Trekking Points near
Mcleodganj Dharamshala for Adventure and Nature Lovers
I know many people who want to enjoy the real beauty of the mountains
during their vacations. People want to go to secluded and serene places which
are not crowded but are truly enchanting. The irony is that not many people are
able to fulfill their wish owing to lack of information and other reasons.

In most of the websites of travel agencies you would find
the information of only those places which are famous. It is also easy for the
travel agencies and the people in this business to show you these places. They
have their own business interests and ultimately the loss is of the tourist who
though enjoys these places but is denied with the real feel and pleasure.
My idea of travel is to explore the places which are really
beautiful and less explored. I firmly believe that there are millions of people
out there who feel the same.
Today I am going to write and tell you about the places in
and around Dharamshala which are must visit if you intend to get the real heavenly
feel of the place. Call any travel agent or a hotel and ask them about the
places they would include in the itinerary and your package. You will find most
of them offering similar packages. I would not blame them because they are also
of the opinion that these are the only best places here in this region. Only 10
percent would have a different itinerary because they understand the need of
those who are looking for the real enjoyment.
While holidaying in Dharamshala the major and popular
tourist destinations are Mcleodganj where you can visit the Budhist Monastery
and Dalai Lama Temple and residence, Bhagsu Nag Temple, Bhagsu Water Fall,
Dharamkot Village, Naddi Village, Dal Lake, Tibetan Children’s Village, Church,
etc. There are other places like Indru Nag Temple, Kangra Museum, Norbulingka,
Tapoban Ashram, Chamunda Devi Temple, Kangra Temple etc.
All these places are beautiful and you would definitely
enjoy visiting here. In fact your travel agent or cab driver is also right in
taking you to these places. They are doing their job as per their and customers
requirement.
As a stranger the tourists are unaware of many spots where
they would have enjoyed more. The travel agent would not want to go there as
they are secluded places and his can would have to travel more so less profit.
Generally what the cab drivers do in most of the places all
over India? They will take you to the points which are located close to each
other. The distance covered is less and they are being paid for the entire day
by the customers.
For example if you are in Mcleodganj and hire a cab for a
full day, you could only visit, Bhagsu Nag Temple, Bhagsu water fall, Naddi
Village and Dal Lake and Church. The total distance covered would not be more
than 16 Kms but you have paid fare for the entire day.
My suggestion is just walk down to Bhagsu Nag from
Mcleodganj. Enjoy the scenic beauty of the Kangra Valley and Dhauladhars on the
way and you would not even know when you reached Bhagsu Nag.
There are many people who would love to touch the snowline
and would be tempted to trek to the Himalayas.
If you have the passion and the courage and the stamina then
do not miss 7 kms trek to Triund. Book a forest rest house stay there overnight
and then go further and touch the Dhauladhar Range and Glaciers at ILAKA.
Don’t worry if you do not have time but still want to go on
trekking at some beautiful place. You can go to GALU which is 3-4 kms trek from
Dharamkot. You would find yourself so close to the nature. Serene GAJ River,
Himalayan water fall at GALU is a treat to the eyes. Take a dip at the natural
Pool of GAJJ River and rejuvenate your heart and soul. One day trek with your
family at GALU Himalayan Water Fall is must visit.
Not many travel operators
would suggest or take you to this place but do add it in your itinerary without
a second thought.
If you are avid lover of the nature and would not mind
spending 3-4 days in trekking then KARERI LAKE is the best option
for you.
Located near Kareri Village this is a stunning lake amidst serene
nature. Book the forest rest house at Forest office Dharamshala before
you plan to Kareri or Triund
Dharamshala Tea gardens and Dharamshala Tea are world famous but many people are not
aware of this. You can take a walk from Dharamshala to the MANN Tea factory
located in Narghota Village. On the way you would be mesmerized with the lush
green and vast tea gardens on both sides of the road.
During the British Raj
this place was known as Sanitarium and people used to come here to get the
fresh air. This holds true even today. From Chilgari to Narghota you will find
only tea gardens and lush green jungles with no inhabitant. If you have any query feel free to write to me at arnavrana2010@gmail.com
Do not miss this place when you are in Dharamshala.
