Dharamkot in May: 7 Fun Reasons to Visit 

1. Perfect Weather

May brings clear skies, warm days (around 20–25°C), and cool evenings—ideal for treks, strolls, and just chilling at cafes with a view.

2. Trekking Season

Trails like: – Triund Trek (easy-moderate, great for beginners)   – Indrahar Pass (more advanced)   …are open and safe during May. The snow has mostly melted but the peaks are still snow-capped, giving you stunning views.

3. Chilled, Artsy Vibe

Dharamkot is known for its laid-back, creative crowd. Think yoga classes, art workshops, sound healing sessions, and travelers from all over the world just vibing.

4. Yoga & Meditation Retreat

Home to Tushita Meditation Centre (famous for silent retreats) and plenty of yoga studios, it’s perfect if you want to unplug and realign.

5. Café Culture

Quaint cafes like: – Bodhi Greens   – Trek and Dine   – Moonlight Café   …offer great food, Wi-Fi, books, and gorgeous views of the Dhauladhar range.

6. Proximity to Tibetan Culture

A short walk to McLeod Ganj brings you to the Dalai Lama’s temple, Tibetan markets, and local monasteries. May also usually includes Buddha Purnima celebrations—very spiritual and photogenic.

7. Fewer Crowds Than McLeod Ganj

It’s quieter, more peaceful, and less touristy. Perfect for solo travelers, digital nomads, and anyone wanting to decompress.
