Overview

Located at a very short distance from Badrinath Dham, this pristine glacial lake attracts adventure lovers to add one more exciting accomplishment to their trekking life. Satopanth Lake is a beautiful green triangle-shaped lake nestled amidst the astonishing ranges of the Garhwal region and offers a soul-soothing ambiance of the scenic splendors. There is an unflinching belief among the locals and tourists that it has a deep connection with Hindu mythology. The three different corners of the lake symbolize the divine meditative place of three supreme deities of Hindus- Lord Brahma, Lord, Vishnu, and Lord Mahesh. A majority of Hindu pilgrims flock to this place on solar and lunar fortnights as they believe that taking bath in this lake on these special days is very auspicious.

The trek to Satopanth Base Camp commences from Mana Village, the last Indian village located only 3 km away from Badrinath. However, the trek is a bit hazardous but the challenges and difficulties are well rewarded with unprecedented scenic vistas. While covering this challenging trail, a trekker can also witness the mesmerizing views of Vasudhara Falls and the irresistible views of Himalayan peaks like Swargarohini, Chaukhamba, and Neelkanth.
