Mt Trishul I Expedition 7120M - The Miraculous Expedition to Mount Trishul in Uttarakhand

 

Mount Trishul expedition:- The picturesque landscape of the Gharwal region is home to many famous Himalayan peaks that attracted many mountaineers over the years and Mount Trishul is one of them. Standing high with an altitude of 7120 m, Trishul is a group of three peaks, Trishul I, Trishul II, and Trishul III run north to south where Trishul I is the highest with 7120 m, then 6690 m and 6007  m respectively. These three peaks together form the shape of a trident that is why it is named after the trident/Trishul of Lord Shiva in Hindi.

Located in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand, the climbing expedition to Mt Trishul is quite tough that needs technical skill and knowledge but breathtakingly beautiful. Every year many trekking enthusiasts attempt to climb this peak. All of them have prior experiences of 6000 m and above peaks. Usually, people consider July, August, and September as the best time period to trek on this route. But during that time also prefer to check the weather forecast in advance as the heart-warming view from the summit should not be missed.

The trek to this alluring peak starts from Sutol village which can be reached via car/taxi from Rishikesh. If your trek is booked with Shikhar Travels then the itinerary will include every transport and stay right from the arrival in Delhi till the departure. The initial 5 days trek will be targeted to reach the base camp passing Tatara village, Latakopri, and Homkund. These places will have pre-set Shikhar camps by the team of overnight stays along with the meals.

The trek to Mount Trishul Peak is a favorite among nature lovers as the trek passes through beautiful meadows that are surrounded by high snow-covered mountains. There will be water streams to cross and majorly there will be possible chances of witnessing unique Himalayan wildlife especially musk deer. It is a fascinating experience that one can ever have.

After reaching base camp at Homkund, trekkers prefer to keep days for acclimatization as it is the most important thing to do. Here team leaders usually add small hikes to nearby high places and some technical practices like using tools or guiding of emergency situations. The trail goes from tough to tougher as the ascending trail shifts from the loose rocky surface to the glacier to the snow trail which is quite difficult to walk. These coming days after the acclimatization, the group will move forward to the ABC (Advanced Base Camp) then gradually further to Camp 1 site setting up the ropes and moping the direction and likewise for camp 2.

Finally, the day comes for the last climb to the summit for the height of 7120 m. The trail might look easy slope to climb but it’s not, rather it is much tiring as one needs to conserve energy while moving up. The air is pretty cold and strong here and clouds keep moving around. Here you can see the spectacular view of Himalayan ranges where most of them will be at a lower altitude than yours. With the help of ropes, anchors, and crampons you’ll move ahead from the west ridge. The wind here is so strong that it carries snow with it as it does during storms. But, lastly reaching at the top of the summit will give immense satisfaction. Peaks like Nanda Ghunti, Mrigthuni, and a wide range of Himalayas offer an impeccable view from this height.

After this successful attempt, it will be time to head back to the camps. Gradually with proper rest, the group will head to camps then over the days to ABC and then base camp. As ascend on this trail is difficult to descend is also equally difficult. But once you reach base camp then reaching Latakopri and Sutol Village will be easy and less time-consuming. The transport at the village will be arranged by Shikhar Travels which will further take you to your departure destination.

Travels (#Updated 2021 ) How to Travel Safely in India 2021 (COVID Time)

 

The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 has changed the world upside down. There has been a ‘new normal’ in 2021 since a majority of people started going back to their previous routines. This new lifestyle includes many precautions, care and some rules like social distancing, night curfew and most importantly mask. The Indian government has taken and implemented all possible rules especially when it came to travelling.

Initially, in 2020, travelling was not allowed at all but gradually in a later year, people restarted their life, leisure travelling also started. The airlines, railways and hotels all have their safety guidelines for travellers but there are many safety measures that the travellers also have to take. Though some people are still waiting for the vaccine things don’t happen overnight. So, now people who are travelling have to take all possible precautions, before and after travel. Like the ones mentioned below:

safely travel during the covid-19

Before Travel:

  1. Check the COVID Rate: Whichever is your destination you must check the current COVID rate of that particular city or town. If the place has less or no impact at all then you can at least roam around and refresh your mind from lockdown of past months.
  2. Look for Safe Mode of Transport: You can choose to fly or drive as per your chose destination. Though absolute safety measures are being taken by the airlines and railways if the destination can be covered through road then you must hire or drive a personal car. In this case, at least the safety will be in your own hand.
  3. Choose a safe place to stay: A holiday is majorly about a safe and relaxing stay which has just a perfect mattress to sleep and a wonderful balcony view. But in COVID times we need a safe and hygienic place so just look for the best one.
  4. Plan with travel agents: If you are looking for an assured safety throughout the vacation without any hassle then you must plan your trip with travel agents. It is their duty to provide you with the best and safest options whether it is for stay, transport or anything.
SAFE AIR TRAVELS IN IND WITH SHIKHAR TRAVELS

During Travel:

  • Wash Hands or Sanitize: The most basic and easiest measure one can take is keeping the hands clean while travelling. This has been said even for any kind of problem that hands are the foremost carrier of any kind of virus. So, carry a sanitizer or paper-soap throughout the journey.
  • Social Distancing: If you are travelling through plane or train then this is definitely for you. In this situation, we don’t have any idea about the person standing next to in queue whether he is infected or not so better to keep 2 meters distance and stay safe.
  • Watch-out while sneezing or coughing: Another habit that one must adapt in life is to cover up while sneezing and coughing. The microdroplets are the ones that carry the virus and can spread the virus. It is not that you have it but why not to take the habit forever just for hygiene.
  • Carry your own: During travel, there are many things that are required like soaps, tissues, water and special food. At this time, try to take packed food or home-cooked food as it will save you from random sittings and crowded area.
Sanitize your Area

After Travel:

  • Sanitize your belongings: After the long and exciting vacation try to sanitize all your things as a virus can come in any form on anything so why to take a risk!
  • Isolation: Last but most important, if you have an elderly family member or young children at home then prefer distance from them at least for a week. As your vacations should have all great memories.

