Kedarnath Trek is at an altitude of 3584 m. A magnificent temple was built by the Pandavas at the base of Kedarnath peak's southeastern face, and millions of pilgrims now come here to offer their prayers to Lord Shiva. The trek starts from Gaurikund, Where there is a hot water Sulphur Spring. While approaching Kedarnath, we pass through stately forests and come across some beautiful waterfalls. Kedarnath to Vasukital is a continuous ascent, and a great trek. The view of Chaukhamba Peaks and Mandakini Valley is a wonderful from here. Vasukital Lake, about ½ kms in radius, with crystal clear waters will possible take you into an immediate trance.
