Bhyudar, India
This holy lake is located east of Ghangaria at a height of 4339m and can be reached by a trek along the mountain. There is a Sikh temple and a Hindu Lakshman temple near the lake. The lake is surrounded by seven ice cap peaks. A pond is located next to the Sikh temple (gurudwara). All pilgrims take
a dip in this. Water here is freezing. It is recommended to start your journey early in the morning from Govind dham (Ghangaria) and trek towards Hemkund Sahib. If one finds trekking difficult, horses can be hired also, with the cost from Ghangaria to Hem Kund approximately ₹500-₹750. However, the horse ride from Ghangaria is rather difficul as the way is just 2.5-3 feet wide and quite steep, it is actually easier to walk.
