McLeodganj – Kareri Lake Trek From Delhi is a perfect weekend adventure for nature lovers, trekkers, and anyone looking to escape the city and experience the real beauty of Himachal Pradesh. This 2N/3D package offers a smooth journey from Delhi, comfortable arrangements, and a refreshing trekking experience to one of the most beautiful glacial lakes in the Dhauladhar region — Kareri Lake.

Your journey begins with an overnight travel from Delhi to McLeodganj, a peaceful hill town known for its Tibetan culture, monasteries, cafés, and mountain views. After reaching McLeodganj, you can freshen up, explore the market, visit the famous Dalai Lama Temple, and enjoy the cool weather. In the evening, our team provides a short briefing about the trek so you are fully prepared for the next day.

The adventure begins the next morning with the start of the Kareri Lake Trek, one of the most scenic trails near Dharamshala. The trek takes you through pine forests, wooden bridges, flowing streams, and charming village paths. The sound of the river, the greenery, and the cool mountain air make the journey relaxing and refreshing. Our experienced Hill Hikers trek leader guides you throughout, ensuring safety and a smooth pace for beginners as well.

As you climb higher, the landscapes open up to stunning views of the Dhauladhar mountains. By sunset, you reach the beautiful campsite near Kareri village, where you will enjoy a warm dinner, bonfire (if weather permits), and a peaceful night under the stars.

On Day 3, you trek towards the magnificent Kareri Lake, a crystal-clear glacial lake located at the base of the snow-clad peaks. The view here is unforgettable—blue waters, rocky terrain, and a sense of calm that only the mountains can offer. Spend time clicking photos, relaxing by the lake, and enjoying the raw beauty of nature before descending back.

After the trek, you will return to McLeodganj and board your comfortable overnight vehicle to Delhi.

With Hill Hikers, you get reliable support, trained guides, hygienic meals, quality camping gear, and a safe trekking experience at every step.
