गा, जिसे अक्सर भारत में देवी के रूप में पूजा जाता है, शुद्धता और आध्यात्मिकता का प्रतीक है और यह उन लाखों भारतीयों के लिए जीवन रेखा का काम करती है जो इसके किनारे रहते हैं और अपनी दैनिक जरूरतों के लिए इस पर निर्भर हैं। गोमुख, गंगोत्री ग्लेशियर में 3889 मीटर की ऊँचाई पर स्थित एक स्थान गंगा नदी का जन्म स्रोत है। गंगा के जन्म स्रोत को देखना हमेशा लोगों के लिए एक सुनहरा अवसर रहा है और गोमुख में डुबकी लगाने के दौरान उनकी आँखों में चमक कभी भी दस लाख डॉलर से कम नहीं होती है। गोमुख का मतलब है गाय का मुँह। मैंने एक तीर्थयात्री से पूछा, जो मेरे पास खड़ा था और पानी में डूबे लोगों को निहार रहा था। ऋषियों ने इसे 'गोमुख' कहा था, क्योंकि प्राचीन काल में यह संभवतः गाय के मुख जैसा प्रतीत होता था।

Opposite the triple-peaked Bhagirathi massif, and at the very foot of the once regarded Indian Matterhorn, Mt. Shivling, the location of the trek lends as much to its popularity as does the pure beauty of the expanse of the lush green meadows of Tapovan and the pure magic and energy of Gomukh.
Gomukh Tapovan trek is not just a trek, it is a journey. It is a journey not only for its sacredness and travel through the holy land filled with stories on every corner, but also because it is the source of Ganga- the ferocious river which is on a 2700km long journey of its own to nourish an entire nation with its raw power and sacred energy. Gomukh is regarded as the mouth of this powerful river and the place where it starts its all-encompassing voyage. Tapovan has a significance of its own. With the magnetic energy of the place at the foot of some of the most reverential and indomitable mountains of the Garhwal range, each of which hold a special place in our age-old mythology, remains a place of choice for the spiritual yogis to go into long-term meditation despite the harsh conditions of the altitude. It also forms the base camp for some of the most difficult climbs in Garhwal Range of Himalayas like Mt. Shivling and Mt. Kedar Dome.
Starting from the holy mountain town of Gangotri, the trail for this trek is a stunning assortment of landscapes from the lush forests of Chirbasa to massive open grounds of Tapovan.
Going into the Greater Himalayas, the trek snakes through the confines of Gangotri National Park and takes you to a maximum altitude of 4,463M to experience some of the most heart- stopping beauty and puts you right in front of the full face of Shivling and the Bhagirathi sisters. You don’t just see the peaks but experience the full force of these mountains as you see them rise from toe to head in an unobstructed and nothing short of an inspiring view. What’s even better is that it is an uncrowded and minimally explored trail which reserves its beauty only for a few who make it there.
