A Journey to the Source of River Ganga

Gaumukh Tapovan is one of the most rewarding treks you will ever do.

There are summit views and there are ‘big’ summit views. On the Gaumukh Tapovan trek, you don’t just see the best views of Mt Shivling. You see Mt Shivling right from the base to its summit. And if you don’t know about Mt Shivling, it’s one of the most beautiful looking mountains in our country. No wonder the mountain has been featured in our gold calendar every year since it was published.

But wait. Not only Mt Shivling, you see the Bhagirathi sisters from top to bottom. Sometimes we feel the Bhagirathi sisters are even grander than Mt Shivling because the three of them form a massif, which dominates the landscape.

Then why do more people not do the trek you ask?

Unfortunately, the popularity of other treks brought the Gaumukh Tapovan trek down from its grace. It’s almost like a new generation movie star replaced an older star. It sounds silly, but that’s what happened to the Gaumukh Tapovan trek. Treks like Roopkund, Rupin Pass and the Hampta Pass gained popularity. And Gaumukh Tapovan fell in popularity.

As is the mentality of most trekkers, if they find one trek attractive, they just rush towards the new offering. It is a mistake.

Before we begin, here are some quick facts about the Gaumukh Tapovan trek:

Gaumukh Trek is a 46 km trek hiked over 6 days (8 days including the drive to and from the trek,) in the Greater Himalayas. It lies in the state of Uttarakhand and begins and ends at the pilgrim town of Gangotri.

The trail snakes through the Greater Himalayas within the confines of Gangotri National Park. It is a moderate-difficult trek that can be attempted by beginners if you prepare well.

Gaumukh Tapovan is a safe trek to do.

Every year thousands of pilgrims hike to Gaumukh to witness the river Ganga at its source. Mind you, most of these people are not trekkers but devotees. They think of the trail as a pilgrimage rather than a trek. And yet manage to complete it without an organizer or a team.

Yet, it’s not an easy trek and is not to be taken lightly. Gaumukh Tapovan trek is rated as moderate-difficult and you need to be physically fit to complete this trek.

While doing so, there are several factors you must keep in mind to stay safe. The trek requires you to be alert and trek carefully. It’s important because the trek climbs to over 14,000 ft, classifying it as a high altitude trek.

To help you mentally prepare well for the trek we have broken down the safety concerns into three parts – terrain, altitude and weather.

Gaumukh tapovan starts from holy mountain town of Gangotri. The distance to tapovan from gangotri is approximately 22 kms. First day after starting from gangotri you can camp at chirbasa which is 9kms from gangotri or you can stay in bojhwasa which is 14 kms from gangotri. Bojhwasa will be a better option as the trail till bojhwasa is easy, with very gradual ascent and next day gaumukh and tapovan will be easier to approach. You will find GMVN guest house and aashram in bojhwasa to stay if you are not planning to camp. From bojhwasa you can cross the river with help of trolly there and go to gaumukh which is around 4kms and afterwards you can go to tapovan which is approx 3 kms ahead with some good ascent and difficult climb.
After reaching tapovan you can camp there or stay in aashrams. Tapovan will be the one of the most beautiful campsites you'll ever visit with peaks like shivling, meri and bhagirathi surrounding it.
Next day come directly to bojhwasa, stay there or camp overnight. Then from bojhwasa you can directly come to gangotri.
Jio and airel networks will be available in Gangotri.
