It is classified under a moderate level of difficulty Bhrigu Lake trek, typically a 4-day expedition. During this trek, you will have the opportunity to traverse through the Kullu valley of Himachal Pradesh and enjoy unparalleled beauty.
Often touted as a nature lovers trek, you will have the privilege to walk through the Himalayan Alpine meadows, dense forests of oak, and rhododendron trees as the path meanders through the pretty wildflowerfilled valley before you reach the destination of the studding Brighu Lake.
Since you can visit the place all year round, there is something special about this lake every season. During summer, you will see the small glacial pieces floating across the lake. The spring will allow you to see the crystal clear blue water that keeps changing the color as the day passes, and during winter, the entire lake is frozen. During the trek, you also get a view of the Seven Sister peaks and get smitten by the scenic beauty. It will be a trek to remember forever.
