Hemkund Sahib was a last minute addition in our already chalked out Chardham Yatra itinerary & I'm so happy & grateful that we did it. If you stay in Govindghat the helipad is very close & you may take a pony ahead or just walk it up. But after you reach the top you will certainly be rejuvenated by the positive vibes of this most revered pilgrimage of Sikhs with a wonderful serene lake in its vicinity. Do not miss the Lokpal Laxman temple which is adjacent to this Gurudwara where Lord Laxman had meditated. This is the only temple in the whole of India which is dedicated to Lord Laxman alone. Not to be missed pilgrimage when you are on a Chardham Yatra regardless of your religion. The efforts for the climb are really worth the satisfaction you will achieve after visiting this Gurudwara. Very highly recommended for sure.

This place is heaven. A must recommebed shrine to visit. You can reach govindghat from haridwar from where yatra starts for Shri Hemkund Sahib. Take any bus going to Badrinath and deboard at govind dham. From there start early morning yatra and reach Govind dham ghagaria and take break. Next day complete rest of the 6 km trek to Shri Hemkund Sahib which os little tough. Don't forget to take a holy dip in the sarovar.

Hemkund Sahib and its glacier lake situated at a elevation of 4633 meters(13650 ft ) is surrounded by seven mountain peaks each mountain having a " Nishan Sahib" on its cliff. Hemkund Sahib Gurudwara is dedicated to the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh(1666-1708). During winter months from October to April Hemkund Sahib is inaccessible due to the frozen route and in May Sikh pilgrims gradually clear the trek pathway, a social service called "Kar Seva" in Sikhism.We hired Mules costing each of us Rs 2500 for the up/ down fare to Hemkund Sahib and back to Ghangaria .The mule trek to Hemkund Sahib began at 0745 and it was a steady uphill walk for the Mules on treacherous large stone stairs.Unlike the " Valley of flowers" trek route which is through forest pathways the " Hemkund Sahib" trek route is a 1,100m(3600ft) climb of 6 Km through a series of rock stairs, slippery and broken in parts .A trekker should be as sure footed as a mule walking up this mountain trek of large stone stairs.After a brief rest at the Dhabba began our ascent and passed alongside the glacier on the mountainside which I first mistook to be rough cemented concrete.
Finally at 0945 hrs we reached Hemkund Sahib Gurudwara situated on the peak of the mountain.On entering the precincts of the Gurudwara compound was given a scarf to cover my head .Went to the glacier lake and it's beauty against the backdrop of the Gurudwara and Glacier mountain's was indescribable in the bright hot sunshine.Pilgrim's were having a dip in the ice cold glacier lake .Tourists are allowed to take a dip and hence decided to immerse myself in ice cold water and the experience was totally different as not everyday can a person have a dip in a authentic glacier lake.Finally at 1100 hrs began our descent by mule and at 1245 hrs we reached " Pony/ Mule Taxi point"in Ghangaria and after paying the handler Rs 2500 and taking a photo with " Kamala" my mule we headed to our hotel.

The beauty of the Hemkund Sahib trek is that you access this pilgrimage site and the Valley of Flowers from the same base. Technically, once you get to Ghangaria, you can trek to Hemkund Sahib in one day. The same is with the Valley of Flowers.
In about 3 hours of trekking from Ghangaria, we reached the summit, to be greeted by a massive Gurudwara flanked by 7 towering peaks on 3 sides. Just behind the main building is a lake. Called the ‘Laxman kund’, it is fed by an underwater stream. We were greeted with sights of the faithful stripping to their undergarments and taking a dip in the freezing waters!
The gurudwara itself is a pretty large building. It’s floor is lined with warm deep carpets, blankets almost. After paying our respects, we headed to the langar hall, for a meal. The days menu was khichdi, which I had 6 bowls of! I don’t know if it was the exhaustion, the cold or the sheer beauty of where we were, but I haven’t had such delicious tasting khichdi in my life!
After eating our fill, we thanked the amused volunteers in the langar and headed back down. The trek back down was an easy 2.5 hour – long stroll, enjoying the beautiful weather and scenery.

