Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Dehradun/Rishikesh/Haridwar – Guptkashi (215 km / Approx. 9 hours’ drive)
Arrive at Haridwar. Our representative will meet and assist you and then drive to Guptkashi via Moolgarh & Lambgoan. En route, you can see the beautiful Mandakini River in Tilwara. The Mandakini river comes from Kedarnath. Drive alongside the river to reach Guptkashi and visit Ardh Narishwar Temple. 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, where the Pandavas finally fulfilled their wish. There are also more tangible connections—the Kedarnath pandas (priests) live in Guptkashi during winter. After the Kedarnath temple closes for the winter, the image of Kedarnath passes through Guptkashi on its way to Ukhimath (across the valley), where it stays for the winter.

Guptkashi Weather - Pleasant in summer, the temperature ranges from 25-30 degrees Celsius.
The morning after breakfast, proceed to Kedarnath. Enjoy Kedarnath Pooja Darshan and return to your hotel for an overnight stay at Kedarnath.

By Trek: In the morning, our driver will drop you off at Sonprayag. From there, you have to take a local jeep to Gourikund. Then ,your trek to Kedarnathji begins. After Darshan, follow the same route back to Sonprayag. There is a big parking issue, so the driver will return to another location. If his contact number is not working, you will need to arrange another taxi or wait for your driver and send a message through any other driver.

Kedarnath: The Kedarnath shrine, one of the 12 jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, is a scenic spot situated against the backdrop of the majestic Kedarnath range. Kedar is another name for Lord Shiva. According to legend, after having won over the Kauravas in the Kurukshetra war, the Pandavas felt guilty about killing their brothers and sought the blessings of Lord Shiva for redemption. He eluded them repeatedly and, while fleeing, took refuge at Kedarnath in the form of a bull. On being followed, he dived into the ground, leaving his hump on the surface. The remaining portions of Lord Shiva appeared at four other places and are worshipped there as his manifestations. The arms appeared at Tungnath, the face at Rudranath, the belly at Madhmaheshwar, and his locks (hair) with the head at Kalpeshwar. Kedarnath and the four above-mentioned shrines are treated as Panch Kedar.

Kedarnath Weather - Due to its high altitude, the weather in Kedarnath remains cold for most of the year. Summer here is cool and pleasant, while winter is severe. During the summer season, the temperature varies around 20° Celsius. Light woolen wear is recommended. Winter in Kedarnath is severe, with the mercury falling to as low as 0° Celsius. During this time, the place experiences snowfall as well. Due to the extreme climatic conditions, tourists usually avoid this time.
The morning after breakfast, proceed to Guptkashi by trek. Dinner and overnight stay at the hotel in Guptkashi.
After morning breakfast, check out and start your journey to Rishikesh, enroute visiting Rudraprayag, Devprayag, and Rishikesh. Drop off at Haridwar.

The trip was good and memorable. Only it could have been better, if the guide could have advice us beforehand, the duration of each place travel and rough duration time taken for each tour site.

I am happy to have engaged Travel India 360 for our tour to Mumbai, Shridi and Varanasi. We were provided with comfortable cars and ever friendly drivers too. Its worthwhile to mention that although w (Read More)e had booked only 1 vehicle for 5 persons, prior to the trip for our long road journey Mr Raghav provided 2 vehicles to ensure that we travel comfortably especially since it involved long hours on the road. The drivers were genuinely nice, gave us useful advise and recommendations along the way. Mr Raghav had personally met us in Varanasi and extended his guidance during our stay, took us to all the places we needed to see. He was quick to rectify little hiccups along the way. It was extremely kind of him to provide us with better rooms than what we had booked initially. You don't often come across travel companies that go out of their way to check on you regularly during the tour, and that's precisely the type of service we got from Mr Raghav. He is also pleasant and friendly man. Much appreciated. I would definitely engage Travel India 360 services again. Thank you for everything Raghav. best regards, Renuka, Kuala Lumpur
