The Gangotri Group of mountains is a subdivision of the Garhwal Himalaya in the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand. It rings the Gangotri Glacier, and contains peaks that are notable either for their religious significance to Hindus, for their difficult climbing routes, or both. Climbs on three of the peaks (Thalay Sagar, Shivling, and Meru) have resulted in the awarding of the prestigious (but controversial) climbing award, the Piolet d'Or.

A symmetrical pyramid peak seen between White Peak and Gangotri range is Mt. Srikanta (20,121 feet). Very little is known about this peak. This peak provides technical challenges for mountaineers owing to its remoteness, difficult camping locations, steep ice-wall and narrow summit ridge covered by cornice.
