“In the Silence of the Peaks, Feel the Shabad”
Here are some interesting facts about the Hemkund Sahib that will make your journey even more exciting!
- One of the Highest Gurudwaras in the World : Hemkund Sahib is located at an altitude of 4,632 meters (15,197 ft), making it one of the highest pilgrimage sites dedicated to Guru Gobind Singh Ji.
- The Only Gurudwara Dedicated to Guru Gobind Singh Ji : This is the only Gurudwara in the world built in honor of the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji.
- The Name “Hemkund” Means “Lake of Snow” : The sacred lake next to the shrine is called Hemkund, meaning “Snow Bowl”, because it is surrounded by seven snow-covered peaks known as Hemkund Parbat.
- Guru Gobind Singh Ji Meditated Here : According to Sikh scriptures, Guru Gobind Singh Ji is believed to have meditated for years at this exact location in his previous life.
- No Motorable Road : You Must Trek :There is no direct road to Hemkund Sahib. Travelers must trek 6 km from Ghangaria, making the journey a mix of adventure and devotion.
- The Lake Freezes Completely for 6–7 Months : Due to extremely cold temperatures, Hemkund Lake stays frozen nearly half the year, and the Gurudwara opens only from May/June to October.
- Brahma Kamal Blooms Here : The region around Hemkund Sahib is home to the rare and sacred Brahma Kamal, the state flower of Uttarakhand, which blooms only at high altitudes.
- Architecture Inspired by a Himalayan Lotus : The Gurudwara’s unique octagonal structure is inspired by the shape of a lotus, symbolizing purity.
Volunteers Serve in Extreme Conditions : Thousands of Sikh volunteers (Sevaks) work here daily, despite the harsh weather, low oxygen, and high altitude — a true symbol of selfless seva.
