Get to Know Triond, the Beautiful Spot in the Himalayas
by Patrick Regoniel on 04/05/08 at 2:50 am
Where and what really is the place called Triond in the Indian Himalayas?
I asked the question “What is Triund?” hoping to know about the place, not the place we write to get our articles, videos, and photos published. The search engine turned out numerous articles on Triond as a site for writing articles. What I really want to see is the place which the founder of
Triond
described as a beautiful place in the Indian Himalayas.
Curious about what Triund looks like, I gathered all articles and pictures in the internet to find out what it is. I used Google, Yahoo, Flickr, Answers, among others and I arrived at the materials listed below.
I provide impressions on the picture or article and place the links associated with it.
- Triund is a scenic place the peak of which is like a Bermuda grass garden with stones all over it. I’m wondering, however, why the photographer has to include the tents in the
picture
if the intent is to show it as a scenic place. -
Lakes are famous tourist destinations in Dharamsala where Triond is found. The author of
this article
, however, says that the highlight is definitely the Triond. It is a three hour walk uphill where one will see the snowy peaks. Probably tired of climbing or found the place nice to stay a while, many travelers stay there for several days in a forest rest house near one side of the hill. The author said the more adventurous travelers pitch their camps in a cave or a tent. That’s the reason why there are tents in the picture above. The description of Triond is found midway of the article. -
I typed “Triund” in
Flickr
and saw three pictures taken along the way to Triund showed a herd of goats with three tourists at foreground, a shepherd with the goats and two people posing for the camera.
Well, it’s quite difficult getting information about Triund, the place in the Himalayas. I wish those who have been there can
contribute more information about the site where we get our contents published.

How about Triond sponsoring a free trip for two lucky writers for a free trip to Triund in the Himalayas to make a comprehensive description?

Yes buddy, the site got its name from that beautiful spot in the Himalayas according to an interview with the Triond founder. He said it could be the most beautiful spot in the world. The picture you see here probably came from the founder. Thanks Sir. Those are such beautiful pictures. It must be cool and refreshing out there.

Very good research and interesting find.
I’ve been to Triund and can recommend it as a very beautiful place. Tourism is not very very ‘developed’ and commercialized in those parts so you can still find peace and sublime beauty there.

Thank you Rana,Judy and Ice. I like mountains with all the greenery around. It’s refreshing to see uncharted places. It’s a respite from the hectic, polluted world.

I would like to add that the two rainbows featured here, I believe, is a rare find.
