Embark on the Sacred Journey of a Lifetime
Welcome to Swami Narayan Tour & Travels, your trusted travel partner for the divine Char Dham Yatra in the mystical land of Uttarakhand. Our specially curated Char Dham Yatra Itinerary ensures a spiritual, seamless, and enriching experience as you visit the four sacred shrines — Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath.
Detailed Char Dham Itinerary
1. Yamunotri – The Abode of Goddess Yamuna
The spiritual journey begins with Yamunotri, nestled at an altitude of 3,293 meters (10,804 feet) in the Garhwal Himalayas. Dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, this serene destination offers both natural beauty and divine blessings.
To reach Yamunotri, pilgrims trek approximately 6 kilometers from Hanuman Chatti. The trek is moderately challenging, but you can also opt for ponies or palanquins for added comfort. The Yamunotri Temple, dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, stands as the primary attraction, while the Surya Kund hot spring offers a spiritually rejuvenating experience.
2. Gangotri – Where the Holy Ganges Begins
The next sacred destination is Gangotri, perched at 3,100 meters (10,170 feet) above sea level. Gangotri Temple, dedicated to Goddess Ganga, is the main highlight, drawing thousands of devotees every year.
Unlike Yamunotri, Gangotri is easily accessible by road, making it a comfortable pilgrimage stop. From May to November, the temple opens its doors to pilgrims seeking blessings from Mother Ganga, whose sacred waters originate from the Gangotri Glacier.
3. Kedarnath – The Land of Lord Shiva
The third leg of the Char Dham Yatra takes you to Kedarnath, situated at a breathtaking altitude of 3,583 meters (11,755 feet) in Rudraprayag district. This revered site is home to the ancient Kedarnath Temple, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Pilgrims must undertake a 16-kilometer trek from Gaurikund to reach Kedarnath. The trek, though moderately difficult, offers awe-inspiring views of snow-clad peaks and divine vibes. Ponies and palanquins are also available for those seeking an easier ascent.
4. Badrinath – The Abode of Lord Vishnu
The final and most iconic destination is Badrinath, located at an altitude of 3,133 meters (10,279 feet) in Chamoli district. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the Badrinath Temple is easily accessible by road, making it a favorite among pilgrims.
Open from May to November, the temple welcomes devotees who come to seek the blessings of Lord Vishnu, worshipped here as Badri Narayan. Surrounded by the majestic Neelkanth Peak, the spiritual aura and natural beauty of Badrinath leave visitors spellbound.
