The Kedarkantha Trek is a classic winter trek located in the Govind Pashu Vihar National Park in Uttarakhand, known for its stunning views, scenic landscapes, and rewarding summit. This moderate-difficulty trek takes you through some of the most beautiful forests of pine, oak, and deodar, with wide-open meadows offering panoramic vistas of the snow-clad Himalayan peaks.
Reaching an altitude of 3,860 meters (12,665 feet), the Kedarkantha Trek is accessible even for beginners with some previous trekking experience. The trek typically spans 5-6 days, covering 20-25 km, and is renowned for its beautiful winter scenery, making it a top choice for trekkers seeking snow-covered trails. The trek is particularly popular from December to April, when the region is blanketed in snow, offering the perfect conditions for winter trekking.
On the way, trekkers pass through charming Himalayan villages, enjoy local hospitality, and gain an insight into the culture of the region. The highlight of the Kedarkantha Trek is reaching the summit, where trekkers are rewarded with breathtaking 360-degree views of the surrounding mountain ranges, including the majestic Swargarohini, Black Peak, and Bandarpoonch.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced trekker, the Kedarkantha Trek offers a fulfilling adventure amidst some of the most picturesque landscapes of Uttarakhand.
