The Bhrigu Lake Trek is one of the most scenic and easily accessible high-altitude treks in Himachal Pradesh. Situated close to Manali, this trek leads you to the mystical Bhrigu Lake, located at an altitude of around 14,100 feet (4,300 meters). This glacial lake is named after the revered sage Maharishi Bhrigu, who is believed to have meditated here. What makes this trek exceptional is that you can reach such a high-altitude alpine lake within just two days of trekking, making it a perfect adventure for beginners and experienced trekkers alike.
The Bhrigu Lake Trek is ideal for those looking to experience alpine meadows, panoramic Himalayan views, and a sacred destination, all within a short duration. It offers 360-degree views of snow-capped peaks, including the Dhauladhar and Pir Panjal ranges, without having to spend weeks on the trail. Unlike many high-altitude treks that take several days to reach above the tree line, this trek offers meadows and vistas right from day one, making it visually rewarding throughout.
The total trekking distance is around 25-27 km, completed over 3 to 4 days. The difficulty level is moderate, with a steady but continuous ascent. Trekkers should have basic fitness and the ability to walk for 5–6 hours daily. While the trail isn’t technically difficult, the high altitude can cause breathlessness and fatigue, so proper acclimatization and hydration are crucial.
The best time for the Bhrigu Lake Trek is from mid-May to October. During May and June, you’ll witness snow patches along the trail and around the lake. July to August brings lush greenery, wildflowers, and vibrant meadows, making it a photographer’s dream. By September and October, the air turns crisp and the skies clearer, offering uninterrupted mountain views. Trekking in winter is not advised as the lake remains frozen and the trail is snow-covered.
Day 1 – Arrival in Gulaba (Drive from Manali): Your trek begins from Gulaba, a small settlement 22 km from Manali. Acclimatize and camp overnight. Day 2 – Gulaba to Rola Kholi (6 km): Begin the trek through pine and oak forests, gradually entering alpine meadows. Rola Kholi is a beautiful open campsite with views of Hanuman Tibba and the Solang Valley. Day 3 – Rola Kholi to Bhrigu Lake and back (10 km): Start early to reach the lake. The trail ascends steeply across snowfields and grasslands. Upon reaching Bhrigu Lake, marvel at the serene, oval-shaped water body surrounded by snow and silence. Return to Rola Kholi for the night. Day 4 – Rola Kholi to Gulaba and drive to Manali: Trek back to Gulaba and drive to Manali for departure or further exploration.
Bhrigu Lake is not just a trek, it’s a cultural experience. The locals believe the lake never completely freezes due to its sacred energy. The trail passes through pastures used by Gujjar shepherds, where you might see their flocks and traditional stone shelters. The rolling meadows, changing colors with the seasons, offer an experience similar to European alpine landscapes. You’ll see rare high-altitude flowers, gushing streams, and snow-covered slopes, all within a few days of hiking.
Carry layered clothing, as temperatures can range from 25°C during the day to sub-zero at night. Include a good-quality backpack, trekking shoes, waterproof jacket, thermals, gloves, beanie, sunglasses, sunscreen, personal medication, a headlamp, and water bottles. A walking stick is useful on steep sections. A basic level of cardiovascular fitness will help you manage the altitude better.
Most trekkers opt for guided treks with local operators who provide tents, sleeping bags, and food. Meals typically include rice, dal, vegetables, chapati, and soup. You’ll be camping at scenic locations with no access to mobile networks or electricity, offering a complete digital detox in nature.
The Bhrigu Lake Trek is safe when done with an experienced guide or a reputed trekking company. Do not attempt the trek alone if unfamiliar with the terrain. Keep yourself hydrated, take breaks, and avoid alcohol or smoking during the trek. Always respect local customs and do not litter the trail.
The Bhrigu Lake Trek is one of the most accessible high-altitude treks in India, offering an incredible mix of spiritual legend, alpine scenery, and Himalayan adventure in a short span.
