Ghangaria Hotels and Accommodation
Small village Ghangaria, often spelled Ghanghariya or Govind Dham, is situated in Uttarakhand's Chamoli district. It serves as the starting point for the trip to Hemkund Sahib, a significant Sikh pilgrimage site, and the Valley of Flowers National Park. The retreat of Ghangaria from the the modern world is among its most striking features. The only way to get to this undiscovered gem without a road is on foot via a beautiful hiking trail. When you set out on this excursion, you leave behind the bustle and distractions of city life and immerse yourself in the untamed and unadulterated beauty of the natural world.
From important cities in Uttarakhand including Rishikesh. Haridwar, and Dehradun, Govindghat is easily accessible by bus or private cab. Rishikesh to Govindghat may be reached by regular bus; the trip takes about 10 to 11 hours. As an alternative, you might take a taxi or drive your own car to Govindghat. The trek to Ghangaria begins from Govindghat. The track is clearly marked and the distance is roughly 13 kilometers. You have the option of carrying your stuff yourself or by hiring a mule or a porter. Depending on your pace and degree of fitness, the trek typically lasts 4-6 hours.
There are a few guesthouses and lodges in Ghangaria that offer simple lodging amenities including tidy rooms, comfortable beds, and attached or shared bathrooms. The needs of hikers and pilgrims are met by these very basic accommodations. Temporary tented camps are constructed up in Ghangaria to house hikers during the busiest hiking season. These campgrounds provide simple tents with sleeping arrangements and shared restrooms. It's vital to remember that due to Ghangaria's distant location and seasonal nature, the amenities and services offered at these hotels may be modest. Meals may be simple and vegetarian, with limited access to electricity and hot water.
Ghangaria is the base camp for the pilgrims of Hemkund Sahib and the tourist of Valley of Flowers. At present, there are around 20-30 private hotels with few camps and a GMVN rest house, a forest rest house and a big Gurudwara which in total can provide accommodation for 5000 people.
As the Ghangaria is around 13 kms from the road and without regular electricity, it is difficult to provide luxury accommodation. The hotels in Ghangaria offers basic accommodation with basic facilities.
