Satopanth

30. August – 28. September 2013 / 30 days

Leitung: offen

The Garhwal-Himalaya offers a variety of natural beauties. Here, the Ganges, holy river of India, has its source. During the short walk-in, we will witness the awe of the pilgrims and the grandeur of the mountains, first and foremost the mighty Satopanth, which we will climb from the north. We will enjoy the view on one of the most beautiful massifs of the Himalaya, which is not frequently visited. The first ascent of the impressive mountain was made by a Swiss expedition team, led by the famous mountaineers André Roch and Alexander Graven.

  • The Satopanth is a remarkably distinct 7000er in he outmost corner of North India.
  • The mountain is situated in one of the most beautiful regions of the Himalaya and was first ascended by a Swiss expedition team.
  • The journey-in is a special experience: It leads to the source of the Ganges, one of the most important pilgrim sites in the Himalaya.
