Kalindi Pass Trek

This trek is among the most demanding and adventurous journeys in India. It traces the Holi River Ganga, linking its two main branches, the Bhagirathi and the Alaknanda, in a single itinerary.

The adventure begins in Gangotri, along the Bhagirathi River, and gradually follows the current uphill to the Gaumukh Glacier. From there, the route becomes even more spectacular as it ventures deeper into the mountains and ascends to 5,940 m at Kalindi Pass. After crossing the pass, the trail descends toward Gastoli and Badrinath, ending beside the Alaknanda River.

It is an ideal choice for experienced trekkers looking to test their limits and discover a remote route that is far from easy access. Expect an unforgettable experience filled with thrills.
