Get ready to experience the thrilling adventure of the Kedarkantha Trek, one of India’s most well-liked winter trekking routes. This hike, hidden in Uttarakhand’s Uttarkashi area, offers the ideal balance of adventure and natural beauty. The Kedarkantha trek, surrounded by tall pine trees and covered with snow, is regarded as one of the best snow treks in the world. Situated 12,500 feet above sea level, the journey challenges those who dare due to its different surfaces and constantly shifting scenery. This trek is perfect if you want to see the Himalayas' natural beauty in the winter. You will pass through a range of attractive environments on the journey, such as thick forests, clearings, frozen lakes, and snow-covered routes.
Unique Features of the Kedarkantha Trek
One of the trek’s strong characteristics is that it is situated within the Govind Wildlife Sanctuary, which is home to many different kinds of wildlife and incredible natural beauty. Additionally, the journey goes through historic settlements that are thought to have been established during the Mahabharata period. These settlements provide your trekking experience with a special cultural touch, giving you the impression that you have traveled back in time.
Kedarkantha: A Perfect Trek for Beginners
The Kedarkantha trek is a possible journey with challenges and rewards even for beginners. From mid-November onwards, when the snow is at its most extensive, November to April is the ideal time to visit this winter wonderland. The journey becomes even more amazing for trekkers at this point because the campsites are completely covered in snow.
Why Kedarkantha Stands Out
While every Himalayan climb has its unique charm, Kedarkantha stands out due to its distinct quality. Trekking in the Himalayas offers a break from the busyness of the city and an opportunity to experience nature at its purest. The Kedarkantha Trek tests your physical and mental limits while rewarding you with incredible views at every turn. Those who participate in this trek will be rewarded with quiet frozen lakes, brilliant green forests, snow-capped peaks, and a holy top. Every step of the journey at Sankri Base Camp is filled with amazing views that are bound to make an impression.
Journey to Sankri Village
The Kedarkantha trip is especially well-known in the winter. It begins in Sankri, a charming village located roughly 210 kilometers away from Dehradun. You will be treated to a wonderful view as you set out early in the morning and begin ascending the high slopes. You will see beautiful meadows and clearings throughout the route, each one more lovely than the previous.
Experience the Himalayan Winter
The Himalayan winter is completely another experience. Temperatures drop to freezing or lower as the snow begins to fall, blocking numerous roads and leaving large portions of the area inaccessible.
The trip from Dehradun to Sankri via Mussories is attractive in itself. You will go through the hills on routes that provide glorious views of the Himalayan region. You will pass through green meadows and roads covered in snow, leading to a better view of the Himalayan peaks, so don’t forget to bring your camera. There are quiet spots throughout the route where you may stop and take in the beautiful views, such as the lakes and streams. The meadows covered in snow offer a great chance for winter skiing enthusiasts to get some action during the colder months. It's a thrilling approach to enjoying the snow in the Himalayas, whether you’re an experienced skier or a beginner.
Best Trek for Beginners
Kedarkantha is an excellent starting point for individuals who are unfamiliar with high-altitude trekking. Reaching across ranges such as the Burane Range, Bandarpoonch Peaks, Rupin Range, Har ki Dun, Swargarohini Peaks, and imposing Black Peak, the views from height are just fabulous. The Himalayas and their pure beauty are seen from different angles, with every step at 12,500 feet. The highest point of the trek is an easy-to-handle challenge for both experienced and first-time trekkers.
Breathtaking Campsites Along Kedarkantha Trek
Several magnificent campsites are available along the Kedarkantha trek, which improves the natural beauty. You will camp in beautiful settings every night, whether it’s in the middle of a thick pine forest or clearings with unobstructed views of snow-capped peaks. Juda ka Talab is a peaceful lake covered by woodlands that is a popular campground for the walk. It’s an ideal place to think back on the day’s trek. Almost mid-November, the campsites themselves are dusted with snow, making the entire area a dream come true. The evening spent in these campgrounds is sure to be memorable, whether you are observing the night sky, taking in the peacefulness of the mountains, or cooking a nice supper over the campfire.
Enchanted Forests of Kedarkantha
Another remarkable aspect of the Kedarkantha Trek is the captivating forest. The variety of woodlands you walk through on the trek will fascinate your senses. Feeling one with nature is achieved through the immersive experience created by the diverse flora and rich vegetation.

It seems exciting to be about to go on trek every time, doesn't it? But if you’re feeling a little confused about what to bring! With an exhaustive list of the essentials for your trek with Himalayan Daredevils, we’ve got you covered. Here’s what you’ll need in your backpack for everything from staying hydrated and safe to staying warm in the chilly Himalayan winds.
