SUMMARY:KEDARKANTHA
DESCRIPTION:  \nKedarKantha Trek\n \nIf you want to see the kind of fun treks are then check out our last trek video to Kedarkantha: \nItinerary :\nDates 24-May to 30 May\n\nDay 1(01-Dec): Dehradun to Sankri (187 km)-1920 m\nDay 2(02-Dec): Sankri to Juda Ka Talab -2774 ft\, 4km trek 5-6 hours\nDay 3(03-Dec): Juda Ka Talab to Kedarkantha base camp – 3429 ft\, 4km trek 5-6 hours\nDay 4(04-Dec): Kedarkantha base camp to Kedarkantha summit -3810 ft\, 8km trek 5-6 hours\nDay 5(05-Dec): Sankri to Dehradun : 187 km\n\nThe average Kedarkantha temperature in December hovers about 5 degrees Celsius in the day and -2 degrees Celsius at night\, during the winter season\n\n\n\n\nDAY:01 \n\n\n\n\n• DEHRADUN TO SANKRI/KOTGAWN (1\,920 M): 187 KM DRIVE IN 8 HOURS \n\n\n\n\nDAY:02 \n• SANKRI TO JUDA KA TALAB (2\,774 M): 4 KM TREK IN B3 TO 4 HOURS \n\n\n\n\nWe leave early from Sankri post breakfast and start trekking towards Juda Ka Talab. The path from Sankri to the base camp is a happening one. With kids on their way to the school and local village women starting their daily errands and chores\, the trek starts from the village crossing another village\, Saud\, before you reach the trail that leads to Kedarkantha. The trail takes you into the pine forest and starts to climb sharply until you reach a ridge after a while. On the ridge\, the trail evens out and widens. The density of the forest makes the walk very cool for the sun is not able to penetrate through the thickness of the pine and maple trees. You will finally reach Juda Ka Talab\, which is a small lake famous for three landmasses floating on it. For the night\, we come by the lake and enjoy the dinner under the gleaming presence of billions of stars!v \n\n\n\n\nDAY:03 \nJUDA KA TALAB TO KEDARKANTHA BASE CAMP (3\,429 M): 4 KM IN 3 HOURS \n\n\n\n\nMoving past Juda Ka Talab\, a trail takes you deeper into the dense pine forests. Continue walking and you will finally hit a meadow dotted with shepherd’s huts. After climbing another thousand feet\, you will reach the destination of the day – Kedarkantha base camp. It takes about 2-3 hours to complete this part of the trek. The trail from Juda Ka Talab till the base camp is indescribably beautiful and mesmerizing. It is the perfect location for photographers and nature lovers! The base camp is colder than the summit because of lack of insulation. Even from the base camp\, the famous peaks of Uttarakhand are visible at a stretch\, making it the perfect spot to camp at. \n\n\n\n\nDAY:04 \n• KEDARKANTHA BASE CAMP TO KEDARKANTHA SUMMIT (3\,810 M) AND \nBACK TO SANKRI/KOTGAWN (2\,713 M): 8 KM IN 5-6 HOURS \n\n\n\n\nThis is the day you’ve been working hard for! The trek from the base camp to the summit is not a long one. On reaching the summit\, your jaw is going to drop and your eyes will not blink. The Kedarkantha summit is marked by an arrangement of stones with a Trishul that points to the sky. The summit offers an astonishing 360-degree view of the peaks of Uttarakhand and the Chaainsheel Pass and Kailash ranges of Himachal.From the top\, you can also see the Har Ki Dun valley below. The story behind Kedarkantha is an interesting one. The name literally means the throat of Lord Shiva (Kedar refers to Lord Shiva and Kantha means Throat). The legend has it that this peak was supposed to be the original Kedarnath temple but Lord Shiva\, who disguised himself as a cow hiding from the Pandavas was disturbed during meditation by the villagers. The interruption made him change his location from this peak \n\n\n\n\nDAY:05 \nSANKRI TO DEHRADUN: 187 KM DRIVE IN 7 TO 8 HOURS \n\n\n\n\nGoing back home always feels great. But the drive will not make it easy for we take the same alluring road back to Dehradun. The landscape slowly changes from pine forests to wider roads as we head back towards Dehradun\, finally opening up into the bustling city life.v \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact us on WhatsApp \nhttps://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=919029099709 \n\n\nCost 8555 p.p\n\nInclusions \n\nTransport support from and to Dehradun\nStay for 5D/4N in tents and homestays\nAll meals (Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner)\nStarting from a pickup on day 1 to drop on day 5\nGuide and cook fees\nRent for camping equipment\nForest entry charges\nPlease note that personal luggage can be carried by mules and/or porters on a chargeable basis\n\nPS: Dry toilets alert 🙂\n\nExclusions\n\nTransport to reach Dehradun from hometown\nTips\, personal medicines\, phone calls etc\nAny transport support during the trek apart from what is included above\nAccommodation in Dehradun\nPersonal luggage with mass not exceeding 12kg per bag per person can be\nCarried by porters/mules @ Rs. 300 pre-day per bag.

The highest and longest ropeway in Asia after Gulmarg\, the Auli cable car covers a distance of 4 km. \nAuli is a land blessed with natural and cultural diversity. A land where people live in the lap of pristine nature. A land where trade once flourished between the great Himalayan Kingdoms. A land of heritage\, festivals and rituals\, a land of green meadows and snow-covered mountains. Welcome to Auli\, it’s a nature’s paradise. \nWith elevation from 2\,519 mts to 3\,050 mts above sea level\, Auli turns into an exciting snow field during winters. 3 km long ski slopes in Auli attract beginners and equally excite professional skiers alike.

A remarkable trekking route that passes through dense alpine forests of oak and deodar trees\, will take you to the rolling alpine meadow of Gorson Bugyal at an altitude of upto 3\,049 m. During your trek\, do not miss out on the spellbinding sights of the verdant vistas silhouetted against the backdrop of the high mountains of the mighty Himalayas romancing with the clouds.
