The road journey is about 205 to 220 km and usually takes 8 to 10 hours by car. You will pass through the beautiful Garhwal Himalayan landscape, with mountain views, riverside stretches, and quiet valleys.
Along the way, take in the lovely views of the Mandakini River. This river flows down from the Kedarnath region and accompanies you for parts of the trip. Once you reach Guptkashi, check in at your hotel and visit the famous Ardh Narishwar Temple. This revered shrine is dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati in their half-male, half-female form, symbolizing divine unity.
Lush hills surround Guptkashi and feature several ancient temples, making it a spiritually rich and calming place to begin your Himalayan journey. In the evening, have dinner at the hotel and enjoy a peaceful overnight stay in Guptkashi.

The traditional trek to Kedarnath Temple from Gaurikund is about 16 km one-way. It winds through beautiful Himalayan scenery with rest areas along the way. You’ll pass places like Jungle Chatti, Bheembali, Linchauli, and Base Camp before reaching the temple.

On the way, stop at Joshimath, a vital pilgrimage town and gateway to Badrinath. Here, you can visit the ancient Narsingh Temple, known as the winter residence of Lord Badrinath. The deity is honored here during the colder months when the Badrinath Temple closes for winter. You’ll also see Jyotirmath (Joshimath), one of the main mathas founded by Adi Shankaracharya. This place is also the starting point for several treks, including the famous Valley of Flowers trek.
Continue your journey to Badrinath and aim to arrive by afternoon or early evening. After you check in to your hotel, freshen up, and later take part in the evening Aarti and Shayan Aarti Darshan at the Badrinath Temple. This uplifting ritual occurs around sunset in a sacred atmosphere.
After this spiritually enriching experience, return to your hotel for dinner and an overnight stay in Badrinath.
Wake up before dawn and have a tasty breakfast. Then set out for a full day of sightseeing in Badrinath, one of the holiest pilgrimage sites in the Garhwal Himalayas.

Next, explore Brahma Kapal, a sacred place by the Alaknanda River where people perform special rites for their ancestors. Also, visit Charan Paduka, where there are footprints of Lord Vishnu on a sacred rock.
Check out Narad Kund, another holy hot spring near the temple, and Mata Murti Temple, which honors the mother of Lord Badrinath.
