About this tour

Kedarnath Dham is a significant pilgrimage site for Hindus, located in the state of Uttarakhand, India. It holds immense religious importance as one of the Char Dham (four abodes) pilgrimage sites, revered by followers of Hinduism. Here are some key aspects about Kedarnath Dham:

Location: Situated in the Garhwal Himalayas at an altitude of about 3,583 meters (11,755 feet) above sea level.

Religious Significance: Kedarnath is dedicated to Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities in Hinduism. It is believed to be one of the holiest Shiva temples, and visiting it is considered highly auspicious.

Pilgrimage: The pilgrimage to Kedarnath is part of the Char Dham Yatra, which also includes Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri. Pilgrims undertake this journey to attain spiritual purification and blessings.

Accessibility: The temple is not easily accessible throughout the year due to heavy snowfall during winter months. It is typically open between April/May to October/November, depending on weather conditions.

Natural Beauty: Apart from its religious significance, Kedarnath is surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty with views of snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and pristine landscapes.

Historical and Mythological Background: According to Hindu mythology, Kedarnath is where Lord Shiva granted a boon to the Pandava brothers by forgiving them for the war of Kurukshetra. The temple itself has undergone renovations and rebuilds due to damage caused by natural disasters.

Tourism: In recent years, Kedarnath has seen increased tourism, necessitating efforts to balance pilgrimage with environmental conservation.

Infrastructure: The area around Kedarnath has basic accommodation facilities for pilgrims, including guest houses and dharamshalas (pilgrim rest houses).

Challenges: The region faces challenges such as weather extremes, logistical difficulties, and environmental concerns due to its high-altitude location and fragile ecosystem.
