Trishul I Peak, Uttarakhand

Trishul I Peak, Uttarakhand

Aug 19, 2022

The visually spectacular Trishul Massif that resembles the Trident of Lord Shiva is said to be the first peak climbed in the Garhwal Himalayas. And today this majestic mountain is amongst the most preferred peak climbing expeditions in Garhwal. Trishul I is the tallest peak amongst the unique trident and is 7145 m high. It is also one of the challenging summit bids as the mountaineers make slow progress due to high wind speed and poor snow/ice conditions. The climb to Trishul I begin from Chandinaya Ghat, which is its base camp, and from there an arduous ascend in the mountain starts via Ronti Gad Glacier which is at a height of about 5020 m. The best time to attempt a summit bid on this peak is between July and September.

The three Himalayan mountain peaks of western Kumaun as a whole form the Trishul peak. Having a height of 7120m, the Trishul group forms the southwest corner of the ring of peaks that enclose Nanda Devi Sanctuary. In 1907, the main peak - Trisul I - became the first peak over 7,000m to have ever been climbed by someone. The peak can be best viewed from Kausani or during the Roopkund Trek.
