Detailed Overview

Kedarkantha Peak, situated in the mountains, is a beautiful ridge peak easily accessible any time of the year. The summit lies at an altitude of 3850 m. There, you will be greeted with views of peaks like Swargarohini, Banderpooch, Black Peak, and Ranglana. For Kedarkantha, the summit is not the only thing that is rewarding. The trail goes through Govind National Park, where you will get ample time to soak in the flora and fauna of this protected area. Kedarkantha is an all-season trek. But if you are the one who likes to play in the snow, then winter will be your best option.
