McLeod Ganj, just above Dharamshala proper, is the main draw — the Dalai Lama Temple complex, Tibetan markets and a strong cafe culture give it a character unlike other Himachal hill towns. Bhagsu Waterfall and the walk up to Triund are the usual add-ons for those staying a few days.
At roughly 9 to 10 hours, this is best treated as a multi-day trip. Many riders break the journey with a night around Pathankot on the way up.
