Itinerary
-
McLeod Ganj to Naddi Village
- Start your tour from the main square at McLeod Ganj, an old British hill station, with your Dharamshala guide.
- Walk to Naddi Village (2,000 metres), a small village with spectacular views of the Dhauladhar mountains.
- Pass through the dense coniferous forest consisting mainly of stately Deodar cedar trees to Dal Lake. It is considered a sacred spot as there is a small Shiva mandir (shrine) on its bank.
- Stop to have chai (tea) while enjoying the views of the forest and the small lake.
- Trek further into Naddi Village, which is surrounded by pine, Himalayan oak, and rhododendron trees. You will be able to see rhododendron trees bloom into magnificent reds and pinks in late February and March. The village has a rich history as most of the inhabitants are from the Gaddi Tribe (shepherds and herders), and all speak the local Gaddi language.
- Relish local cuisine for lunch cooked by locals.
- Return to McLeod Ganj and pass through a Tibetan Children’s Village.
