Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Haridwar To Guptkashi
  • Morning after breakfast, travel to Guptkashi via Moolgarh and Lambgoan.
  • On the way, enjoy views of the beautiful Mandakini River at Tilwara.
  • The Mandakini River originates from Kedarnath; drive alongside the river to reach Guptakashi.
  • Visit the Ardh Narishwar Temple in Guptakashi.
  • Check into the hotel upon arrival in Guptakashi.
  • Stay overnight in Guptakashi.
  • Guptakashi: The name "Gupt Kashi" means "Hidden Benares." Mythology describes how the Pandava brothers, in search of a glimpse of Shiva, found that Shivji first concealed himself at Guptkashi but later fled further up the valley to Kedarnath, where the Pandavas' wish was finally fulfilled.
  • Additionally, the Kedarnath pandas (priests) reside in Guptkashi during the winter months. After the Kedarnath temple closes for winter, the image of Kedarnath passes through Gupt Kashi on its way to Ukhimath (across the valley), where it stays for the winter.
  • Guptkashi Weather: Agreeable in summer, with temperatures ranging from 25-30 degrees Celsius; cold in winter.
  • Early morning departure for Kedarnath Dham after breakfast.

    • You will then take a local jeep to Gaurikund, and your trek to Kedarnath Ji will begin.
    • After Darshan, you will follow the same route and return to Sonprayag.
    • There is a significant parking issue, so the driver may have to return to another location.
    • If his contact number is not working, you will need to arrange another taxi or wait for your 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, the Pandavas, after winning over the Kauravas in the Kurukshetra war, felt guilty for having killed their own 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.
    • When followed, he dived into the ground, leaving his hump on the surface.
  • Kedarnath Weather:
    • Due to its high elevation, the weather in Kedarnath remains cold for most of the year.
    • Summer here is cool and agreeable, with temperatures varying around 20°C.
    • Light woolen wear is recommended during summer.
    • Winter in Kedarnath is severe, with temperatures falling as low as 0°C.

  • Bhim Pul: On the other side of Mana village, a heavy rock forms a natural bridge over the roaring Saraswati River, presenting a spectacular view of water thundering down through the narrow passage under the rock. It is believed to have been placed there by Bhim, the second eldest among the five Pandava brothers.
