Triund Trek

So when i decided i wanted to trek Triund  the crown jewel of Mcleodganj –

(How to reach and do this trek and total budget) .

Situated in the laps of dhauladhar mountains.

it has the perfect view of the dhauladhar mountains on one side and kangra valley on the other.

It’s a 7km straight up trek. I didn’t know what i  was thinking.

I thought what could go wrong as everyone said

it is so beautiful and it was my first trekking and i was super excited.

I prepared with basic things like

Clothes, First Aid-Kit, and lots of warm clothes and i thought i was ready( worst mistake ).

So we started our trekking  and at first 1/2 an hour everything was good,

very pleasant and the sought of gave me  a feeling of bear grylls.

And then weather started changing

it was good at first very pleasant, first few Kms were just the time of my life.

and I was like ” I am Pretty Good at this ” and as we reach the Magic Cafe,

the first stop of our trek, or you can say the real trekking started from here,

the view was breathtaking, and the fog started swimming up and i could not believe my eyes.

From this point one I made a furry friend which accompanied me to the mountains.

as I went up,

My thoughts wandered off and i thought

why i didn’t do the morning walks, or went with my brother to play a sport,’

by the time my mind came out of these beautiful scenery, my legs are all out of strength.

I was breathing heavily and the hailstorm was at its peak.

And as they came down with the speed of 30 km per hour striking at my body all over

and leaving me with excruciating pain like someone was pricking me needles.

I started thinking of going back.

This is the native flower of the region and apparently you cannot pluck this flower and keep it with you.

my guide (Yes i was with a guide nobody is allowed to go alone except for the locals)

gave me motivation that “ Madamjii aapki saare pareshani upar pahuch ka dur hojayagi” ( your every worry will disappear after you reach up).

I somehow climbed up.

I was wearing this Good for nothing raincoat (100 Bucks) in order to protect 25 camera and my phone ( I don’t mind the rain )

And as we reached the top after 17191 steps ( I had a watch to calculate my steps)

the weather got worse due to that I never got the chance to take my camera out.

As the sun was setting temperature dropped to -5*C and i lost all my opportunity to capture the landscape.
