When it comes to winter trekking, the Kedarkantha trek is a go to trek as it features new powder-soft sparkling snow, it is moderately difficult and a straight forward trek. It’s a year-round trek, but it’s particularly well-known and common in the winter. It is the best choice for winter trekking for trekkers who want to combine adventure with a straightforward approach. It is one of Uttarakhand’s most famous treks and is full of natural wonders. This trek is mythologically significant, Lord Shiva’s alias name is Kedar, and the word Kantha means throat. There are several stories about it. Some people believe the rumors, while others do not, but one thing is certain: going on this trek will bring you inner peace.
The Kedarkantha trek leads to the Kedarkantha Peak, which stands at an altitude of 12,500 feet. The trek takes place in Uttarakhand’s Uttarakashi district’s Western Garhwal. During the summer months of April to June, the temperature at Kedarkantha reaches 20 degrees. In the winter, however, the weather blankets the mountains in pristine white snow, making it an exciting destination for skiing or even trekking!
From November to February, the temperature will drop to -10 degrees, with the weather staying cold.
The Govind Ballabh Pant National Park, also known as Govind National Park, is where this trek takes place. This national park serves as a natural preserve for endangered Himalayan animals such as the snow leopard, Golden Eagle, Brown Bear, Moschus, Western Tragopan, and others.
