About this drive
The Manimahesh Lake is situated 26 kilometres from Bharmour in the Budhil valley, one of the chief pilgrimage spots in Himachal Pradesh. The lake is situated at an altitude of 13,000 feet at the foot of the Kailash peak (18,564 ft). Every year, on the eighth day of the light half of the moon in the month of Bhadon, a fair is held at this lake, which attracts thousands of pilgrims who assemble here to take a dip in the holy water. It is a high-altitude lake with an elevation of 4,080 meters close to the Manimahesh Kailash Peak in the Pir Panjal Range of the Himalayas. Volunteers must reach Hadsar on 27th or 28th at Gauri Kund.
