a ‘Sorcery View,’ a ‘Belle View’ and surprisingly a ‘Snowline Café,’ the way up to Triund is markedly clear (2,975m). The great outlook of Triund incorporates the pinnacles of Mun in the Dhauladhar (4.610m), Slab in the Dhau, Rifle Horn, and the large area below. In the surrounding area of Triund both birdwatchers and stargazers are also paid greatly.

There is one fly in the salve: the water in Triund can be scarce and its well is a kilometer down on the western side of the Triund Ridge. It’s the only source and in the rainstorm the path to it is difficult and dangerous. The volume of water decreases significantly after the storm and goes dry again and again. One has to go down an equal way to get water, all things considered.

There is no permanent home in Triund except a Rest House for forestry, which can be reserved in Dharamsala on the auxiliary edge of Dhauladhar. In the event of a crisis, close rock cover(s) (one side). There is plenty of room to set up camp in the lush knolls for those with their own tents. During the trip, several dhabas emerge to take traffic into account, but their cost can be quite extreme to humble.

DAY TWO 

TRIUND-LAHESH CAVE 

DISTANCE 6 KM TIME 3 HOURS 

LEVEL EASY 

It is a modest, northward ascent for the main 90 minutes, concealed with oak and fir, behind the Forest Rest House. The Laka Got, (3,350m) raises to a certain extent, a little luxurious camp set apart in a demolished state by a traveling deck. From here, the trail reaches one side (northeast), goes up a little side and then goes up to one side (west) to go up to Lahesh Cave, a peculiar stone haven for 20 people (3,500m). The arrival to the cavern from Laka Got doesn’t take exactly an hour.

An additional fascination close to the cavern is a little cascade. There are various other gigantic stones that can fill in as crisis cover for four to five individuals. In any case, in this rock flung labyrinth, it is not entirely obvious the cavern without a guide. While crossing the pass in 2001, when we arrived at the Lahesh Cave, we saw two individuals waving at us from a good way. We flagged them to come over. They were from New Zealand and were headed to Bharmour. They had a go at finding the cavern, and had discovered some spot to go through the night under a stone confusing it with Lahesh Cave! 

DAY THREE 

LAHESH CAVE-CHHATA PARAO VIA INDRAHAR PASS 

DISTANCE 7 KM TIME 6-8 HOURS 

LEVEL MODERATE 

Consistent climbing can raise the pass in 3-4 hrs. The track lies up a precarious stone face rising north over advances both regular and man-made. The thin width is delivered to some degree risky in the downpours as various streams course down the face. Post-rainstorm, the vast majority of these go dry and present no trouble. When all is said in done, it is ill advised to cross the pass after noon as the climate on this pass is flighty and perceivability can decrease radically in an exceptionally brief time frame. It’s ideal to stand out during such periods since it is not difficult to get lost in such conditions. A little stone sanctuary implanted with trishuls marks the Indrahar Pass.
