This gurgling streamlet gushing out from the Trikutta range flows just below Katra.Starting from Katra and passing through the Dharshani Darwaza, one has to get down an escarpment for about half a mile and cross Bal-Ganga over a bridge. Actually it is from this bridge that the stiff ascent on the Trikutta range starts.

Bal Ganga is considered a holy stream and many devotees consider it a must to have purificatory bath in it before starting on the ascent. Many shops have of late sprung up here, which serve light food or essences and other commodities necessary for orisons in the holy cave.From here one can either follow the pony path which is comparatively longer but easy or if hardy one can take to the old foot-track which is stiff but shorter.
