Gangotri Group

• Chaukhamba. A four-summitted massif; Chaukhamba I,, is the highest peak in the group.
• Kedarnath,, the highest peak on the southwest side of the glacier
• Thalay Sagar,, a steep rock spire, and perhaps the most difficult summit to attain in the entire group.
• Shivling,, another steep rock peak, with two summits, and the most striking as viewed from Gaumukh, the pilgrimage site at the mouth of the glacier. A symbol of the god Shiva, it is the most revered peak in the group.
• Meru,, lies between Thalay Sagar and Shivling, and has some highly challenging routes, only recently ascended despite multiple attempts by the world's best climbers.
• Bhagirathi I: ; II: ; III: ], peaks with moderate routes on the back sides, but huge steep-to-overhanging cliffs on the side facing the glacier. Bhagirathi III, in particular, has seen some of the most extreme rock climbing in the Himalaya.
