Mount Bhagirathi Peaks are 3 stunning Himalayan mountains standing side by side in a snowy massif. Bhagirathi peaks are some of the world’s tallest and most revered mountain peaks in Uttarakhand India. At an intimidating elevation of Bhagirathi I (6,856 M), Bhagirathi II (6,512 M) and Bhagirathi III (6,454 M) offer the perfect adventure in the Garhwal Himalayas. The challenging nature of this expedition will provide you with a hefty dose of adrenaline with numerous breathtaking landscapes. Indian mountaineering company, Kahlur Adventures has curated the entire plan of this trek to keep you immersed in the cultural and adventurous experience in the mountains of India.
On the Mount Bhagirathi II expedition, you will climb one of the world’s highest and most rigorous yet gratifying peaks. Bhagirathi II is considered a holy mountain by Hindu pilgrims and has many temples and shrines on the top. Bhagirathi Peak’s climb is only suitable for experienced mountaineers as well as new mountaineers as it is a somewhat less technical peak. But to climb Mt Bhagirathi, you need proper knowledge of mountaineering equipment and reasonable experience in high-altitude climbing. If you are looking to upgrade your skills and get a taste of climbing above 6000 M peak in India, this expedition is just the right fit for you.
Climbing the mountains of Uttarakhand offers a fresh take on trekking as you get to traverse the raw and rugged beauty of this region. The weather conditions at this elevation can be unpredictable adding to the already tough climbing expedition. At Kahlur Adventures, we have a team of seasoned trek leaders and mountaineers who know all the Garhwal mountain peaks as the back of their hands. The best time to embark on the Mt Bhagirathi II expedition is in May, June and September. Successfully summiting Mount Bhagirathi II is an unmatched accolade which not many mountaineers can claim and the natural beauty on this trek keeps you motivated throughout the expedition.
