A trek with all colours of mother nature – Vibrant, Serene and Fascinating. The trail covers two of the five Kedar’sKalpeshwar and Rudranath situated in Uttrakhand. The Kalpeshwar Rudranath trail offers splendid views as it passes through thick woods, green valleys, lush green meadows, beautiful wild flower beds and high ridges.
The trail is well defined through village’s en-route with extremely charismatic views. One can easily get lost in mesmerizing views of the magnificent peaks of Nanda Devi, Trishul and Nanda Ghunti.The initial trail from Devgram to Bansi Narayan is strenuous vertical climb of around 1500 mtr.
However the strenuous vertical climb is rewarded by the grand campsite, surrounded in the clouds, over the colourful flower beds with Bird’s-eye view of lush green meadow and snow-capped Himalayan peaks in the front.From there on to Dumak is an easy trail down the valley passing through Kalgoat.
The trail from Dumak to the high meadows at Panar is demanding, with long, hard climbs, sometimes through leech infected zones especially during and immediately after monsoons. The trail further is easy and offers grand views of the Alpine meadows and deep gorges full of wild colourful flowers and heavenly hamlet. From the ridge between Panar and Rudranath one can see Alaknanda carving its way down to the plains, and the mistysilhouettes of the foothills.
