TREKKING
Along
the right bank of bhagirathi stands the shrine of Gangotri dedicated to the
Goddess. Perched at a height of 3042m; it was constructed in the early 18th
century by a Gorkha Commander, Amar Singh Thapa. Now it's a famous pilgrimage
center. The picturesque pilgrimage in the hinter lands of the Himalayas.From
Gangotri the trek takes you to 'Gaumukh' (translates to cows mouth), the
mythological source of the river Ganges, which is at the snout of the Gangotri
glacier. The Gaumukh Glacier is the source of Bhagirathi (Ganga) and is held in
high esteem by the devouts who do no miss the opportunity to have a holy dip in
the bone chilling icy water. It is 18 kms from Gangotri. This trek combines the
experience of mountain climbing, rock climbing, boulder-hopping and glacier
traversing. The trek is not a very rigorous one and is easily negotiable by non
mountaineers too. From Gangotri the trail move along the beaten track towards
Chirbasa, which offers a clear view of the Bhagirathi Peak. Beyond Chirbasa the
terrain becomes really desolate - in fact, many trekkers refer to it as the
"Arctic Tundra". From Chirbasa it's on to Bhojwasa. Gaumukh, the
source of the sacred river Ganges, is just four kilometers ahead. From Gaumukh
to Nandanvan, one traverses along the Gangotri and Chatturangini glaciers. Pitch
a camp at the junction of chatturangini and Bhagirathi gangotri glaciers. From
Nandanvan, view the Shivling, Bhagirathi, Sudarshana, thelu peaks and Kedar
Dome. From Gaumukh to Tapovan the ascent is steep before arriving at the lush
green meadows of tapovan,. It is an alpine meadow nestling in the shadow of the
Bhagirathi peaks. From here, the Shivlinga Peak looks like an ice-cream cone
rising towards the sky.
There are ideal spots for camping which are also base camps for Bhagirathi,
Shivling, Meru, Kedardom and many other peaks the Garhwal Himalayas.
Enjoy
the 8 - 10 days trip to the heart of majestic mountains, and trekking to the
source of the most important river and the living Goddess of India, The Ganges.
We make exclusive walks to the base of of high peaks and to witness the out
standing sun rise and sun set on Shivling and Bhagirathi group of peaks. One
joins Indian pilgrims doing their pilgrimage to the source of Ganges and
encounters Babas & Sadhus on trek, some of them living round the year in
difficult cold conditions doing yoga, meditation and other spiritual practices.

peaks. After breakfast trek to Gomukh (3890mt), the source of the Ganges.
Gomukh is where the water of Ganga trickle down from the glaciers. The
sages called it 'Gomukh', because in the distant past, it probably
appeared like a cow's mouth. Explore the area and trek to Tapovan, one of
the finest high altitude alpine meadows in the area. The trek from Gomukh
to Tapovan is ascent steep, and as we climb, the view of the surrounding
peaks become clearer. The appear to be just a stone's throw away. Tapovan
known for its beautiful meadows that encircle the base camp of the
Shivling peak, Tapovan is a very pleasant surprised spot with a large
meadow complete with bubbling streams, wildflowers and campsides. Herds of
Bharal (blue mountain goats) is a common sight from here on mountain
ridges.On the far side of the glacier the Bhagarithi I ,II , III (6454mt),
provide an equally impressive backdrop. It is also the little wonder where

summer month. Arrive Tapovan and camp. Dinner and overnight camp.
It is said that there is
similarity between the Shivling and the Matterhorn peak in the Alps.

glacier runs between two ranges and the landslides make a layer of rockey
moraine on the ice which makes the walking easier. The glacier walk is
very slippery and a slight lack of concentration would be dangerous. Huge
crevasses gaped here and there. After a walking for about a kilometer
there is a vertical ascent. Big rocks enroute offer grips and foot - holds
