Kedarkantha Trek starts at Dehradun (gateway to Sankri & the Kedarkantha trail, Uttarakhand), not in Jaipur — so the plan below adds the travel legs, the time they take, and what they cost. From Jaipur you can leave the evening before and reach Dehradun on the morning the trip starts. Experience India’s most celebrated winter and alpine summit trek. Ascend through dense pine and oak forests, camp beside the frozen Juda Ka Talab lake, and stand on the 12,500 ft summit with an unobstructed 360-degree vista of the Garhwal Himalayas including Swargarohini, Black P.
