Bijli Mahadeo is one of the easiest and the most beautiful treks in Kullu Valley. In this temple of lightning, it is said that the tall staff attracts divine blessings in the form of lightning. It is believed that the priest of the temple has to restore the Shiva linga placed inside the temple using butter and sattoo after every lightning as it shatters to pieces with flash of lightning.
The sylvan surroundings of the quiet valley are mesmerizing, with a wide array of deodar and pine forests of “Kais Wildlife Reserve”. This is complemented by the beautiful apple, pomegranate and pear orchards of Jana Village. The trek becomes more interesting with overnight camping inside a forested ridge at Matikochar.