My Hemkund Sahib Yatra with a local jatha in July was truly a remarkable experience.
Day 1 : Mumbai - Dehradoon - Srinagar :-
Yatris gathered at the Mumbai airport on the beautiful early morning of July pregnant with monsoon. Wearing the identical Tee shirts & patkas provided in the Travel Kit by the Jatha not only looked outstanding on the Yatris but also helpful to the Veers, performing distribution of breakfast kits, to identify these yatris amongst the general passengers at the waiting lounge of the Mumbai airport. The delicious breakfast served was just a start for the mouth watering food which was unfailingly served all along the yatra.
The flight to Dehradoon was full , occupied majorly by the yatris. The Jaikaras by the Sangat energised the emotions in the airplane's cabin, setting the tone for the seven day spiritual journey.
The logistics of the yatra was a reliable event due to dedicated Bus's / Seat's / Hotel room's numbers being handed over to yatris in advance. Greeted by mild rains on landing at Dehradoon airport, Yatris were quickly transported in waiting mini buses to a large banquet hall in Ranipokhari ,a distance of four kms from Dehradoon airport ,for lunch Langar Seva organised by the local jatha.
After Lunch ,melodious kirtan presentation & felicitation of sewadars ,Yatris commenced the onward travel of 100+ kms for an overnight stay at Hotel Chhahat / River Side Resort in Srinagar over looking the beautiful Alaknanda river.
The landscape during this uphill journey to Srinagar is both beautiful & enchanting, making one feel like floating in the monsoon clouds. The non stop sight & sound of the dancing river all along the journey is another event which remains etched in the memory.
Arriving in evening at Hotel Chhahat in Srinagar , yatris were served piping hot langar seva of dinner ,while kirtan followed by a lucky draw was parallely being conducted.
The atmosphere was full of joy, happiness and anticipation for the forward journey of the next day to Govind Ghat.
After a full tummy & tiredness of bus travel the well appointed airconditioned hotel rooms were a major relief & a welcome sight to the Yatris.
Day 2: Srinagar - Pipakkoti - Govind Ghat :-
The day started with an amazingly elaborate 5 am breakfast / Kirtan program at Hotel Chhahat , since Yatris had to reach Pipalkoti an uphill distance of 100+ kms for brunch.
At Pipalkoti brunch was mouth watering in addition to very clean toilet facilities available.
Thereafter by the grace of Waheguru Ji , onward journey of 50+ kms to Govind Ghat was completed by 2 pm or so due to absence of land slides ( a common occurrence on this stretch ) & clear open gate access at Joshimath.
Hotel Check in was smooth at Govind Ghat . Thereafter Yatris have a choice to visit the town of Badrinath ( 25 kms ) & be back by sunset or alternatively spend time in Govind Ghat , admiring the beauty of the striking alakhnanda river & the spiritualness at the Govind Ghat Gurudwara Sahib & there after night stay.
Day 3: Govind Ghat - Ghangaria ( Govind Dham ) :-
At 6.30 am after the Ardaas at the Govind Ghat Gurudwara Sahib , most of the Yatris start the onward journey to Govind Dham located in Ghangaria a distance of thirteen kms by foot.
Out of the thirteen kms the first four km stretch i.e. upto Pulna is a motorable road which can be covered by shared SUV's or by foot . Horses , Palkis can be hired at Pulna for the onward journey of eight kms to Govind Dham.
Yatris also have the option to fly from Govind Ghat upto Gobind Dham by a 2-3 minutes of helicopter ride. However helicopter service has weight limit of luggage & is not available during rains or fog which is quiet common feature.
All the Yatris reach Govind Dham by Lunch hour & check in at the dedicated Hotels.
Afternoon the day is spent at Govind Dham with kirtan, path & Langar at the Gurudwara Sahib & also enjoying , exploring the local landscape thereafter.
Langar seva of excellent dinner takes place in the hotel.
Day 4: Govind Dham - Hemkund Sahib Ji - Govind Dham / Govind Ghat :-
This is the most important day -To reach Hemkund Sahib Ji located at 15200 feet .Yatris start the journey from Gobind Dham between 5 to 6 am for a constantly delightful steep uphill walk of six kms .Oxygen levels are lower than normal at such heights which is the reason that everyone has to start the descend by 2 pm back to Govind Dham on same day.
There are Horses & Palkis available at Govind Dham for Hemkund Sahib Ji for Yatris who do not wish to walk up.
On arrival at Hemkund Sahib ji be prepared to be looking at the most beautiful sight on earth - Gurudwara Hemkund Sahib Ji at the edge of the enchanting Sarovar surrounded by seven Hills.
Celebrating their arrival with a dip in the super chilled waters of the sarovar , Yatris then get immersed in the melodious kirtan at Gurudwara Hemkund Sahib Ji followed by the much deserved delicious though simple langar & Tea.
After darshan , Yatris start the descent & reach Govind Dham by late afternoon for a small break & then
majority of Yatris start the onward journey for a night stay at Govind Ghat.
Yatris who stay back at Govind Dham have to leave early morning the next day for Govind Ghat.
Dinner & stay facilities are available at both Govind Dham & Govind Ghat as per Yatris real time location.
Day 5:Govind Dham / Govind Ghat - Srinagar
Yatris still at Govind Dham, start the journey to Govind Ghat at 5 in the morning to join the batch of Yatris already reached the previous evening , to eventually catch the Bus heading for return journey home.
After a small ,but very high on religious sentiments, Nagar Kirtan followed by Aardaas at Govind Ghat, all Yatris board the buses by 11 am . Lunch break enroute to Hotel Chhahat / River Side Resort ( Srinagar ) is at Pipalkoti.
Arrival at Hotel Chhahat / River Side Resort is early evening followed by lip smacking snacks , dinner & light entertainment.
Day 6: Srinagar - New Delhi
The day starts with a rich & impressive 5 am breakfast at Hotel Chhahat / River Side Resort. Lunch break enroute to Delhi is at astonishing Gurudwara Sahib at Rishikesh. Arrival at Bangla Sahib Gurudwara in Delhi is early evening.
This journey was an life altering experience which also earned me a spiritual , meaningful & some light hearted conversations with so many of Co Yatris.

