The Mcleodganj–Triund–Bir circuit is one of Himachal’s most well-rounded backpacking routes, offering a mix of spiritual depth, scenic trekking, and adrenaline-packed adventure.
Located in the Kangra district, Mcleodganj is often referred to as “Little Lhasa” for its strong Tibetan influence and is home to the Dalai Lama’s residence. It’s the starting point for the popular Mcleodganj to Triund trek, a moderate climb through oak and rhododendron forests that leads to panoramic views of the Dhauladhar range and Kangra Valley.
Triund, perched at 9,432 ft, is a grassy ridge ideal for camping under the stars. From there, the journey continues to Bir, a quiet town known globally for paragliding and its peaceful Tibetan monasteries. Doing all three places in one go means you get the best of Himachal—culture, nature, and thrill—without doubling back.
The trip begins with easy access from Delhi or Chandigarh, with overnight bus to Dharamshala. From there, local transport takes you to McLeodganj, the base for the McLeodganj Triund trek package. The weather is pleasant from March to June and again from September to March, making it ideal for backpackers who want to avoid peak tourist crowds.
Whether you’re hiking to Triund, gliding over Bir’s meadows, or sipping thukpa in a Tibetan café, this route offers a balanced pace and diverse experiences. It’s especially great for travelers who want to combine trekking with cultural immersion and light adventure.
