OVERVIEW:

Kedarkandha Trekking:

Kedarkantha is a popular trekking destination in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, situated within the Govind Wildlife Sanctuary in the Uttarkashi district. The Kedarkantha trek is known for its stunning views, rich flora and fauna, and relatively moderate difficulty, making it accessible to both novice and experienced trekkers. The trail takes trekkers through dense pine forests, charming meadows, and remote villages, eventually leading to the Kedarkantha summit at an altitude of about 12,500 feet (3,810 meters). From the summit, one can enjoy panoramic views of the snow-clad Himalayan peaks, including Swargarohini, Bandarpunch, and Black Peak.
