Dharamsala Trek Package

Upon arrival in Delhi, we are met by our local guides and transfer to a hotel in Delhi to freshen up. There will be some free time to explore Delhi this afternoon, before we take the transfer to the train station to catch our sleeper train to Pathankot.

Arriving in Pathankot early morning, we then transfer by coach to Dharamsala – the spiritual home of his Holiness the Dalai Lama. There we will be some free time today to explore this fascinating town, before we meet later in the evening for dinner and a briefing for the start of our challenge tomorrow. Over night stay at hotel Dharamsala .

• Following breakfast at our Hotel, we take the transfer to our start point to begin trekking! Our first few kilometres are undulating until we reach Satobari Village, which is where we start our descent through pine forests to Ghere Village. We stop at a mountain stream to enjoy lunch .We continue after lunch with a steep ascent for about 2 hours to Kareri Village, where we set up camp next to the Laund River.
• Trekking distance – approx. 14km

We take a short descent to the mountain stream to stop for lunch, then ascend sharply afterwards to Bal Village.
