Premium Brahmatal with Jatropani Peak Trekking Package

You can either reach Lohajung from Rishikesh or from Kathgodam. It is around 8-9 hr drive from Kathgodam.

The trek starts with gradual uphill hike on the ridge adjacent to Lohajung. The trail opens up to a flat land with few temporary shelters, soon you’ll enter the forest rich in Oak, Fir & Conifer. Further two hour hike through gentle trail will lead you to a small yet pretty lake, Khopriya Tal. Bekhal Tal is hidden on the upper ridge of Khopriya Tal. Pay a visit to the small temple there and head back to the campsite for amazing sunset views.

Start trekking through a scenic cocktail of forest and meadows. Panoramic views of majestic Himalayan peaks (Nanda Ghunti, Bethartoli Himal and Trishul) will open up on the right side during the trek to Brahmatal. Total trekking distance of 8 kms for the day can be easily covered in 4-5 hrs time. The trail goes along with the ridge and descends down to one of the most secluded lakes in Garhwal Himalayas, Brahmatal. 

Brahmatal is situated at an altitude of 3400 mts above sea level. It is believed that Lord Brahma used to meditate here. It is going to be a cold night as the lake is exposed to the flat meadow and the view is also obstructed by Jatropani Peak.

The trail to Jatropani Peak goes through the grassy ridge with few narrow intersections until the last stretch where you need to tackle boulders for the final summit push. Jatropani Peak is also referred to as Khamila Top. Jatropani East Peak is situated at an altitude of 4,000 mts connected with the ridge on the south side that leads to the actual summit which is situated at 4,070 mts above sea level. The actual summit is another hour away from Jatropani East Peak.

Experience the rare bird’s eye view of Ali Bugyal, Bedni Bugyal, Roopkund, Junargali & Rondi Saddle from Jatropani peak. On the north side of Jatropani, you’ll see unobstructed views of the grand Himalayan peaks like Nanda Ghunti, Bethartoli Himal & Trishul forming the southern wall of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary. Distance views of the famous Chaukhamba Peaks, Nilkantha & Kamet adds on to the panoramic views from Jatropani. Descend down to Khopariya Tal or Daldum (if you are descending via alternate trail).

Start off at ease in the morning and descend all the way down to Lohajung. 2G Network at Brahmatal is good enough for posting Instagram Stories that you’d love to share from the trek.
