Kedarnath Package from Haridwar
2 Nights 3 Days
Itinerary
Day 1 - Haridwar - Guptkashi
Morning after breakfast, drive to Guptkashi via Rudraprayag &
Devoprayag. Enroute you can see the beautiful river Mandakini at Tilwara. The
Mandakini river comes from Kedarnath, drive alongside the river to reach
Guptakashi, visit Ardh Narishwar Temple in Guptakashi. Check into the hotel
arrival in Guptakashi. Overnight stay at Guptakashi.
Guptakashi:- The name Gupt Kashi means "Hidden Banaras". Mythology describes how
when the Pandava brothers were searching for a glimpse of Shiva, Shivji first
concealed himself at Guptkashi, but later fled from them further up the valley
to Kedarnath, where the Pandavas finally got their wish fulfilled. There are
more tangible connections as well-the Kedarnath pandas (priests) live in
Guptkashi during the winter months, and after the Kedarnath temple closes for
the winter, the image of Kedarnath passes through Gupt Kashi on its way to
Ukhimath (across the valley), where it stays for the winter.
Guptkashi Weather:- Pleasant in summer, the temperature ranges from 25-30 degree
Celsius. Cold in winters. /p>
