Brahmatal Trek - The King Of The Best Winter Treks

 Brahmatal Trek is an undeniably blissful and heart-warming journey that offers six days of unbeatable experience in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand. The Lake remains nestled in the rising and dipping folds of the meadows encapsulated by the robust and fierce Himalayas of Uttarakhand and is a total treat to the eyes, especially in winters.

The easy to moderate grade trails of this trek sneak in and out of the depths of Uttarakhand to lead you to the fascinating Brahmatal Pass perched at an altitude of 12,200 ft. The Brahmatal Lake lies en route at 10,500 ft, while the Brahmatal Pass remains the highest accessed altitude on the trek.

Winter treks have a peculiar charm that makes you yearn for more and more similar experiences and since the Brahmatal trek is known to be the king of the best winter treks of all time, it leaves you flooded with a spectrum of emotions that stay with you long after the completion of the trek.

The distance covered during the trek for the kind of grand views accessed from the top is very less and more appreciable. Very rarely do you get spectacular opportunities such as this to put in minimal efforts and rise up to an admirable height to view bewildering and rousing views of snow-laden mountainscapes and that is why the Brahmatal Trek remains so revered amongst trekkers.

You can begin the brahmatal trek from Rishikesh since it is well connected with various means of transport and can be reached in a seamlessly easy manner. On the first day of the Brahmatal Trek, you will travel to Lohajung that lies 250 km away from Rishikesh. It will take roughly 10 hours for you to cover this distance and reach Lohajung at 7,662 ft.

From Lohajung, you will have to begin climbing uphill towards the serene and enchanting Bekaltal perched at an altitude of 9,690 ft. Bekaltal lies at a distance of approximately 6 km and can be reached in nearly 4–5 hours of steady trekking. You will first walk past the mandoli village to reach the confluence of Kali and Pindari Rivers, and then cross a few streams to eventually reach the gorgeous Bekaltal.

After decent climbs for the past two days, you will finally witness some steep ascents on the third day as you walk away from Bekaltal towards the gleaming and surreal Brahmatal. Brahmatal lies at a distance of 7 km from Bekaltal at an altitude of 10,450 ft. Cradled by the Himalayas of Uttarakhand, the Brahmatal appears exceptionally fascinating as it remains beautifully snuggled in the dips of the bugyals. It calmly reflects the surrounding landscapes and makes the frame even more mesmerizing. You will be able to view the Shivalik Range as well as the Greater Himalayas from Brahmatal. The Brahmatal camp, however, remains 500m away from the lake. After relishing the exotic scenery, you will have to return to the camp for the night stay.
