Bhrigu Lake Trek Overview
Bhrigu lake trek is one of the few treks in Himachal Pradesh that leads you to a lake high in the mountains in comparatively less time and effort. The trek starts near Gulaba village, which is around 20 km from Manali town and goes through green forests, sparkling rivulets as you get a spectacular view of the mighty Himalayas. The lake got its name from sage Bhrigu, who is said to have meditated here.

Manali to Gulaba to Rola Kholi
We meet in the morning at a pre-decided place in Manali and start for Gulaba in a taxi. Gulaba is a small village about 20 km from Manali on Rohtang road.

This is our second day of trekking. We start in the morning and reach the Bhrigu lake by afternoon. After spendingg some time at the lake we start trekking downwards.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions and answers
Will I be refunded If I cancel a trek?
It depends on when you are cancelling it. This is our trek cancellation policy:
Total Refund: If cancelled a month before the beginning of the trek date.
75% cash refund: If cancelled 15 days before the start of the trek date.
50% cash refund: If cancelled within a week before the start of the trek date.
Why cancellation charges?
Because when a trek is booked, our team starts making arrangements like taking permissions from the local administrations to checking routes to setting up base camps etc. So, if a trek is cancelled nearer to the trek starting date, higher the cancellation charges or lesser the refund amount.
Do we cancel treks?
It’s extremely rare. The Wildcone will cancel a trek only and only due to extreme and unfavorable weather conditions or natural calamities or because of some other external factors like a government regulation etc which are not in our hands. We have not cancelled any treks so far. If we do, we will provide a voucher for the full trek amount. The voucher can be redeemed in any of our future treks.
What all do I need to bring along for a trek?
Depends from trek to trek. But a pair of good hiking shoes and warm clothes are a must for any trek. Once you have booked a trek, our team members will provide you all information and answer all your queries.
What’s the menu during a trek?
We serve three vegetarian meals — breakfast, lunch and dinner — everyday on a trek. Consumption of alcohol is not allowed.