You will experience a wide range of weather conditions while trekking in the Himalayas, so bringing suitable clothing is essential to your comfort. Let’s examine it:
Down jackets and fleece jackets: Jackets are your go-to items in extremely chilly weather. Higher places can see a sharp drop in temperature. So you better ensure you have put both layers on.
Waterproof jacket: You never know when snow or rain will suddenly fall. You need a waterproof jacket to stay warm and dry.
Trekking trousers: Pack clothes that dry quickly; it should be sufficient to bring two trekking pants and two breathable, moisture-wicking t-shirts for a four- to five-day hike. This will keep you comfortable and refreshed during the trip.
Thermal innerwear: The cold might be particularly strong at night. Warm thermal clothing is ideal for staying warm inside your tent.
Gloves, a beanie, and a neck warmer: These are little but just as necessary items. Your hands will stay warm with gloves, and you may protect yourself from cold with a beanie and neck warmer.
Wollen socks and hiking shoes: When trekking, comfort is everything! An excellent set of waterproof hiking boots is important. Remember to include a few pairs of warm wool socks for those chilly evenings and long trekking trips.
Equally important as the clothes you wear is the gear you use. To travel the roads, you’ll need the following:
Durable backpack: To fill all of your necessities, you will need a large, durable backpack. Make sure it isn’t too heavy and has enough room for all your belongings.
Trekking pants: These are necessary for maintaining stability on uneven ground, particularly on sharp ascents or descents.
Headlamp with Extra Batteries: You’ll likely be hiking late at night or in the early morning. Having a headlamp will free up your hands and maintain visibility of your path.
UV-protective sunglasses: The sun rays intensify with height. Your eyes will protected from the damaging UV rays by a good pair of sunglasses.
Water bottles: Bring an extra water bottle with you on any journey because staying hydrated is important. Reusable bottles work best because there are water refill stations on some climbs.
First Aid Kit: Include basic medical materials such as blister treatment, bandages, disinfectants, and painkillers in your kit. It is always preferable to be ready for minor wounds.
Swiss knife or multi-tool: A useful tool for cutting ropes, preparing meals, and possibly even performing some last-minute repairs while hiking.
Protecting your health and safety is of the highest priority when trekking, especially in the highlands. What you will need is as follows:
High SPF sunscreen and lip balm: The sun’s UV rays are powerful in the mountains even in the winter. You can prevent sunburn on your skin and your chapped lips by using lip balm and sunscreen.
Electrolyte Powder: It’s important to stay hydrated, and putting electrolytes in your water will speed up your recovery and maintain your energy.
Snacks for Energy: Eat snacks like trail mix energy bars and dried fruits to stay energized. For extended periods of trekking, you’ll require that extra encouragement.
Additional needs: make sure to pack ID-proof and trekking permits with you and always keep these on hand! They are required for registration and checkpoints.
Whether you’re going on a quick 4-day hike or a week-long trip through the Himalayas, packing wisely will improve your experience significantly.
By Air:
Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, is the closest airport to Kedarkantha. It has daily flights to major cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore. The most feasible and flexible alternative is to rent a private taxi once you get to the airport. Taxis are accessible all day long; you may rent one at the airport or reserve one in advance using several travel apps. There are shared taxis as well; however, these could take a little longer to leave because they are waiting for more people.
There are beautiful mountain roads along the roughly 200-kilometer journey from Dehradun to Sankri. It takes about eight hours to complete the trip. It is advised that you travel to Dehradun early in the morning to give yourself sufficient time to arrive in Sankri before sunset, as the roads can be difficult to follow after dark. It is advisable to spend the night in Dehradun if you arrive in the afternoon or evening and start your drive to Sankri the following morning.
By Train:
If you decide to travel by train, the closest station is Dehradun Railway Station. Trains like the Nanda Devi Express, Shatabdi Express, and Jan Shatabdi connect to important cities like Delhi, Kolkata, and Lucknow. Trains usually arrive in the late afternoon or early morning. For Sankri, which leaves from Mussories Bus Stand next to the railway.
Plan your train arrival time appropriately, as shared taxis typically run in the morning (between 7 and 9 AM). You might have to spend the night in Dehradun if you reach later in the day, then start your trek to Sankri the following morning. Similar to the flight route, the road distance between Dehradun and Sankri is roughly 200 miles, and the driving time is about 8 hours. A private taxi may be a more comfortable and timely choice for group travel.
By Road:
Travelers who would rather drive or take public transportation can go by road to Sankri. Regular buses leave early at 5:30 AM from the Dehradun Bus Stand ( also known as Mussorie Bus Stand), with the final bus leaving by 8:00 AM. The trip to Sankri takes about eight hours, and these buses are usually state-run or semi-luxury. To guarantee your seat, it’s best to purchase your bus tickets in advance during the busiest trekking seasons ( December to March and April to June).
