This is a custom departure tour and so please write to us for prices and more info on this trek.
We will drive up to the Galu devi temple above Dharamkot. From here we will begin out hike up the mountain and get to Triund by late afternoon. Overnight we will stay at the mountain lodge in Triund or camp a little below Triund. On a clear day the sunsets from Triund are definitely out of this world.
We have a leisurely breakfast and enjoy the morning sunrise. We can spend some time soaking in the views. Then we hike down a little bit where our pilots will be waiting for us. After a quick briefing and getting ready for the flight we will take off. We take off from a little below Triund and the views we get form the air is simply breathtaking. We will choose our landing depending on the conditions of the day. Our vehicles transfer us to the hotel. Trip Ends!
