It is the source of "Kedar Ganga" and this is Lord Shiva's contribution to the Bhagirathi River, so it is also known as "Shiva's Lake". Mount Thalay Sagar, Mount Meru, Mount Bhrigupanth; the snowfall above them feeds the Kedar Tal. The trek starts from the holy city of Gangotri, which is famous for pilgrimages and is one of the Char Dhams.
The trek to Kedartal varies from moderate to difficult as the trail takes you through steep climbs and landslide-prone areas, the trek to this exciting lake is an adventurous one. It takes a lot of energy to get there, but it's worth all your efforts because no other feeling can match the pleasure of getting there.
This place was found by shepherds and not everyone can go on this trek, it is not for beginners at all; people with previous trekking experience must go for the experience of this exciting trail. The close-up views of the mountains from here are mesmerising and mostly missing from many treks.
