The route we start from

These are the stages published for this trip. A stage can cover part of a day or several days; it is not a separate travel day.

1. Stage 01

   Arrive & Setup

   Arrive in McLeod Ganj, check into the stay and do the only thing that matters on day one: test the wifi properly, on a call, at the desk you will actually use. Then sunset point, which is a ten-minute walk and resets the reason you came to work from a mountain.

2. Stage 02

   Work Week

   The working rhythm starts. Calls and deep work until five, when the light goes behind the Dhauladhar and the town comes out. The Dalai Lama temple complex is fifteen minutes away and the kora, the circuit around it, is the right walk to end a working day on.

3. Stage 03

   Café Circuit

   A day worked from the cafes, which is half the appeal of this town. Illiterati has the view and the book walls, Moonpeak does the coffee, and several others have power sockets and no objection to a laptop occupying a table for three hours.

4. Stage 04

   Bhagsu Evening

   Finish early and walk to Bhagsu, twenty minutes downhill, for the waterfall above the village and the cafes below it. Live music most evenings somewhere along that road, which is the informal centre of the town's social life.

5. Stage 05

   Triund Up

   Leave the laptop. The trek to Triund starts after lunch and climbs about 1,100 metres over nine kilometres to a ridge at 2,875 metres, which takes three to four hours. Camp on the ridge with the Dhauladhar wall directly behind and the Kangra valley lit up below.

6. Stage 06

   Triund Down

   Sunrise on the wall, which is why you carried a sleeping bag up a mountain, then the descent, which is faster and harder on the knees. Back down by lunch, and the afternoon is a shower and doing nothing.

7. Stage 07

   The Return

   Last momos, which in this town means Tibetan rather than the Delhi version, and the overnight bus home. Six nights of working somewhere that makes the working day shorter and the evenings much better.
