Another jewel of the Himalayas that has not been touched by tourists from all over the world is the Brahmatal trek, which is dedicated to Lord Brahma. It is beautifully situated in the middle of the Himalayas and covered with blankets of snow. The trail allows you to see the centuries-old Oak and Rhododendron forests. You can see many places on Roopkund Trek while walking in the meadows next to Brahmatal Ridge. The sight of the Garhwal range in the distance on a clear day will totally melt your heart.
When you are standing by the frozen lake in Brahmatal, you are already at about 12,000 feet. The setting is spectacular. The lake is in a crater, the waters are crystal clear, there is a shrine next to the lake and a lone tree stands on the opposite bank. And just beyond the edge of the lake, you are looking at two of the most beautiful mountains in our country,
Mt Trishul and Mt Nandaghunti
The forest walks on this snow carpet trek are some of the best we have. They are charming but not overwhelming. You can see far into the forest, heavy snow hangs on the tree branches. Brahmatal camp and lake are special. You will have an unobstructed view of the valley from here. the western horizon, the colours of the sun just brightening the dusk sky. Watching the sky change from yellow to orange to pink to blue for over half an hour was a treat for the eyes.
Brahmatal is a year-round trek and travellers prefer to trek mainly in winter and early summer. Since this is a popular winter Himalayan trek, travellers prefer to go here in January and February. The region experiences snowfall in winter, which brings a perfect ice cover. In spring, especially in March and April, the trail is beautified with rich rhododendron flowers. You can also witness a few remaining patches of snow contrasting with the lush green meadows.
The Brahmatal trek is apt for someone who likes to overdose on adrenaline and yearns to get lost in the wild green yonder of the Rhedrondrone going through ice snow as if they were guardian elements.
It’s preferable if you’re a fresher or already had your fair share of trekking in the Himalayas or other mountains. Also, physical fitness and agility go hand in hand with the trek as it falls under the above-average Difficulty category. The minimum required age required for this trek with a Brahmatal Trek Guide is 9 years.
It is impossible to peel your eyes away from Mt.Nanda Ghunti and Mt.Trishul once you’re face to face with them on the Brahmatal top.
