Starting from gangotri its 18kms.. if you want so it can be easily covered in one day but u can also stay in chirbhasa which is 4kms from gangotri(just incase you are coming out of any other trek) .. (Read More). keep your tents and food ready because you wouldn't find any resturants or hotels there.. even your phone will not work.. make sure u know the bitter truths of going into a glaciers.. so be ready for amazing experience.. the beginners may go with NIMS based in Uttarkashi.. they are the best..

Gaumukh can be done easily even without trek organizers. It takes 3 days from Gangotri town and back. From Uttarkashi travel to Gangotri town via public cabs or bus. Stay the night here in a hotel a (Read More)nd then head out early morning to reach Bhojwasa before sun-down. There is a fixed trail and the trek is quite easy. Bhojwasa has a dharamshala that is run as a non-profit by a sadhu. You pay around 300 for bed and breakfast. Next morning you head out of Bhojwasa to Gaumukh and reach by noon. You then come back to Bhojwasa by evening and can stay here again for the night and leave the next day for Gangotri town. It can also be done in 2 days if you are quick and cover the distance back from Gaumukh to Gangotri in a single day.
