Kedarkantha Trek, located in Uttarakhand’s Govind Pashu Vihar National Park, is one of India’s most loved Himalayan treks. Its popularity spans both seasoned trekkers and first-timers.
The trek’s highlight is the rewarding summit climb. Starting from the base camp, the towering summit guides your ascent. The route steadily climbs a snowy slope, offering breathtaking views of the upper Himalayas throughout. While the climb gets steep and challenging near the top, the stunning mountain panoramas make it worth the effort.
Reaching the summit brings an unmatched sense of achievement, making Kedarkantha a favorite among beginners seeking adventure.
Beyond the summit, the trek features beautiful, well-placed clearings perfect for rest and camping — rare gems on Himalayan trails. These clearings provide amazing vantage points to soak in the natural beauty.
Another unique aspect is the trek’s rich and diverse forests that surround you on all routes, enhancing the immersive Himalayan experience.
