Here is the day when you are preparing for the Chardham Yatra most wanted 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 helicopter. Note: Now the trekking to Kedarnath Ji has been increased by 05 Km and visitors will be 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.

Rituals & Activities: Visit GauriKund, Darshan of Kedarnath Ji Temple, BhimShila and Chance to meet Gurus and Sadhus meditating for a long time in Kedarnath.

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 its 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.
