Gaumukh: Trekking to the Massive Glacier Source of the Ganges

Skip the crowds and commit to the 18km trek from Gangotri to witness the snout of the Gangotri Glacier. You definitely need a pre-booked forest permit to pass the checkpoint at Bhojbasa. It is rugged, high-altitude terrain, so prep your lungs and carry layers. Spend at least two days to acclimate or you will suffer from altitude sickness. The blue ice shards and stark landscape are raw, real, and totally worth the grueling hike.
