Itinerary
Haridwar – Guptkashi-Phata -Sitapur (200 Kms/07 hrs). O/N Stay in Guptkashi/Sitapur:
The package inclusions start from Haridwar or Dehradun. We usually assume that you have pre-booked arrangements for night stay in Haridwar. However, if you want us to arrange your accommodation then you can make a request to our coordinator to arrange the same. You can also enjoy an early morning bathing in Ganga before departure from Haridwar.
Leave early in the morning after breakfast for an almost day-long drive to Sitapur via Guptkashi. Overnight stay in the hotel at Sitapur or Guptkashi. Sometimes it takes more than 10hrs if some traffic congestion is there. Upon reaching Sitapur or Rampur Or Guptkashi we will take rest. Night stay in hotel.
- Possible Sightseeing: Devprayag
- Distance Covered: 200 Kms / 07 Hrs
- Meals: Dinner Only
Stay: Guptkashi / Sitapur
Sitapur/Phata/Sirsi – Kedarnath –Phata/Sersi/Sitapur – Fly or Trek – O/N Stay in Sitapur Or Kedarnath (21Kms Trek):
Here is the day when you are preparing for the Chardham Yatra’s most rewarding and toughest part “The Darshan of Shri Kedarnath Ji”. Here many pilgrims have their own choices and preferences as per their physical ability and comfort. We have designed the program for both of the pilgrims who prefer to trek or want to complete the journey by air.
Note: Now the trekking to Kedarnath Ji is increased by 05 Kms and visitors are recommended to make night stay in case of trekking. We would advise those who are not physically strong to cover this trek on foot, they should hire some assistance like Pony or Pithus to complete the Yatra without any hassle or complication.
Note: The road from Rudraprayag to Guptkashi Or Phata is good for small or light vehicles but onward road to Gaurikund is in bad condition, the 14 km old trek route along the river Mandakini from Gaurikund to Rambara and then to Sri Kedarnath is washed away at many places and a new trek is approx. 19 km long climbing up to 13000 ft. and then coming down to Sri Kedarnath at 11760 ft., it is not possible to travel this distance in one day so one night stop will be required. Nowadays the Govt. has facilitated with many basic arrangements like Wifi and other health camps to serve in a better way and also allow the pilgrims to have a night stay at Sri Kedarnath. It is seen in recent years many trekkers have made their return the same day from Gaurikund-Kedarnath-Gaurikund but they were physically fit and strong enough to cover this distance in the same day by trek. Now pilgrims are getting a new opportunity to see BHIM SHILA-a new mythological attraction, a giant stone protected Kedarnath Ji Temple during disaster time.
Highly important to note & understand:
We need to understand that Kedarnath Ji Yatra in the Chardham sector is the most important for pilgrims who are visiting anytime during summer or winters. The Kedarnath region is unpredictable in terms of weather turbulence in trek or flying or even technical snag or operation restraints in flying also becomes sometimes a major reason for delay in completing Journey of Kedarnath Ji. There are also unforeseen reasons and further it can disturb your schedule If you are fixed with your further pre- reserved program. So we should always choose or opt for a buffer day in hand to stay in this region (03 Nights in Sitapur Or Rampur Or Phata Or Guptkashi Including a night in Kedarnathji in case or optional). Please don’t set any hectic program or itinerary suggested by any agent which is recommending only 02 nights in Sitapur or Kedarnath Ji Sector. Being an experienced one in Chardham Yatra service provider we can recommend you these important options to choose with your program and accordingly you can convince your co-passengers or associates.
Rituals & Activities: Visit GauriKund, Darshan of Kedarnath Ji Temple, BhimShila and Chance to meet Gurus and Sadhus meditating for a long time in Kedarnath.

Trekking down to Sitapur Or Guptkashi from Kedarnath Via Gaurikund & SonPrayag. Night Stay in Sitapur Or Guptkashi. (21 Kms Trek)
Trek down from Kedarnath to Gaurikund & Sonprayag and transfer to Sitapur Or Guptkashi. On this day we will stay in Sitapur to keep a buffer time in hand to handle any last moment delay because of bad weather or any technical or medical reason. This is the best way to arrange an itinerary or program for both trekkers and flyers to Shri Kedarnath Ji. In lack of geographical knowledge and climate conditions of this divine land some passengers or some travel agents or tour operators use to keep neck to neck program for 02 nights in Kedarnath Ji region and this always creates problems and they themselves use to disturb their further program. You should cover the sight-sing or Darshan of Shri Triyugi Narayan Temple (Optional and Chargeable Extra) for maximum use of this day if we stay in Sitapur.
Optional Stay in Chopta or Ukhimath can be recommended in case we descend timely from Kedarnath Ji. But it is always recommended to be base station of Shri Kedarnath Ji this night for maximum benefits and comfort.

Arrive in Rishikesh, and you will visit Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula on your own, as this is not motorable. The vehicle will wait for you in the parking. The best way to visit this part of Rishikesh is to enter Laxman Jhula and exit from Ram Jhula.
You can also see many Ghats and temples and beautiful Ashrams. Rishikesh is the next home of Sadhus & Saints.
It is also called the Capital land of Yoga. You need to keep watch on time if you have missed your Ganga Aarti on day 01 upon arrival to Haridwar. So, it is in your hand how fast you finish your sightseeing and reach Har-Ki-Pouri, Haridwar, for Ganga Aarti. It generally starts at 06:00 PM in summer and 5:15 PM in winter. Those who have enjoyed day 01 can have the opportunity to enjoy some more time in Rishikesh.
This is your last day and evening so must have to arrange your bags and pack. Evening you can enjoy shopping in Rishikesh. Departure to Dehradun Airport or Haridwar Railway Station for back to home. Time to wish you all the best for your glorious and spiritual life ahead. May God Bless You all spiritual advancement with great peace and super health.

Good Bye !
Why do travel agents or transporters or Driver charge extra for the excursions sites like Chopta-Mana-Triyugi Narayan- Neel KanthMahadev etc on Chardham ruote ?
Tourism dependants like local drivers in Chardham Yatra places in the Himalayan Mountains have limited opportunities to earn their daily livelihood. They are highly dependent on this seasonal business which hardly comes on the peak for 30 days. In this limited time, they need to work hard for their family. So, the local drivers’ associations and other small organizations supported by Uttarakhand Tourism & Travel Association (UKTTA) believe that they should have a nominal charge extra on these kinds of excursions which will be a side income other than their fixed daily wages. As a responsible tourism activist, this is also our request to our pilgrims not to panic or hesitate or be reluctant to give any nominal amount to these communities. They deserve this being real heroes of this Yatra. Admission charges for the trip are Triyugi Narayan Temple + Chopta + Mana (3500 Per Small Vehicle Till 03-04 Seated / 4500 Per Mid-Size SUV for 06-07 People/ 5500 Rs for 12 Seats and above).
