View All Days

Day 1

DEHRADUN - SANKARI 200 KMS. / 09HRS. DRIVE)

Morning pick from Dehradun and start journy by road to the base camp, the starting point for the upcoming trek. While the entire Journey from Dehradun to Sankri holds its own allure, a particularly noteworthy aspect is the sight of majestic pine trees that greet you after the passage through Purola. The most enchanting stretch, however, unfolds as you traverse the Mori valley alongside the Tonnes River. Sankri, positioned at an elevation of 2,000 meters (6,400 feet), boasts limited network connectivity due to its high-altitude location. Overnight stay in Sankri.

Day 2

SANKARI - JUDA KA TALAB (04 KMS. TREK / 03 HRS)

Today morning journey progresses towards the next destination—Juda Ka Talab. This enchanting location spans an elevation ranging from 6,400 feet to 9,100 feet. The hike spans approximately four hours and guides travelers through dense pine forests, groves of maple trees, and numerous babbling streams. Along this picturesque trail, the captivating Juda Ka Talab awaits.

The legends surrounding Juda Ka Talab are diverse, each weaving its own unique narrative. One such tale recounts that Lord Shiva, in ancient times, sought solace at this very site for his meditation. Overcome by thirst, he is said to have plucked a single strand of hair from his mane and cast it upon the earth. This simple gesture is said to have given rise to the tranquil pool of water that now graces this location. Another local version of the story narrates the existence of two distinct water bodies that eventually merged into the unified expanse known as Juda Ka Talab.

Day 3

JUDA KA TALAB - KEDARKANTHA BASE CAMP (04 KMS. TREK / 03 HRS)

In this leg of the trek, we will cover a total distance of 4 kilometers while ascending from an altitude of 9,100 feet to 11,250 feet. During this phase, participants will be treated to panoramic views of renowned mountains such as Bandarpoonch, Swargarohini, Kala Naag, and Ranglana. These mountains carry a plethora of myths and tales, yet as the adage goes, "Find contentment in the experience, not in the narrative," as myths and legends can evolve. Nevertheless, the imprints of an experience remain unparalleled.

Nightfall will find us stationed at the Kedarkantha Base Camp. The subsequent day will see us embarking towards the summit, ready to conquer the next leg of the journey.

Day 4

KEDARKANTHA BASE CAMP - KEDARKANTHA SUMMIT - KEDARKANTHA BASE CAMP

The stunning Himalayan vistas that unfold at the culmination of the battle serve as ample recompense for the exertions invested. Moreover, nestled in a picturesque expanse, stands a modest temple dedicated to the deities Shiva, Parvati, and Ganesha. This locale is recognized as a sanctum, with a legend narrating Lord Shiva's bestowal of his blessings upon it. This tale stems from the annals of mythology. Astonishingly, an extraordinary element about this spot awaits your discovery—a connection that draws you back repeatedly, compelling you to return as often as possible. Here, avenues to receive divine favor lie open.

Search for the sanctuary that resonates with your inner tranquility, fortifying you for the rigors of daily life. When time permits, consider indulging in moments of meditation. This proves to be the most efficacious approach to unwind and revitalize following a whirlwind journey. Following a sojourn in this haven, our descent shall eventually commence, guiding us back to the Kedarkantha Base camp.
