Auden's Col Trek - A Thrilling Himalayan Expedition Linking Gangotri and Kedarnath Valleys

The Auden’s Col Trek is one of the most challenging and rewarding high-altitude treks in the Indian Himalayas, sitting at an elevation of about 18,000 feet. This dramatic mountain pass connects the Gangotri Valley with the Kedarnath Valley, offering trekkers an adrenaline-filled journey across glaciers, moraines, rocky ridges, and deep snowfields. Along the route, one is greeted with grand views of towering peaks like Jogin, Gangotri, Kedar Dome, and Rudragaira. Known for its difficulty, Auden’s Col demands high levels of fitness, mountaineering skills, and experience, but the rewards are unparalleled remote landscapes, pristine campsites, and the thrill of traversing one of the least-explored trails in Uttarakhand. It is not just a trek, but an expedition that tests endurance and gifts memories of untouched Himalayan wilderness.
