Brahmatal Trek

Duration

6 Days 5 Nights

Destinations Covered: Rishikesh

Some of our top treks are favourites because of the mountain views they offer. Think of Chaukhambha from Deoriatal Chandrashila or Bandarpoonch from DayaraBugyal. It is difficult to find such magnified views of big mountains like these.

Here is why. Right on your second day, you climb out of the beautiful rhododendron and oak forest to see a white wall of the Trishul massif. And these views only come closer as you traverse the ridge towards Jhandi Top.

At Jhandi top, you are almost at the center of the mountain views. To your right rises the massive Mt Trishul and to your left stands Mt Nanda Ghunti. You even see the Ronti Saddle, the ridge that connects Mt Trishul and Mt Nanda Ghunti.

That is not all. At the highest point of the Brahmatal trek, Brahmatal Top, a new set of mountains open themselves up before you. You see Mt Neelkanth, and Mt HathiGhoda… while Trishul and Nanda Ghunti are to your right. Always there.

Mt Trishul and Mt Nanda Ghunti, are your companions throughout the trek. Even the highest point of this trek is approached from the side that is exposed to Mt Trishul and Mt Nanda Ghunti.

To top it all, Brahmatal has lovely forests, two lakes to look forward to and a meadow to traverse through.
