The Manimahesh Lake

MANIMAHESH (3,950 m):

 The Manimahesh Lake, high up in the mountains near Bharmaur, is an important place of pilgrimage.

The solitary Manimahesh Kailash Peak- the legendary abode of Shiva, is reflected in its still waters.

A little temple in the shikhara style with an exquisite brass image of Lakshmi Devi as Mahishasuramardini stands near-by.

Every year, following Janmashtami, the annual Manimahesh Yatra is undertaken.

The pilgrimage starts from Chamba from the Lakshaminarayan Temple and devotees wend their way up the arduous track from Bharmaur to take a sacred dip in the waters of the lake.
