Kareri Lake

Reviewed By imnomadgirl

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.

Minkiani Pass

Reviewed By latitude5400

Minkiani Pass Trek is among the very less explored treks in Himachal Pradesh. The pass lies 7 kms from Kareri lake and is a perfect blend of scenery and adventure in Dhauladhar mountain range. Once can witness various species of Himalayan birds and wild animals, and if you are lucky enough you can get a glimpse of Himalayan fox, snow leopard and many others. Minkiani Pass lies at an height of 4,343 meters same as Indrahar pass. The route to Minkiani Pass is steep and needs good fitness level. We trekked with Travel Monk. Everything was nicely arranged. Visit- thetravelmonk.com , Cont-8146654329. Camp, Matts & Sleeping bag were sanitized right before us, which you cannot see done by any other camp provider. They did everything to minimize the risk as possible. Proper sanitary-ware were provided. In such a times of Covid proper sanitization is most important. Western Bio-toilet with camp was such a relief, the first of kind i saw in my whole trekking experience. Toilet facility other than that was not anywhere. Highly recommended for Women trekkers.

Triund Hill

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.

Bhagsu Waterfall

Reviewed By HAPPYTIMESINDUBAI - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Known for the Beauty of the water fall when the destination is reached is the fact we heard about this waterfall that determined us to climb this water fall as soon as possible and started trekking and we clmbed for 1.5 km up the hill by stairs and small slopes that were there. we finally reached the top after a 15-20 minute long walk and it was very beautiful and there were clouds over there. and it is worth atleast 30 minutes up there and it only takes 10 minutes on the way down. if we come back to the Himachal, this is a must visit place over here
