Detailed Itinerary

Pick up from Haridwar/Dehradun/Rishikesh and drive to Barkot. Check into the hotel upon arrival in Barkot. Overnight stay at Barkot.

Barkot Weather: Generally pleasant in summer, with 25–30°C. In winter, the days are pleasantly cool, but the nights are cold, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 5°C.
Early morning after breakfast, drive to Jankichatti / Phoolchatti and start the trek to Yamunotri (4 km) (either by walk, horse, or doli at own cost). After taking a bath in Jamunabai Kund's warm water and having Darshan of "Yamunaji," return to Jankichatti by trek. Later, drive back to Barkot after check-out from the hotel. Overnight stay at Barkot.

Yamunotri Temple: Maharani Gularia of Jaipur built the temple in the 19th century. It was destroyed twice in the present century and rebuilt again.

At Yamunotri: One can cook rice by packing it in a cloth and dipping it in the hot water of the Taptkund. Pilgrims take this cooked rice home as "Prasad." Near the temple, Pooja can be offered to Divya Shila.

Surya Kund: There are several thermal springs near the temple, which flow into numerous pools. The most important of these is Surya Kund.

Divya Shila: A rock pillar worshipped before entering the Yamunotri Temple.
Yamunotri Weather: In summer, the maximum temperature is 18°C, and the minimum is 10°C. The days are pleasantly cool, but the nights are cold.
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.

On arrival at Shree Gangotri, take a holy dip in the sacred Ganges, also called Bhagirathi at its origin. Perform Pooja and Darshan, then relax in the lovely surroundings. Later, drive back to Uttarkashi. Overnight stay at Uttarkashi.

Gangotri Temple: The temple, constructed by Gorkha General Amar Singh Thapa in the 18th century, is situated on the right bank of the Bhagirathi River.

Light woolen clothes are required while visiting Gangotri during summer. Winter is very chilly in Gangotri, with heavy snowfall covering the region. Pilgrim centers remain closed throughout winter due to snow.
The morning after breakfast, drive to Guptkashi via Moolgarh and Lambgaon. En route, enjoy the view of the beautiful Mandakini River at Tilwara. The Mandakini River originates from Kedarnath. Drive alongside the river to reach Guptkashi. Visit the Ardh Narishwar Temple in Guptkashi. Check into the hotel upon arrival in Guptkashi. Overnight stay at Guptkashi.

Guptkashi: The name Guptkashi means "Hidden Benares." Mythology describes how when the Pandava brothers were searching for a glimpse of Shiva, Shivji first concealed himself at Guptkashi but fled further up the valley to Kedarnath. 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.

Guptkashi Weather: Pleasant in summer, with temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C. Winters are cold.

Kedarnath: The Kedarnath shrine, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, is a scenic spot against the majestic Kedarnath range. Kedar is another name for Lord Shiva. According to legend, the Pandavas sought blessings from Lord Shiva for redemption after the Kurukshetra war.
