The Kalindi Khal Trek is perhaps one of the most challenging treks in the Gangotri region and the entire Garhwal region. The challenges are offered in terms of the terrain of the Gangotri region - glacial moraine, crevasses and avalanche prone topped up with the altitude which almost touches 6000 meter peak. The trek is ultra-remote and once you leave the Gangotri temple and pass away the pilgrim route till Gaumukh crossing few commercial settlements near Bhojbasa, there is nothings else till you exit to Mana on the other side of the pass. The route has had a history of fatal outcomes due to avalanches, crevasses and bad weather.
No Pain - No Gain. As the saying goes.. the trek offers spectacular views of the the Gangotri region which is has a dense cluster of few of the Himalayan giants. Peaks like Shivling, Gangotri group, Bhagarithi group, Satopanth, Vasuki Parvat, Kalindi peak, Arwa group of peaks and others keep you charmed throughout the route. The sight of Swetha glacier and Kalindi glacier are mind blowing. Constant sound of the breaking glacier and cracking ice keeps you on high alert. The high altitude lake of Vasuki Tal surrounded by high peaks of the Himalayas remains a memorable experience forever.. and finally, walking on the less taken path connecting the 2 pure shrines of Gangotri and Badrinath adds enough to the thrill of trekking this route.. However, it is not for the faint hearted and demands excellent physical conditioning and more than that is required tough mental stamina and endurance.