No words can describe the feeling and beauty of this sacred place. When you trek 2 kms on icy glacier @ Sub zero temprature and reach Hemkund Sahib after a long trek ,took a dip in icy cold sarovar (Frozen Lake) ..it's simply the most unforgettable moment of your life. You can feel it's presence around you all thru your journey from Gobind ghat to Hemkund Sahib .
You should be fit enough to trek about 26-30 kms (12 kms is very steep) in 3 days ,with basic amenities and food.
Please do respect the sanctity of this place and protect the environment ..

We travelled from Delhi at the end of August arriving at Hemkund Sahib on 1 September. It was a challenging trip and tough. My suggestion is that it is best to do this trip before hitting your 40s. The altitude has a great affect on one's stamina. Although my aim was to walk the first 10K at least this was not possible due to Altitude Sickness. The surrounding area of the path is absolutely beautiful and this takes your mind of your ailments. We stopped overnight at Gobindham and set out at 6am in the morning to Hemkund Sahib Gurdwara. We went by mule and arrived there around 9ish. It started to rain midway, so make sure you are suitable dressed. I would also suggest that you come down walking and not on the mule. Coming down on the mule is very very hard and quite scary at some points when the mule walks to the edge of the path. So the advice is prepare yourselves, get fit (bearing in mind that the fittest of people can also get Altitude Sickness). Apparently you can get oxygen from the chemist at Gobind Dham.
We also found that as we were travelling in September (off peak) the mules etc were all half the price. Good luck to all those who are thinking of and attempting to do this yatra. It is definitely God's own Country, an amazing amazing place to visit and for most once in a lifetime journey.

Hi,
Lots of players... search the net - the rates vary... you can hire a swift for under 25 K for 7 days inclusive of all to Innova for rs. 35K for 7 days.. if you are going by an agent to book hotels - take their help like we did with BLUE POPPY.. they provide excellent service.

I am a solo traveller and wish to book a shared texi from Haridwar to Joshimath on 16th August morning. Can anyone help me with a number or other suggestions in this regard? Where can I find texi in Haridwar?

I might be late in answering this question, however, it might be helpful for others who read this:
Generally, there are no taxi bookings from Haridwar/Rishikesh, in case someone agrees to - it would be expensive than you think. Forget the online booking.
You can hire a bike (as you are a solo traveler) and explore the place a li'll better.

You can take any vehicle from Rishikesh till Gobindghat. Ahead of that you need to trek or take a pony.
The Sumos or Bolero that run from Rishikesh charge per seat or you can book an entire one for yourself by paying the equivalent amount. If you opt for another car, you need to pay for the return journey as well or the waiting period, if you ask the taxi to wait for you in Gobindghat.
