The Devine kedarnnath yatra

Kedarnath Yatra — A Divine Pilgrimage to the Abode of Lord Shiva

Kedarnath Temple, perched at ~3,583 m in the Garhwal Himalayas beside the sacred Mandakini River, is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas and a key stop on the revered Chota Char Dham circuit  Built by the Pandavas and later revived by Adi Shankaracharya, it stands as a timeless symbol of devotion and spirituality

Highlights of the Yatra

  • Spiritual Essence: Seek blessings at the majestic Kedarnath Temple, believed to cleanse sins and bring inner peace, prosperity, and spiritual liberation in the Kali Yuga

  • Scenic Trekking Route: Begin from Gaurikund and walk or take a pony/palki on a 16 km trail through emerald valleys, rugged terrain, and the rushing Mandakini River beneath snow‑tipped peaks

  • Other Sacred Stops: Explore Gaurikund hot springs, Bhairon Temple, Triyuginarayan Temple, Vasuki Tal, and Chorabari (Gandhi Sarovar) Tal to enrich your pilgrimage

Best Time to Visit

The Kedarnath Temple opens annually around Akshaya Tritiya (late April/early May) and closes by Kartik Purnima (October/early November) due to snow . Ideal travel windows are May–June and September–October, offering clear skies and manageable crowds
