Renowned for its temple ruins,Lakhamandal situated on the banks of river Yamuna is often associated with the Lakhshagriha that is described in Mahabharata. The story goes that the Kaurava Prince Duryodhana had built a lac palace here, in which he tried to burn his cousins- the Pandavas alive. The Pandavas, however managed to escape through a secret passage, which the locals say still exists even today. An important attraction of Lakhamandal is its temple dedicated to Bhagwati and Lord Shiva. The best time to visit the temple is during the local Diwali, which is generally held one month after the Diwali in the plains.

A cultural and historical trek in the Jaunsar-Babar region, one gets to see and learn a lot of things during the trek E.g., The Jaunsaris tribes located at the foothills of the Garhwal Himalayas are known to practice polygamy as well as polyandry. Furthermore as the route of the trek is rich with flora and fauna, it makes for an unforgettable experience for ornithologists and the naturalists.
