Triund is a popular camp site and picnic spot. Accommodation could also be taken up in government guest house. Accommodation is reasonably cheap and available from INR 500 per night. Food and water are also easily available but at a premium price (Packages mineral drinking water cost INR 40). The trek which takes around 2-4 hours (depending upon your stamina)could be done in 1 day or you could camp for the night to watch the stunning panoramas during sunset and sunrise.

Triund Hill is located in the Dauladhar Range of Himalayas in Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh at an elevation of 9,800 feet (2975 meters).

One of the reasons for the popularity of Triund Trek is its moderate nature which means tourists and picnickers could do it in a single day and return back to McLeod Ganj or Dharamsala.

Depending upon from where you start your trek, the road from Dharamkot, Naddi and Bhagsunag meet at Galu Temple and from here a single goat trail lead you to Triund Hill.

The trek starts easy but the gradient becomes sharper as you ascend up hill. After crossing 2 shacks where most of the trekkers stop to catch their breath and quench their thirst & hunger, you'd come across snow nullah (a mountain stream which is mostly dry) the trail becomes tiring as well as difficult as the gradient rises abruptly.
