It is among the mountains of India that is popular for expeditions and trekkers.[3] Gori Chen provided for training to the 19 Kumaon before its deployment in Siachen in the 1980s.[4] Older expeditions passing Gori Chen include the Bailey–Morshead exploration in 1913 and Bill Tilman's expedition in 1939.[5][6] The Bailey–Morshead exploration in 1913 has inspired a modern Bailey Trail.[7][8]
