Itinerary
Haridwar – Transfer to Govindghat/Pipalkoti or Badrinath for Night Stay. (311 kms/ 09 Hrs):
Leave early in the morning after breakfast for an almost day-long drive to Pipalkoti/Govindghat/Badrinath. Overnight stay in the hotel. Sometimes it takes more than 10 hrs if some traffic congestion is there.
Why we prefer to stay in Govindghat/Pipalkoti?
The journey from Sitapur to Govindghat is a long distance and bit hectic. It’s always been observed and experienced that passengers always reaches Badrinath around midnight or late in the evening when we book and confine their stay in Badrinath. It has always been experienced that it becomes extremely tricky to manage the services timely in condition to stay in Badrinath. And it’s obviously extremely tiring and rushing experience for guests when they are confined to return next day to another destination from Badrinath. It’s always seen that road from Govindghat to Badrinath via Lambgarh is usually disturbed. So, we never suggest pilgrims to cross this stage in late evening.
Advantages of staying at Govindghat Or Pipalkoti for 02 Nights while covering to Badrinath Ji Yatra in Chardham?
Advantages of staying in Govindghat/Pipalkoti for 2 Nights during Chardham Yatra:
Logistics and Time Management:
- Avoiding late arrival in Badrinath: By staying in Govindghat or Pipalkoti, you ensure a more relaxed early morning journey to Badrinath, reaching before sunset. This eliminates the stress of rushing through darshan and accommodation arrangements in the dark.
- Managing services efficiently: Early arrival allows ample time to settle into your Badrinath accommodation, organize temple darshan, and participate in evening aarti, all without feeling rushed or pressured.
- Avoiding the hectic Sitapur-Badrinath one go journey: The long and sometimes challenging road trip from Sitapur to Badrinath can be tiring, especially in peak season. Starting from Govindghat or Pipalkoti reduces travel time and fatigue, allowing you to focus on the pilgrimage.
Acclimatization and Safety:
- Gradual ascent: Govindghat and Pipalkoti are situated at lower altitudes than Badrinath, allowing for gradual acclimatization to the thin mountain air. This reduces the risk of altitude sickness and improves your overall enjoyment of the yatra.
- Avoiding late evening travel on the Govindghat-Badrinath road: This stretch can be prone to landslides and disruptions, especially in the evenings. By staying in Govindghat, you avoid risking late journeys on this potentially hazardous route.
Spiritual and Leisure Benefits:
- Exploring Govindghat/Pipalkoti: Both locations offer scenic beauty, spiritual sites, and cultural experiences. You can visit Hemkund Sahib Ji, Govindghat or explore the traditional markets of Pipalkoti & Joshimath.
- Relaxing breaks: Two nights in Govindghat/Pipalkoti allows for relaxation and rejuvenation before and after the Badrinath visit. This break can enhance your overall yatra experience and prevent exhaustion.
Overall, staying in Govindghat or Pipalkoti for two nights during your Chardham Yatra offers numerous advantages in terms of logistics, safety, acclimatization, and spiritual/leisure opportunities. It allows for a more relaxed, efficient, and enjoyable pilgrimage experience.
However, in an extreme choice & preferring condition of individual, we can arrange stay in Badrinath but entirely on the own risk of passengers or pilgrims.

The spot was carpeted with ‘badris’ or wild berries and hence was famous as Badri van. Legend has it, when the Ganga was requested to descend to earth to help suffering humanity, the earth was unable to withstand the force of its decent.

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 families. 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).
