Two and a half kilometres beyond the main shrine, on a higher peak at 1,950 metres, Bhairav Nath is the small temple that traditionally completes the pilgrimage. The climb adds about three more hours each way, with steep sections and thin mountain air.
A cable car (operational since 2024) now runs between the main shrine and Bhairav Nath, cutting the journey to a few minutes. Even with the cable car, many pilgrims walk at least one direction. The view from the temple, over the green Trikuta valley and the snow-capped Pir Panjal, is the best on the whole route.
