The Gaumukh trek begins from Gangotri. Gaumukh or Gomukh means Cow's Mouth. This is the place where Bhagirathi river originates from. I stared Gaumukh trek with my friends named Devanshu Sharma and Brijendra Chaudhary at 8 in the morning from Gangotri Dham. This yatra takes you through dense forests, across beautiful rivers & rocky paths. This trek is 18 kms from Gangotri & takes you through enchanting Himalayan ranges & diverse flora and fauna.

Once you start you trek from the town of Gangotri, first you reach Chirbasa after trekking for 9 kilometers. Chirbasa is a main resting point on this trek. 4 kilometers from Chirbasa is a place called Bhojbasa. On your Gaumukh trek first night you stay in Bhojbasa. Gaumukh is 5kms from Bhobasa for which you have to cross Bhagirathi river by a trolley.

To visit Gaumukh, you need to obtain permits from Forest Department. Gaumukh is an altitude of 13,123 feet. The weather in Gaumukh can be harsh. You might face extremely cold temperatures even during the summer.
