Fitness Tips for Brahmatal Trek

At Brahmatal trek, we are going to trek for almost 4 days, each day covering 4 to 5 km in a time span of 5 to 6 hours. On half of these days, we are going to trek uphill with our backpack on our shoulders. So you need to be mentally and physically robust if you really want to complete this trek like a pro.

Here are some of the exercises that you are going to do for at least 30 days before coming to trek. It will not only increase your muscular strength but will also help you gain confidence in your abilities.

Jogging

To complete this trek perfectly, you are supposed to do jogging for at least 30 days with a target of covering at least 5 kms in 40 minutes. Start with brisk walking and keep measuring your progress. Don't stress yourself too much from the first day and always do stretching for at least 15 minutes before and after jogging.

Abdominal Crunches

It always hurt when we walk for a long distance. And this is the most common problem with trekkers while trekking. For that, abdominal crunches are one of the best exercises. It will strengthen your muscles in and around your abdomen. Aim for three sets of ten repetitions each.

Brahmatal Trek Temperature

Winter is one of the most beautiful seasons for the Brahmatal trek. With beauty, this season also brings challenges for trekkers due to the large difference in temperature during the day and night. Here is a list of some of the most important months for the Brahmatal trek. Check it before booking your Brahmatal trek package so that you can enjoy the trek most.

Temperature on Brahmatal trek in November

November is the beginning of winter and especially snowfall in this region. During this time, temperatures will range between -3 to 2 degrees Celsius during the night and 5 to 11 degrees Celsius during the day. The climate will be pleasant and you will get a clear view of mountains all around you.

Temperature on Brahmatal trek in December

How to reach Brahmatal

The starting point for the Brahmatal trek is Lohajung. So for the Brahmatal trek, first you have to reach Lohajung, which is at an altitude of 7545 feet, or 2300 meters. The only way to reach here is by road. But don't worry, you can take a train or flight to the nearest railway station or airport. And trust me, the road journey till Lohajung from the nearest railway station or airport is full of natural beauty and you are definitely going to like it.

By Train: The nearest railway station to the Brahmatal trek is Kathgodam, which is around 216 km away from Lohajung, the starting point of the Brahmatal trek. If you are planning to reach here by train, then you can book your ticket from your native place to Kathgodam, but there are very few trains available. Another popular route is through Haridwar or Rishikesh, which is about 300 km away from Lohajung. You will get many direct trains from your native place to Haridwar or Rishikesh.

By Air: The Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun is the nearest airport for the Brahmatal trek. You can book your ticket to Dehradun and then cover the remaining 300 km by bus. But this airport has very few flights and that too, only from major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore etc. So if there is no direct flight for Dehradun you can take break journey at Delhi or Chandigarh airport.

By Road: As I have said earlier, the only way to reach Lohajung, the base camp of the Brahmatal trek, is by road. Whatever you choose, rail or air, you have to cover at least 250 kms by road. But don't worry, these roads are pretty cool and you are going to love them. The views all along the way are just wow. So the best option to reach Brahamatal trek is to join us from Haridwar or Rishikesh and just enjoy the beautiful views. You are not going to feel the distance.

Cutltural Importance of Brahmatal and Bekaltal

Not only trekking importance this trek also holds cultural importance and locals here strongly believe that Lord Brahma- The creator of this universe had meditated beside this lake for a very long and used its water for his day-to-day need. That's why this lake took his name and is well known as Brahmatal Lake.

There is another famous lake on the trail of the Brahmatal trek and that is Bekal Tal. The literal meaning of "Bekal" is a frog and "Tal" means pond. Locals believed that a snake deity protector of villagers had one loyal servant -a frog. After getting pleased with his loyalty she created this pond for his survival.

Tips for Brahmatal Trek

Brahmatal Trek Difficulty

Brhamatal lake is located at an altitude of 12000 feet with a total trekking distance of just 20 to 21 km, which we are going to cover in 4 days. But this trek gets a bit more challenging during the winter season after snow falls. So the Brahmatal trek difficulty is easy to moderate. But this is not something which can be taken for granted. Starting from the very first day, we are going to see some steep ascents, which can create difficulty for someone who comes unprepared for this trek. So if you want to enjoy this trek, then it's strong advice to start preparing for it at least 30 days before coming to Brahmatal.

Why Manchala Mushafir for Brahmatal Trek

You must be thinking that when there are so many companies in the market who are providing Brahmatal trek at a lower price, then why book it from Manchala Mushafir? right? It's a general question that we get from our trekkers now and then.

