Morning after breakfast, drive to Uttarkashi. Check into the hotel upon arrival in Uttarkashi. Visit the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Uttarkashi. Overnight stay at Uttarkashi.

Uttarkashi: It is home to several ashrams and temples. The town's name reflects its similarity to and location (north of) the city of Kashi (Varanasi). Like Varanasi, the town of Uttarkashi is also situated on the banks of River Ganga.
Early morning, drive to Gangotri, and en route to Gangnani, take a holy dip in Garam Kund. Further, drive to Gangotri.

The Kedarnath pandas (priests) live in Guptkashi during the winter months. After the Kedarnath temple closes for winter, the image of Kedarnath passes through Guptkashi on its way to Ukhimath, where it stays for the winter.
