To families who want to have comfort, safety, and spiritual satisfaction, a professionally organized package will guarantee hassle-free travel, quality lodging set-ups, and professional guidance during the trip.

What is Chardham Yatra?

There are four temples referred to as the Himalayan Chardham and comprise the Chardham Yatra in Uttarakhand:

• Yamunotri – Devoted to Yamuna the goddess
• Gangotri – Devoted to the goddess Ganga
• Kedarnath – Kedarnath is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva
• Badrinath – Devoted to Lord Vishnu

Conventionally the yatra starts at Yamunotri and proceeds to Gangotri, Kedarnath and lastly Badrinath.
