Roopkund
Trek
| Situated at a height of 5029 mts.
in the lap of Trisul Massif. This area is usually called the 'Mystery Lake',
since human skeletons and remains of horses from the paleolithic age were
found here. The lake is surrounded by rock-strewn glaciers and snow clad
peaks. The starting point of the trek is Tharali, easily approached by
motor from Rishikesh. Roopkund can also be reached from Ghat, connected
by a motorable road with Nandprayag situated on the main highway to Badrinath.
The route passes through lush green grassy land and conifer forests clinging
into the slopes of hills. The route passes thereafter winds its way along
the Pindar river. Then to round off this trek, one can approach Homekund
via Shail Samudra glacier and then move on to Ghat or Nandprayag. For the
round trek, services of a guide are advisable. |
