  • Trip introduction

    Embark on this trek to Bhrigu lake. The famous sage Bhrigu is said to have visited this lake to meditate, and when you visit, you'll see why. The lake is surrounded by snowy peaks and fed by glaciers, and all you'll hear here is the rippling of the cool, clear water and the occasional mountain bird flying by.

    This trek to Bhrigu Lake takes you through alpine forests and green meadows. En route, you'll get views of the Deo Tibba and Hanuman Tibba peaks, as well as the beautiful Seven Sister peaks. And at the end of your 3 day adventure, you’ll also get a chance to experience the famous hot sulphur springs at Vashisht.

    Destination

    The glistening Bhrigu Lake lies at an elevation of 14,100 feet in the upper Kullu Valley. At this altitude, the lake is frozen for most of the year, making it a very scenic trek. It's also one of the few high altitude lakes that you can get to in just 3 days. You'll begin in the green orchards and forests of Manali, with views of Manali and Solang as you trek. As you proceed to trek through Gulaba and Rohli Koli, you'll see the landscape beginning to change, and the weather gets colder. On your return, you'll trek through your the meadows of Pandu Ropa, with streams criss-crossing under your feet. You'll end in Vashisht where you can take a dip in the hot springs.
