said that Lord Shiva meditated here and the
Pandavas used to visit this peak. Devotees of
Lord Shiva visit at the top of the mountain where
there is a small shrine of Lord Shiva. Devotees
trek to the peak during the main pilgrimage
season of July and August.Shrikhand
Mahadev is actually a pilgrimage place for
Hindus. Shrikhand Mahadev is considered to be
the abode of Lord Shiva. So it is a place of great
attraction for the religious people as well as for
climbers -Shrikhand Mahadev Peak Tour. A
few glaciers also have to be crossed before
reaching the majestic peak of Shrikhand,
where pilgrims perform puja. The view
from 5155 meters is simply splendid — one
literally feels on the top of the world. The
surrounding snow-covered peaks and
mountains add to the grandeur. One cannot
stay on the top for a long time as the winds
there are very strong and bone-
chilling. ShriKhand Kailash is situated at
16900 feet above sea level. It is usually
undertaken to coincide with the Ashada
