Itinerary
Your sacred journey begins with a morning pickup from your designated location in Rishikesh or Dehradun. From there, we will drive towards Guptkashi, a significant town on the pilgrimage route. The drive is scenic, taking you along the Ganga and Mandakini rivers. Upon arrival, you will check into your hotel and rest for the night.
After an early breakfast, we drive to Sonprayag, the last point for private vehicles. From here, you will board a local vehicle to Gaurikund, the starting point for the trek to Kedarnath. You can complete the 18 km journey on foot, or hire a pony or palki. After reaching the temple and completing darshan, check into your pre-booked guesthouse or hotel for an overnight stay.
Begin your day with the morning Abhishek Puja at the Kedarnath Temple. After this divine experience, trek back down to Gaurikund. From there, you will be driven back to your hotel in Guptkashi, where you can relax and rejuvenate after the demanding trek.
Today, we travel from Guptkashi to the holy town of Badrinath, home to the revered Badrinath Temple. The route passes through Chopta and Joshimath, offering spectacular views of the Himalayan peaks. Upon arrival in Badrinath, check into your hotel. In the evening, you will visit the temple for darshan and attend the sacred evening aarti.
After attending the morning darshan at Badrinath Temple, you can visit nearby significant spots like Mana Village, the last village on the Indian border. Following this, we begin our return journey, driving down to Rudraprayag. This town is sacred as it marks the confluence of the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers. Check into your hotel for an overnight stay.
After a final breakfast in the mountains, we will drive back to your original starting point in either Rishikesh or Dehradun. You will be dropped off at the airport, railway station, or your hotel, bringing your memorable Do Dham Yatra to a close.
