About the Tour

We assemble in New Delhi and drive to Rishikesh and further continue driving till Govind ghat with enroutr halt in Joshimath. From Govind ghat, we start the trek on a steep gradient to Ghangria, the base camp for the treks to Valley of Flowers and Hemkund Sahib. Since camping and overnight stay is not allowed in the Valley of Flowers, Ghangria becomes the logical base camp for the trek. First day we walk 10 kms walk from Ghangria to the valley and back. The next day we trek 12 kms to Hemkund Sahib and back to Ghangria. Hemkund Sahib at a height of 4329 mts is a pilgrimage center of both, the Hindus and Sikhs. The name Hemkund Sahib denotes the presence of a ‘tank of snow’. Its water is crystal clear filled with fragrant lotus flowers, giving it a sublime grandeur. At this celestial heights are a gurudwara (Sikh place of worship) and temple (Hindu place of worship).
