The silently flowing Kedar Ganga is visible from the top, deep down in the gorge.

Then you will witness the first glimpse of Thalaysagar and every step will take you closer to this mystical mountain.

Before reaching Bhoj Kharak there is a steep and slant rock amidst the trail with space of just a few steps, it is also known as Spider Wall amongst trekkers.

During early June or late October if the rocky face is covered with snow then it will require some skills to cross this section because one slip can drag you to few hundred feets below.

Cross this section and you’ll reach Bhoj Kharak.

Enjoy the mesmerising views of Bhrigupanth peak and you near to Kedar Kharak.

Cross the zone of Gila Pahar and if it is not a proper condition, you can take the trek route down to Kedar Ganga, cross the river and then continue hiking against the river flow till you cross the Gila Pahar intersection and then hike back to the trail that leads to Kedar Kharak.

A wide valley opens up as you proceed towards Lower Kedar Kharak (4100mts) and the trek ends up at the beautiful meadow of Kedar Kharak situated at an elevation of 4,280mts above sea level.

The trek demands good physical strength even though it extends up to 5 KM only.

But in the end it is a well paid off effort because Kedar Kharak is one of the most beautiful campsites in the Gangotri National Park region.

Bharal (Blue Sheep) visiting the location for grazing arranges a perfect background for the location.

The sight of Bhrigupanth and Thalaysagar peaks standing high together is like a surreal dream.

Cross the brook carrying icy cold water and climb the steep rocky terrain. Keep following the cairn markings to ensure that you are on the right trail.

After climbing the final ridge, Kedar Bamak Glacier's views along with other lakes become obvious from a distance.

The foot of Mt. Bhrigupanth and Mt. Thalaysagar merges with the Kedar Bamak Glacier would be pleasing sight. Continue trekking for another hour further to behold the magnificent views of the high altitude lake, the immaculate Kedar Tal.
