Here, surrounded by dramatic scenery and snow-capped peaks, you acclimatize for the push towards Gaumukh, the source of the holy Ganges.

Kedartal, one of the highest glacial lakes in the Garhwal Himalayas, offers a surreal and tranquil experience with its crystal-clear waters reflecting towering peaks.
