All AdventuresBrahmatal Trek
A pristine frozen lake surrounded by oak forests and winter silence
Brahmatal is Uttarakhand's finest winter trek — a trail through snow-laden oak and rhododendron forest leading to a frozen alpine lake with jaw-dropping views of Mt Trishul and Nanda Ghunti. The summit ridge gives a 270° panorama of the Kumaon Himalaya.
The combination of a snow forest, a frozen lake, and a summit view of 7,000m peaks in a single 6-day trek is hard to beat. One of the best winter treks in India for first-timers on snow.
