Haridwar: It is the very first stop on your journey to Kedarnath, famous for the Har Ki Pauri Ghat, Ganga Aarti, local market, and street food. You can cover these attractions at your convenience when you stay for a day in Haridwar.
Devprayag: Located around 95 km from Haridwar, Devprayag is a famous river confluence of the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi rivers. We will halt here for 15 minutes to enjoy the serene views and capture the meeting of the rivers.
Dhari Devi Temple: Our third sightseeing will be the famous Dhari Devi Temple, dedicated to Goddess Kali, located roughly around 45 km from Devprayag, and takes 1-2 hours. We will stay here for 30 minutes to get darshan and enjoy the view of the Alaknanda River.
Rudraprayag: Roughly around 20 km from Dhari Devi, Rudraprayag is the fourth sightseeing place of our journey from Haridwar to Guptkashi. It is one of the Panch Prayag. We’ll take a short tea break here to enjoy the views of the meeting point of the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers.
Gaurikund: We will also explore the Gaurikund hot water spring and the Gauri Devi Temple, as it is the base camp for the Kedarnath trek. Located roughly around 32 km from Guptkashi and 5 km from Sonprayag.
Bhim Shila: A sacred rock, just behind the temple, believed to save the shrine from the devastating Kedarnath flood of 2013. We also visit this massive boulder, Bhim Shila, after the Darshan. Devotees offer prayers and apply a Tilak on it to express gratitude.
Adi Shankaracharya Samadhi: The next spot is a memorial site of Adi Shankaracharya, a great Indian Philosopher who re-established the Kedarnath temple in the 8th century and took a Maha Samadhi at this sacred spot. We will also visit here.
Bhairavnath Temple: After the Kedarnath Darshan, we will trek 800 meters above Kedarnath to reach the Bhairavnath Temple, which is the guardian deity of the shrine and Kedar Valley. It is said that the Kedarnath Yatra is incomplete without visiting here.
Retas Kund: The next spot we will cover is a small pond around 500 meters from the main temple, famous for its mythological beliefs. When devotees chant “Om Namah Shivaaye”, bubbles pop up from the water of the holy pond.
Bonus: We also provide complimentary river rafting in Rishikesh, from Brahmapuri to Rishikesh Tapovan, about 12 km.
Note:- We also provide the Kedarnath trip package from Chennai. If you need, you can also check out this package.
We cover almost every place near the Kedarnath Temple and along the route, but if you want to add on some more sightseeing in the package, our services allow you to do that. You can choose any place you want to include in the sightseeing. We will design your itinerary tailored to your requirements, as we operate tours with our local and on-ground knowledge and experience of Himalayan Tours.
Suggested places that you can add on are as follows:
Registration is one of the most important documents you need to carry while travelling to the Kedarnath temple. Without registration, you will not be allowed to travel beyond Rishikesh. To ensure a smooth journey, just after the booking confirmation, we complete the yatra registration.
Yatra registration is complimentary in our package and we don’t charge anything extra for this.

Kedarnath packing list items:
Note: Must carry cash for shopping in Kedarnath, as online payments may not work due to poor network coverage.
Note:- If you are from Gujarat and want a package from your hometown, then just check out our trip package to Kedarnath from Surat.
On the first day of the trip, you will travel from Kolkata to Haridwar by train. We will book your train tickets in advance, 3rd AC for the Upasana Exp., departing around 1:00 PM from Howrah Junction in Kolkata.
You will cover a long train journey of around 26-27 hours. The train will reach Haridwar Junction at 3:50 PM the next day. From the Haridwar Railway Station, you need to reach your allotted hotel at your own convenience.
Note: Travel and hotel details will be provided in advance, a day before the trip.
Note: If you want to avoid a long train journey, you can also choose a flight from Kolkata to Dehradun. We will book your flight tickets at an additional cost.
Upon arriving at the stay location, a room will be assigned to you. You can relax there and spend some time to reduce travel fatigue. Then you can explore Haridwar at your own cost; visit the Har Ki Pauri Ghat, attend Ganga Aarti in the evening, and explore the local market. Also, you can try the street food at Haridwar. After all this, you can go back to your hotel room and enjoy your dinner, as it is included in the package. After dinner, get a good sleep, as tomorrow we are going a long way.
The next day, you will get your breakfast at the same hotel. After having your breakfast, check out of the hotel and reach the Haridwar Railway Station at your convenience. Reach the pickup location before the exact pickup time (drivers update the pickup time on the dedicated group).
From there, a tempo traveller will pick you up around 6:00 AM. Why is pickup so early? As you are going to cover a long road journey of over 200 km, which takes around 6-8 hours. Also, we will cover the sightseeing along the route, so starting early in the morning is necessary to reach Guptkashi by evening.
