This trek is along the old pilgrim route from Gangotri to Kedarnath. From Gangotri one has to come down by Motor to Mala. The actual trek starts from Mala, after crossing the river Bhagirathi.

The trek is on level upto Sauri-Ki-Gad and from this point the climb to Belak is gradual. From Belak to Budha Kedar, it is downhill through the dense forests full of birds and wildlife. From Budha Kedar to Panwali, it is an uphill climb through terraced fields and picturesque villages. The enchanting view of the Garhwal Himalaya is very refreshing and compensates the effects of regular ascend and descend. The ' Bugyals' (Alpine Meadows) on this trek are most beautiful. 

Rest houses and Dharamshala are along the way. The trek should be well planned beforehand and services of guide are advisable.
GMVN arranges this trek.
