Manali is the launching point of Bhrigu Lake trek. One goes through lush green forests of Pine, Fur, Oak and Cedar,
crosses meadows laden with wild flowers & often crossing glittering streams.

This trek provides the opportunity to catch glimpses of magnificent old Himalayan villages,its people and their way of life.

This trek starts from Kulang (a village around 6 kms. from the main town of Manali) and provides glimpses of dazzling landscapes.

One can have panoramic view of many snow capped high mountains, such as Indrasan (6220 m.), Inderkilla (6000 m.) etc.

This trek provides ample opportunities to explore the glaciers and moraine in this part of the Himalaya.
