Our Overview
The Beas Valley is surrounded by the mighty Himalayan Ranges of Pir Panjal and Dhauladhar. The terrain above the tree line from 2900 m up to the 4500 m is made up of widely extended alpine meadows with high snow-clad summits dominating the background. These meadows house numerous sacred mountain lakes, which, according to the local legends, are abodes of the mountain Gods (kul devata) and hold religious and cultural significance among indigenous mountain folks. The Brighu Lake trek provides an opportunity to visit one such lake.
Note: It is also possible that a route change may become necessary due to weather, inaccessibility through the mountain passes due to heavy snow, the condition of the trail and the physical fitness of the clients.
