Many pilgrims wish to take a dip in the icy waters at Gaumukh. If you do this as part of your Gangotri with Gaumukh package, be extremely careful of the temperature and the current. A quick sprinkle of water is often enough and much safer. Most importantly, keep the area pristine. Avoid leaving clothes or offerings in the water. The glacier is a sensitive zone, and our spiritual practices should help protect it, ensuring the \"Holy Ganga\" stays clean from its very first mile.
