Overview


The Prashar lake trek is the perfect weekend trip from Delhi to enjoy some peaceful time while also satisfying your inner adrenal junkie. 

Situated at an altitude of 2730 meters above sea level, the mystical lake is nestled among snow-covered mountains with the Beas river flowing downside. 

One of the most fascinating things about Prashar lake is that a mysterious island keeps floating in the lake all throughout the year. It seemingly looks as if it were rotating in an orbit around the Prashar Temple which is one of the must-visit places in Prashar.

To reach Prashar lake, one has to first cover the distance between Mandi and Parashar, where the village Mandi is the starting point for anyone visiting Prashar lake.  Prashar Trek distance sums up to be around 16 Kilometers to and fro which makes up for a wonderful uphill climbing experience.

The temple has mythical as well as historical significance as it dates back to the 13th century and was named after the sage Prashar. As far as legend goes, it is believed that this three-storied temple was built using a single tree. Interestingly, the stories associated with the temple go as far back in time as the Hindu epic Mahabharata. 

One of the reasons that this lake stirs curiosity in the minds of travelers is that the true depth of this lake still remains unknown. 

We organize this trek to Prashar in an effort to encourage passionate travelers to explore the hidden gems our country has to offer. Prashar lake is easily one of the best winter treks to do in India and a place that you must visit in Himachal.

In this weekend getaway, we take you to a winter wonderland. Although the cold weather and high altitude can put some strain on you, the view that you get to see is extraordinary and feels rewarding. Triund, Dhauladhar, and Hanuman Tibba are some of the peaks that are visible from the viewpoint.

The Prashar lake is treated as a sacred place by all the locals and once you reach this place, you won’t be able to stop yourself from getting lost in the spiritual essence that is palpable in the air. 

There are a ton of places to visit near Prashar lake, which are equally beautiful and can add to your experience. Bijli Mahadev Temple, Lord Ramchandra Temple, and Kulant Pith are a few examples of the same. Also, if you are looking for camping places to stay near Prashar lake then your best bet could be camping near Prashar lake, a forest guest house or one could take shelter in the Parashar temple itself.

The best time to do the Prashar lake trek is from November to  December when the mountains as well as the meadows are covered with a thick blanket of ivory snow. Although it remains accessible around the year, the presence of the snow just makes the entire experience even more breathtaking than it usually is.

I enjoyed a lot and made some really good friends. Abhishek and Ashwin will make you feel comfortable from the very start of trip. Highly recommended!

JustWravel Review by Deepanshu Goel

Deepanshu Goel

Travelled with JW for the first time, Jaisalmer trip (23-26 Dec) and it turned out to be an enthralling experience! Big shoutout to Lakshay and Divya for being so wonderful. Would love to be a part of future trips with JW. Suggestions: 1. Tent conditions can be improved 2. Longewala can be skipped and instead Kuldhara fort can be added. 3. Bus stops can be decided in advance.

JustWravel Review by Sruthi Meriya Joy

Sruthi Meriya Joy

It was indeed a memorable experience travelling with Just Wravel for a weekend trip to Jaisalmer. A specific shout out to our trip captain Divya ( She is a delight) and Lakshay for making the trip interesting and fun. It was my first solo trip and I am happy I chose Just Wravel and will cherish the memories made. Areas of improvement- Itinerary could been planned better. It was a 4 day long trip, almost 2 days were gone in just the commute.

JustWravel Review by Renu Verma

Renu Verma

I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing. Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well. I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel. I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.
