Things to do in Dharamshala in June

1

Tsuglagkhang Complex (Dalai Lama Temple)

The spiritual heart of the Tibetan exile community — a golden statue of Buddha, the Dalai Lama's residence, and a museum documenting the Tibetan struggle. Visitors are welcome to join morning prayers and watch monks debate in the courtyard.

2

Triund Trek

A 9km uphill hike through pine and rhododendron forest to a grassy ridge with jaw-dropping views of the snow-capped Dhauladhar range on one side and the Kangra Valley on the other — Himachal's most rewarding day trek.

3

Bhagsu Waterfall

A short, scenic walk past cafes and shops in Bhagsu village leads to a cascading waterfall tumbling over rocks — a popular spot to cool off, especially after the monsoon when the flow is at its strongest.

4

Tibet Museum

A sobering, beautifully curated museum documenting the 1959 Tibetan uprising, the Dalai Lama's escape to India, and decades of life in exile through photographs, oral histories, and personal artefacts.

5

Dharamkot Cafe & Yoga Circuit

A laid-back hillside village above McLeod Ganj packed with rooftop cafes, used bookshops, and yoga and meditation centres — the unofficial hub for long-term travellers and wellness seekers.

6

Kangra Fort

One of the oldest and largest forts in the Himalayas, with a history stretching back over a thousand years — its crumbling ramparts and gateways tell the story of Rajput, Mughal, and Sikh conquests.