You can book a private cab from Dehradun if you’d like additional comfort and flexibility. You can do this through ride-sharing services or local firms. In case you’re traveling from nearby towns like Delhi, buses depart from ISBT Kashmere Gate, with the transit hub being Dehradun. It takes about 6-7 hours to travel 250 miles from Delhi to Dehradun. From Dehradun, you will need to take a local bus or taxi to Sankri.
If you choose to drive yourself, the route offers a combination of valley and mountain views as it travels past lovely spots like Purola, Mori, and Mussorie. However, self-driving calls for prior experience in mountainous areas, and it’s best to start early in the day to avoid doing so at night.
Trekking to Kedarkantha demands a combination of cardiovascular endurance, strength, and flexibility. Here's a comprehensive fitness preparation guide to help you get trek-ready:

Ans 1:
You can do the Kedarkantha trip at any time of the year; the perfect moment will depend on what you like. The walk is particularly popular in the winter ( December to March) when everything is beautifully covered in snow. For those looking for an exciting snow journey, this is perfect. Nature lovers can enjoy a pleasant experience during the springtime ( April to June) when the snow melts and the roads turn lush and green with flowering flowers. After the monsoon, autumn (September to November) brings bright colors and open skies, adding to the natural beauty and delightful nature of the walk. While every season has its appeal, winter is the best time to visit if you want to see the journey in all of its snow-covered beauty.
Ans 2:
Since the Kedarkantha journey is rated as moderate, both new and skilled trekkers can benefit from it. Although the last part of the trail to the summit is quite high, the route is directed and the rise is moderate. You will be trekking for four to six hours a day on average, so strength and stamina are required. Trekking in the winter might be challenging, although not very so because of the snow and chilly weather. However, the walk is feasible if you are fit and have a minimal level of preparedness. The stunning views of mountains covered in snow like Swargarohini, Bandarpoonch, and Black Peak that await you at the summit make the effort worthwhile. For those looking for an introduction to Himalayan trekking, this is a great journey.
Ans 3:
During the Kedarkantha trip, high-altitude sickness, also known as acute mountain sickness (AMS), is usually not a serious worry. Although altitude sickness can happen at the trek’s highest point of 12,500 feet, most trekkers only have moderate symptoms, if any at all. Your body may adjust gradually in the campsites at Kedarkantha Base Camp (11,250) and Juda Ka Talab ( 8,450) feet, which lowers your chance of developing altitude sickness (AMS). It’s important to stay hydrated, climb gradually, and pay attention to what your body is telling you to reduce any problems. You must notify your trip leader right away if you experience any symptoms, such as headaches, nausea, or dizziness. Usually, descending aids in the rapid relief of symptoms.
Ans 4:
Indeed, despite their the same names, Kedarkantha and Kedarnath are two very different treks and destinations. Located in Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand’s Govind Wildlife Sanctuary, Kedarkantha is a well-liked trekking destination. It is popular for its striking sights, roads covered with snow, and trekker-friendly experience. On the other hand, Kedarnath is a well-known pilgrimage destination that is a stop on the Char Dham Yatra and is the location of one of the twelve Jyotirlingas. For devotees, the Kedarnath trek is primarily a spiritual trip that leads to the Kedarnath temple. Kedarkantha is more of a religious and cultural attraction than it is an exciting trekking location.
Ans 5:
Six days is the normal time of the Kedarkantha trek, which includes travel time to and from Dehradun. The actual walk lasts four days and covers a distance of roughly 20 to 22 kilometers. Sankri, the base village, is an hour's travel from Dehradun on the first day. You hike from Sankri to Juda ka Talab to the Kedarkantha Base Camp. On day four, you will reach the summit and make your way back to Juda ka Talab. You return to Sankri on Day 5, then on Day 6, you take an 8-hour drive back to Dehradun. The walk lasts between four and six hours each day and is moderate.
Ans 6:
You don’t need to be an experienced climber to complete the Kedarkantha journey because it is rated as a moderate trek, but you need to be in decent physical condition. You will be required for 4-to-6 hours of daily trekking, frequently on inclines; therefore, an initial stage of cardiovascular fitness is required. You can help yourself prepare by swimming, jogging, or brisk walking for at least 30 minutes daily for three to four weeks before the trip. The ascent will be easier if you strengthen your legs, so you should include exercises like lunges and squats in your program. Stretching exercises should be done regularly because flexibility is also important. All things considered, a fit person will find the walk to be manageable and enjoyable.
