A Captivating Trekking Experience at Bhalu Dam! Bhalu Dam is a perfect destination for amateur trekkers seeking an adventure amidst the serene beauty of nature. Located in an idyllic setting, this trekking trail offers a captivating experience that combines tranquility, natural splendor, and a touch of excitement. The lush greenery, untouched landscapes, and the harmonious coexistence of flora and fauna create an atmosphere of awe and respect. The trail at Bhalu Dam is a delight for nature enthusiasts. As you navigate through the wilderness, you'll encounter a wild and untamed environment that adds an element of excitement to your trek. It's essential, however, to remember that venturing into the forest requires caution and respect for the ecosystem. Accompanying a trained guide is highly recommended to ensure both your safety and the preservation of the area. While the forest can be mesmerizing, it can also evoke eerie vibes for some. It's important to be aware of your surroundings and listen to your instincts. If at any point you feel uncomfortable or uneasy, it's advisable to return. Amidst the captivating surroundings, the symphony of birds chirping and the tranquil sounds of the forest create a truly memorable experience. The melodies of nature accompany you along the trail, enhancing the sense of tranquility and providing a refreshing respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Just be mindful of the forest's atmosphere and immerse yourself in the symphony of the birds and the enchanting ambiance of the surroundings. P.S. : We didn't trek down till the dam and returned half way due to time constraints.

Anyone going to Ranikhet, must visit this place in the thick jungle. It seems some Britisher build this dam over a century ago purely for the benefit of wild life (bhalu !). And this purpose has been served magnificently. It has a large all weather lake. At the Chaubatiya garden entrance, one can find an authorised guide to take you to the dam excursion. It’s about 5.5 km for the return walk, mostly downhill while going and uphill while returning. Airtel works fine here. There is no boating.

Bhalu dam is a dam situated near choubatia garden, to reach this dam one needs to reach choubatia garden, then there is a 5 km. Trek in the bhalu dam forest area. This Dam is an artificial lake (reservoir) adorned in the preserved forest area in order to quench the thirst of soldiers, this dam was constructed in 1903 by the then viceroy(britishers) Overall its a hidden beauty and also a peaceful and tranquil destination.

During that period of time, you can find a local fruit called 'Kafal' in trees. This looks like, small cherry and tastes so good. Along with this you can have Pine seeds, which are good in taste as well as good for health. The track is around of 4-6 Kms one side from chaubatia garden.
