Haridwar Rishikesh Kedarnath Tour Package 5 Nights / 6 Days

Starting Your Journey From Haridwar

Haridwar is a different story altogether. As you arrive, it truly feels like you're standing at the gates of the divine. The same gates through which Mahadev or Vishnu can enter anyone's home, and grant them darshan. This place is visited by thousands of devotees every year, drawn by its stunning Ganga ghats, and numerous temples like the Chandi Devi Temple, Mansa Devi Temple, and Daksha Temple. (Haridwar Travel Guide).

• Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri
  Haridwar has no shortage of religious sites, but the main attraction is undoubtedly the Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri. The aarti is held here twice a day, morning and evening, regardless of the weather. People start gathering at the Aarti site 1-2 hours prior to the event, as it attracts a huge crowd.

Rishikesh- Mid Destination of the Journey

After Haridwar, it's time to head to Rishikesh, a city nurtured by the Goddess Ganga's waters. Every moment spent here is unforgettable. Spend a day here, from morning to evening, and you'll notice the water level of the Ganges changing, and the mountains and sky transforming colors. During the rainy season, it's not uncommon for the rain to start and not stop, only to suddenly give way to sunshine, making it seem like it never rained at all. (Rishikesh Travel Guide)

• The Iconic Bridges of Rishikesh
  For years, Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula have been the main attractions here, and now Janki Jhula has joined that list. All three are suspension bridges, offering an exhilarating experience as you cross from one side to the other. Janki Jhula has become increasingly popular, and to manage the crowds, it's been divided into three sections: two for two-wheelers and the middle section for pedestrians. Unlike Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula, Janki Jhula doesn't swing, but walking over it above the Ganges River is still a thrilling experience. Ram Jhula's vicinity offers a delightful culinary experience and shopping opportunities. Browse through the local markets and discover unique antique treasures. (Places to Visit in Rishikesh )
• Rishikesh: Beyond the Rapids
  When it comes to white water rafting, Rishikesh is the first place that comes to mind. You'll spot many foreigners here, and a lot of them make it a point to experience rafting. Additionally, licensed operators offer other adventure activities like bungee jumping, rappelling, kayaking, and rock climbing. Rishikesh offers a plethora of thrilling activities for every kind of adventurer. (Things to do in Rishikesh)

The Kedarnath Temple: Abode of Lord Shiva

The Kedarnath Temple is an abode of Lord Mahadev nestled in the Garhwal Himalayas. It's one of the four sacred dhams. Kedarnath Temple is the third and most special destination of our journey, as planning a trip here can be quite challenging. You can behold the temple set against a stunning Himalayan backdrop, where you can trek, or opt for a palanquin/pony. However, you can also go with the option of helicopter services to seek the blessings of Kedarnath. (Kedarnath Travel Guide)

• Kedarnath Through Trekking
  Most people prefer to complete the Kedarnath journey by trekking, but for those who face physical challenges, palanquin and pony services are also available for hire. Your 17 km trek begins from Gaurikund. The path is rugged and winding, but the destination makes all the hardship worthwhile. ( Places to visit near Kedarnath )
• Kedarnath Through Helicopter
  The second option is to take a helicopter to Kedarnath, which allows you to soar through the skies and reach the revered shrine. This is a luxurious option that not only saves time but also offers exclusive amenities. It's ideal for pilgrims seeking a luxurious experience, those with limited time, or those who face difficulties with trekking.

Best Time to Visit

The most optimal time to complete the Rishikesh Haridwar Kedarnath Yatra is from May to June or September to November. You can choose any of these periods at your convenience. However, it's advised to avoid this journey from July to August due to heavy rainfall, which can cause landslides and block roads.
