About Kedarnath Yatra

Four days from Haridwar or Rishikesh to the Kedarnath shrine and back, with an overnight stay at the temple. The 16 km trail from Gaurikund climbs through valleys, rhododendron canopy and the chattis at Jungle Chatti, and the halts at Sonprayag on either side keep the trek days clean.

Highlights
  • Kedarnath Temple at 11,755 ft, with the pre-dawn Abhishek
  • Kedarnath Dome and Kedar Peak at sunrise and sunset
  • Guptkashi — Vishwanath and Ardhnarishwar Temples
  • Gaurikund and Jungle Chatti on the trek route
  • Dhari Devi and the Rudraprayag Sangam en route
  • The Mandakini river at Tilwara
Two things in the source PDF do not line up. The inclusions section is boilerplate carried over from a longer itinerary — it refers to 7 nights of accommodation and meals from Day 1 dinner to Day 5 breakfast, which cannot apply to a 4-day trip, so inclusions are withheld here pending confirmation. The calendar page also states daily departures from Haridwar / Rishikesh while a later page states weekend batches every Saturday. The itinerary, pricing, transport and packing details below are accurate as printed.

Day-by-day Schedule

  • 5 AM pickup from Haridwar / Rishikesh.
  • Drive via Devprayag, Srinagar, Rudraprayag and Guptkashi.
  • Registration check en route.
  • Reach Sonprayag / Sitapur by evening. Dinner and overnight at the hotel.
