Ganges Trek
to the source of the Ganges. This expedition takes us to the heart of the majestic
Gahrwhal Himalayas, trekking to the source of the most important and holiest river in
India, the Ganges.
We also trek to one of the finest alpine meadows in the Himalayas; Tapovan, the
meditation ground for the Gods at the base of the magnificent mountain
"Shivling". Known as the Mattahorn of the Himalayas, this mountain is one of the
most impressive in the whole range. We stay one full day in Tapovan to witness the
outstanding sunrise and sunset on Shivling and the Bhagirathi group of Mountains.
This trek is immensely interesting for the fact that there will be many Pilgrims
walking up to one of the holiest places in the Hindu world. White water rafting at
Rishikesh is also included in this trek itinerary. We will also take the opportunity to
see the magnificent Taj Mahal in Agra as a conclusion to the trip. |
