We will arrive at the lake for lunch and spend the afternoon in the riveting natural surroundings. A rewarding 360-degree view of the Himalayan ranges and especially the towering Chaukhamba peak that feels at arm’s length and the reflection of the peaks in the clear waters of the lake make this trek well worth the effort and then we head back to Sari. From here we drive back to the lodge and make a small en route to visit the Ukhimath temple. This beautiful temple is the winter seat of the Kedarnath deity and is an important stop on the Char Dham yatra. At the lodge, we reminisce about the day and then get back to our rooms for a well-earned night’s rest. Overnight in lodge.