During the road journey from Haridwar to Guptkashi, we will cover sightseeing en route and take short breaks. The first sightseeing is Devprayag Sangam, the most famous among the Panch Prayag. We will stay here for 15 minutes to capture the confluence of the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi and to explore the site. After that, we will proceed to our next destination, the Dhari Devi temple, the guardian deity of Uttarakhand, located 45 km away, taking almost 1-2 hours to reach. The temple sits in the middle of the Alaknanda River, offering beautiful surroundings. We will halt here for 30 minutes to take darshan and photographs. Then we continue to Rudraprayag Sangam, another scenic spot, famous for the sangam of the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers.
We will take a short 15-minute tea break here. You can take photographs and enjoy the views while sitting at the nearby shops. From there, we will reach the Musafir Resort in Guptkashi by the evening. Our representative will greet you there and take you to your allotted room. You can rest in your room, get fresh, and enjoy the Himalayan views.
You will get your dinner, freshly cooked in the clean kitchen at the resort, with local spices. The staff will serve you dinner. Then our guide will meet you there and will brief you about the trip, especially about the trek, how you should trek, what to eat, what common mistakes to avoid, and some tips.
After attending the briefing session, you can enjoy a bonfire while sitting under the starry skies, with music and Himalayan views. Then go to your room and get a good sleep. You can ask the staff or guide if you need anything.
On the fourth day, we will start early, around 3:00 AM, from Guptkashi, as we are going to travel on a single road to reach Gaurikund, the base for the Kedarnath trek, which experiences heavy traffic during the peak season. We will reach Sonprayag by tempo traveller; from there, our guide will arrange a government taxi to Gaurikund, as a private vehicle can not go beyond Sonprayag.
After reaching Gaurikund, have your breakfast, then visit the hot spring and the Gauri Devi Temple, located within walking distance, then get ready for the trek to the Kedarnath temple. Our guide will be with you throughout the trek. If you feel sick or unable to complete the trek, you can take Ghoda/Palki services; our guide will arrange it for you at your convenience.
The trek is officially 16 km long, but in reality it is 22-24 km, and it is moderately difficult. To avoid any issues, our guide will provide tips and tricks about how to walk, what to wear, and what to eat to maintain energy. We will take short breaks at stops on the route, such as Bheembali, Lincholi, and more.
We aim to complete the trek by the evening, around 4-5 PM, as trekking after sunset is not safe. After completing the trek, you can check into your allotted hotel room just near the temple within 100 meters. If you arrive on time, you can attend the evening Aarti. After that, enjoy your meal in the hotel and get a good sleep.
Awake early; it’s a very special moment that you wait for Kedarnath Sparsh Darshan. Our guide will make a wake-up call at 3:00 AM, so get ready and join the darshan queues. You will get darshan by 7:00 AM if the crowd is minimal.
After darshan, we will proceed to cover the nearby places, including Bhim Shila, Bhairavnath temple (requires a further trek of around 800 meters), Retas Kund, and Adi Shankaracharya samadhi, all of which are located within walking distance of the temple. After that, we will reach the hotel, and you will have breakfast at the same hotel where you stayed.
Then, check out of the hotel, and we will start trekking down to Gaurikund. After reaching Gaurikund, our guide will arrange a shuttle taxi to Sonprayag. From there, the tempo traveller will pick you up, and we will move back to Guptkashi at the Musafir resort, following the same route. At the resort, our staff will allot your room and provide you with dinner. After having a comfortable meal for dinner, you can relax in your room.
The next morning, you will have your breakfast at the resort, and then your return journey to Haridwar will begin from Musafir Resort between 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM. Enjoy the breathtaking Himalayas one last time.
On your return journey, the vehicle will stop at local eateries for lunch/tea break, allowing you to take short breaks. Our target is to reach Rishikesh by 2:00 PM, as we are providing complimentary river rafting there. You can either enjoy the 12 km rafting from Brahmapuri to Rishikesh Tapovan or directly go to Haridwar.
Travellers who choose this adventure activity must reach their hotel in Haridwar at their own convenience from Rishikesh Tapovan. Many bus/cab/taxi are available. Check into your hotel and take a rest. If time permits, witness the mesmerising Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri Ghat. Enjoy your dinner and stay a night here to reduce travel fatigue.
On the last day, you will get your breakfast at the hotel. After breakfast, check out of the hotel and reach the Haridwar Railway Station at your own cost. For your return journey, we will book your train ticket for the Kolkata Express (13152) in 3AC, which arrives in Haridwar at 6:30 AM.
We request that you reach Haridwar Railway Station at least half an hour before your departure time. You will reach Kolkata the next day around 3:30 PM. Here, your trip will conclude. I hope you have a great experience with us, and we also hope you meet us again for another spiritual trip in the Himalayas.
