Dharamshala & McLeod Ganj RetreatA Himachal trip based in McLeod Ganj, home to the Tibetan government-in-exile, combining Tibetan Buddhist culture, mountain views and a noticeably slower, more reflective pace than Himachal's busier hill stations.
McLeod Ganj offers a genuinely distinct cultural experience within Himachal — Tibetan Buddhist monasteries, cafes and markets — alongside the same Dhauladhar mountain scenery.
Drive into Dharamshala and up to McLeod Ganj, home to the Tibetan government-in-exile and a large Tibetan refugee community, set against the Dhauladhar mountain range.
A day around McLeod Ganj — the Tsuglagkhang Complex (the Dalai Lama's temple), Tibetan markets and cafes, and the Bhagsu waterfall a short walk from the town centre.
A further day at leisure in McLeod Ganj, with time for the Tibet Museum, additional cafe and market time, or a short walk toward Dharamkot.
A final day in McLeod Ganj, with time for a short walk toward Triund's lower trail or simply more time in the town's cafes before departure.
Morning at leisure in Dharamshala & McLeod Ganj before a private transfer to the airport for your onward flight.
