Trekking Overview
Kheer Ganga (3,050 meters) lies at the inside end of Parvati Valley and is the last inhabited outpost while migrating towards the majestic Pin-Parvati Pass. Kheerganga's all-inclusive, panoramic skies and external pristine shrub are a much-needed gladness to the trekker's eyes and particularly their burned-out legs.
It is a deeply devotional venue boasting a sacred hot water spring, a small shrine of Lord Shiva, and dedicated public shower vessels. It composes a rare, blissful junction for any mountain trekker to soap and soak in hot spring water when everything in the surrounding valley is roofed by the winter blizzard.
Lord Shiva's Hermitage: Mythological beliefs state that Lord Kartikeya, the son of Lord Shiva, meditated here for thousands of years. The hot waters are rich in organic sulphur, known widely for their spiritual healing qualities and physical relief for weary travelers.
