Package Highlights

Nestled in the Himalayas, Kedarnath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is the eleventh out of twelve Jyotirlingas of India. Often included in the Do Dham yatra package, the journey to the ancient Kedarnath Temple is an adventure in itself, often involving a trek through stunning, rugged terrain. The temple, set against the majestic backdrop of snow-capped peaks, exudes tranquility and reverence. Pilgrims and travelers alike find solace in the serene environment, the melodious chants, and the cool, crisp air. The Mandakini River flowing nearby adds to the mystical charm. Visiting Kedarnath is not just a pilgrimage but a journey that touches the soul, offering peace, reflection, and a deep connection with nature.

Badrinath is one of the four holy Char Dham destinations and also a part of the Panch Badri circuit. According to Hindu mythology, it is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, who is worshipped here as Badrinarayan. The temple holds great importance for Vaishnavites and devotees seeking spiritual liberation (Moksha).
