Best time for planning a Triund Trek
First thing first, deciding on the time for planning the journey! The journey is open throughout the time except for the months of January and February! During the two months, Triund generally receives heavy snowfalls and that makes some of the trails fully unapproachable. So, avoid these two months and you’ll be good to go!
