Trekking all over for 1100 meters high altitude, the Triund Hill offers scenic views of the captivating Kangra Valley. The winter months are the most favourable time to be a part of this trek as the cold weather does not hinder your trekking enthusiasm.

The presence of a dense mist or fog may obstruct in capturing the picture-perfect view of the snow-capped mountain ranges.