Chardham Yatra Tour - A Lifetime Experience

 

Chardham Tour – A Journey towards tranquillity and peace is the most supreme journey ever.

If you ever want to slacken your mind do pay heed to the light and voice that is within you and the wonder is, it will bring you closer to God every moment and every second.

If we are a traveler or someone bound with 9 to 6 jobs, if we are holding a business or serving the country we should never forget our roots our ideology and our spirituality, let me take you to the wonder of “Char Dham Yatra” an experience that will always be close to your heart and soul.

Let’s begin the chapter with a deep dive into the history of our Char Dham which includes Badrinath (North), Dwarka (West), Jagannath Puri (East), and Rameshwaram (South). To let you apprise more about its history – the formation of this holy pilgrimage circuit is credited to one of the greatest philosophers Adi Sankara being famed as Shankaracharya.

We will aid you with all these Four Abodes in brief serially. Hope we let you have a virtual journey hereby: Chardham Yatra Package

BADRINATH :

Badrinath Temple lies in Badrinath town in Chamoli district which is situated in Uttarakhand, this town Badrinath attains its name from the state Badrinath itself. It is situated alongside a headstream of the Holy Ganges. Amidst the cold breeze and shivering wind we are blessed to have Tapt Kund a hot spring on the bank of Alaknanda, not only we can shred away cool breeze but also it’s considered holy to take a dip inside. The blessings of Badrinath has been really strong and prevalent for ages.

Badrinath Temple
Badrinath Temple

It is believed that Shankar discovered a black stone image of Lord Badrinarayan made of Saligram stone in the Alaknanda River and he enshrined it in the cave new Tapt Kund but as time escaped the King of Garhwal moved the Holy Murti to the present Temple.

Thousands of devotees keep coming to the temple every year to get the blessings and find their inner peace, they witness the serenity and blessings in air around Holy Badrinath Temple.

DWARKA:

Dwarka temple is devoted to Lord Krishna. The 2.25 feet heighted idol of Lord Krishna appears so endearing that the devotees gets their heart and soul dissolved at the very moment they are there, the temple and the place has 2500 years old history to disclose to it’s devotees. It is believed that after leaving Mathura Lord Krishna established his Kingdom in Dwarka on the banks of River Gomti. And his essence since then is so much dissolved in the air that people till now can feel his presence and it is inescapable for them to worship and bow their head down before Lord Krishna. 

Dwarakadhisa Temple
Dwarakadhisa Temple

It is said and believed that after Lord Krishna left the earth, the city of Dwarka got submerged in the sea and that the city was rebuilt over more than 6 times. Isn’t it less than a wonder in itself, these sacred stories are so much alluring that no one can halt the thought of visiting such a sacred place.

It’s a hope and desire of every spiritual heart to pay heed to this place once in their lifetime.

JAGANNATH PURI

The moment we hear about Jagannath Puri our mind stretches to the famous Jagannath Yatra which is the annual Rath Yatra (Chariot Festive) in which we have three principal deities which are heavily ornamented and pulled on huge beautifully decorated cars.

Jagannath Temple
Jagannath Temple

Shree Jagannath Temple is dedicated to Jagannath, a form of Lord Vishnu. One thing which most of the devotees find remarkable is that the idol of Jagannath is made up of wood and it ceremoniously gets replaced every 12 or 19 years by the exact replica, so no stone no metal it’s the wood in its purest form!
To pen down about its location, it is situated in Puri which is a state in Odisha on the eastern coast of India.

RAMESHWARAM

Rameshwaram temple is dedicated to God Shiva. It is one of the twelve jyotirlinga temples thus here God Shiva is worshipped in the form of jyotirlinga which means “pillar of light”. What makes the temple mark it’s different is that it has the longest corridor among all Hindi Temples in India.

Rameshwaram temple
Rameshwaram temple

As per the ancient Hindu Scriptures (the Puranas),  Lord Rama along with his wife Sita and younger brother Laxman worshipped the lingam here, lingam is an iconic symbol of Shiva. This worship was offered upon the advice of sages to expiate the sin of Brahmahatya incurred while killing of the Brahmin Ravana. That’s how remarkable and astonishing the chronicle of the temple is!

Rameshwaram temple is situated in Tamil Nadu, it is on Pamban Island separated from mainland India by the Pambal channel.

The Recognition for these Four Abodes is never-ending, there is an unfaltering anecdote about them, our belief will always be persistent and our approbation towards them will keep on growing and rising.

The words, the stories or the expressions are not enough, to find out the glory of these ancient temples and the beautiful abode of God one must visit these places, you will be touched with the sublime of the aura of these places! There is something that will make you feel more relieved, more sparkling, and much more spirited.. It is going to be a true blessing and a lifetime experience!!!

It has entrancing grand excellence that will captivate each nature darling. The trek itself is lovely to the point that both the spots, Gaumukh and Tapovan are really unique.

It is a significant beautiful spot that one should encounter once in a lifetime. Gaumukh trek package


Gaumukh Tapovan Trek, Situated in Gharwal locale in Uttarkashi, Gaumukh-Tapovan has solid strict confidence in the Hindu religion. The trek in this district of Uttarkashi is otherwise called Gangotri Dham where individuals from better places visit to observe the heavenly Gangotri Glacier which is quite known for the beginning of the sacred stream Ganga.