We really don't care what others are providing and at what price. What we really care about is your comfort and your trekking experience with Manchala Mushafir. We have a deep appetite for your good reviews. A team of experts is working round the clock to make the trekking experience even better in India. Here are some of the features because of which we believe you should book with Manchala Mushafir and give us a chance to serve you.

Brahmatal Mythology

Uttarakhand is also known as Devbhoomi, and it is correctly called so. After every 10–12 km, you will find a new story of God selecting this region for meditation. If you are wondering, why so? Then visit this place at least once. This state is so beautiful that even God has selected this place for meditation.

Brahmatal is also known for the same reason. It's a firm belief among locals here that Lord Brhama (the creator of this universe) had meditated at this point for a very long time, and so this pond is named Brahmatal Trek.

I believe the almighty chose this location for meditation because of the beautiful view of a deep valley and high mountains like Mt.Trishul and Mt.Nandagunti, as well as the deep silence all around. If you are also searching for peace or looking for a trek with remarkable beauty, then Brahmatal Trek is one of the best options. Still, if you want to explore some more treks, then Manchala Mushafir has got you covered with a wide range of treks and expeditions suitable for both seasonal and regular trekkers.

Brahmatal Trek Faq

The total trekking distance of the Brahmatal trek is 20 Km which we are going to cover in 4 days. The altitude is 12000 feet so it can be considered an easy trek but considering difficulties due to heavy snowfall during the winter season Brahmatal trek is considered an easy to moderate difficulty level trek.

The Brahmatal Trek is classified as an easy-to-moderately difficult trek with no technicality. So, yes, Brahmatal Trek is perfect for beginners. The only point to note here is that during winter, challenges on this peak increase due to heavy snow fall. But don't worry, just follow the fitness tips given in the above section and everything will be fine..

Being a winter trek, the best time for a Brahmatal trek is from December to March. The snow-covered trails and the view of mighty peaks of Mt. Trishul and Mt. Nandagunti in the immediate vicinity make it worth all your efforts.

The Brahmatal trek is one of the best winter treks. While almost all alpine lakes become inaccessible during winter, on the trek to Brahmatal, an alpine lake itself, you will not just see it but also camp beside it. On reaching Brahmatal lake, which is already above 12,000 ft, you will be able to clearly see the snow-capped mountains all around you.

Both the Kendarkantha trek and the Brahmatal Lake trek are similar in terms of altitude, difficulty level, and best time to go for these treks. However, there are differences when it comes to

A) Pricing-The Kedarkantha trek will cost you less than the Brahmatal trek.

B) Trail-Brahmatal trek trails through more forest cover than the Kendarkantha trek.

C) Destination: On the final leap to reach Kedarkantha peak, you will start at night with your head torches on and reach the peak by sunrise. The sunrise view from Kedarkantha peak is worth a hundred such sleepless nights. On the other hand, on the Brahmatal trek, you will camp around an alpine lake and get majestic views of Mt. Trishul and Mt. Nandaghunti.

D) Crowd- Keadrkantha trek is much more crowded than the Brahmatal trek since the latter one is a relatively new trek.

From looking at these differences, you may decide for yourself what you want from your trek and which one is best suited for you.

The following are important things to pack for the Brahmatal Lake trek:

- A pair of trekking shoes with good grip

-five to six pairs of socks; two to three layers of thermal innerwear;

-lip balm; moisturizer with SPF above 25

- UV protected sunglasses

-raincoat, sun cap, torch, water bottle

-energy bar

-Trek pole: Any government issued ID card with your address like an aadhaar, passport, or driving licence

Yes, there will be enough snow with light snowfall on the Brahmatal trek in December. The Brahmatal trek receives heavy rainfall in January. The snow gets deeper as you trek higher up. So, if you want to enjoy a good amount of snowfall on the Brahmatal trek, it's advisable to go from January to March.

Lohajung is the base camp of the Brahmatal Trek. Lohajung is around 8 hours by taxi drive from Kathgodam. You can reach Dehradun by air and then take a train from Dehradun to Kathgodam. You can reach Kathgodam directly from Delhi by train. If you choose to reach Kathgodam by bus, you will have to take a bus from Delhi ISBT to Haldwani railway station, which falls on the Delhi to Nainital bus route. From Haldwani, you can take a bool taxi to Lohajung. You may also drive yourself directly to Lohajung.

Since the Brahmatal trek is moderately difficult, it can be done solo if you are physically fit enough for it and have prior experience of Himalayan treks. However, it is advisable to go on a brahmatal trek with a guide and a group because if by any chance you get injured or lost along the way, it will be very difficult for you to either complete the trek or return to the base.
