Great
place
for
day
hikes
and
camping.
After
the
camping
ban
of
2018,
you
cannot
camp
on
Triund
but
200-600m
below
triund
top.
The
trek
is
Beginner
to
Moderate.
From
Gallu
Devi
temple
it's
7km.
The
first
3.5km
(Till
Half
Point
Cafe)
is
easy,
but
after
that
has
some
steep
climbs
and
is
very
rocky.
Can
be
covered
in
2.5
-
5
hours
maximum.
Advisable
to
take
a
taxi
from
Mcleodganj
to
Gallu
Devi
temple
(4km)
rather
than
trekking
as
you'll
save
your
energy
for
the
real
trek.
Taxi
takes
Rs
500
(Don't
let
them
overcharge
you,
I
took
one
on
14th
October
2021).
If
possible,
better
trek
in
the
morning
to
Triund
and
then
to
Laka
Glacier
after
a
2
hour
stopover
at
Triund.
Its
5km
to
the
campsite
at
Laka
(Dhauladhar
Cafe).
In
between
you
can
stop
at
snowline
Cafe
which
is
3-3.5km
from
Triund.
Stay
overnight
in
camps
provided
at
Laka
Glacier.
You
can
go
to
Indrahar
Pass
the
next
day
which
is
6km
steep
and
moderate
-
difficult
trek,
spend
45mins
there
and
come
back
again
to
laka
glacier
camp
site.
P.S.
DO
NOT
FORGET
SUNSCREEN.
I
did,
though
I
didn't
get
sunburn
but
got
a
bad
tan.
