Kedarkantha Trek
The Kedarkantha Winter Trek offers a mesmerizing Himalayan adventure that combines manageable terrains with snow-laden beauty—making it ideal for both beginners and seasoned trekkers. Spread across 5 days and 4 nights (with some options for 6 days and 5 nights), this trek begins from the quaint village of Sankri nestled in Uttarkashi's Govind Wildlife Sanctuary. Your journey winds through dense pine, oak, and rhododendron forests, leads to the frozen charm of Juda Ka Talab, and culminates in the breathtaking summit of Kedarkantha at around 12,500 ft. Prices generally fall between ₹6,000–₹12,000 for the standard 4-night tour or ₹7,000–₹14,000 for 5 nights, depending on inclusions like transport, meals, guide services, and season timing.
There’s a distinct magic to the scenery of the Kedarkantha Trek that captivates every traveler. Along your ascent, you'll traverse serene alpine meadows that gleam under a blanket of snow, walk through forests heavy with frosted branches, and stand before Juda Ka Talab—a serene lake that freezes into a surreal mirror during peak winter
. At the summit, the panoramic spectacle is unforgettable: a 360° vista of towering peaks like Swargarohini, Bandarpoonch, and Kala Nag against crisp blue skies
. Whether it's the silent woods, delicate alpine flora dotting the path, or the sunrise above snowy crests, every moment becomes a visual poem of nature’s grandeur in the heart of Uttarakhand.
