The Gomukh Tapovan trek is relatively easy.
Gomukh is the end of the Gangotri glacier and hence the source of the divine river Ganges. Gomukh means a cows mouth. It is believed that the snout looked like a cow's mouth in the past. Most people feel blessed by the lord if they get to visit the river Ganges. Even if you happen to be an atheist, you must have a look at the snout and witness the mighty nature. From this point onwards the trail gets steeper and rockier. The boulders and the rock moraines on the glacier play an essential role in making this climb difficult, but the presence of these rocks and boulders also means that there would be no requirement and burden of the extra weight of technical equipments. At most, trekking could be used to ease the climb. The final trek to Tapovan is rocky terrain, once you are on the other side of the terrain you will be pleased to be in the best -known meadows which also offer you a closer look of the magnificent Mount Shivling. Tapovan is also famous for the Sadhus, the Indian Hindi saints who come here for meditation. It is also the base camp for the expeditions going to Mt. Shivling. It offers a direct and closer look of Mt. Shivling which is considered one of the most sacred and beautiful mountain. Other than this Mt. Meru and Bhagirathi peaks are also worth having a look at. After the gruelling trek, Tapovan serves as a perfect place for solitude. Flora and fauna of this place make it more beautiful.
