Overview

Bhrigu Lake Trek is a high-altitude trek that has a significant implication.

High-altitude lakes are typically difficult to access, requiring days of hiking and crossing rough terrain before the sight of the lake can be appreciated. The lovely Bhrigu Lake walk in Manali, however, can keep all of these difficult issues at bay.

This walk will undoubtedly provide you with a succession of wonderful moments that you will treasure for the rest of your life.

According to the locals, there is a connection between the lake and Bhrigu and it was told that he is known to have performed meditations and rituals in the banks of the lake hundreds of years ago.

Bhrigu Lake Trek is near Rohtang Pass and it has breathtaking views of the Seven Sisters – Deo Tibba and Hanuman Tibba and the magnificent Pir Panjal Range. Trekkers will be crossing through lush meadows, verdant grasslands, alpine forests, and trees and streams. The trek is exceptionally pleasant and beautiful where one can rejoice at the sight of the Himalayas.

Heaven Riders India offers you an opportunity meandering through the Rohtang Pass, spotting the divine Bhrigu Lake, and soaking in the beautiful springs of Vashisht in just 3 days. The trip starts and ends at the most famous tourist destination ‘Manali’.
