Best Time to Go on Kedarnath Yatra

The best time to go on Kedarnath Yatra is in the summer (May to June) and the off-monsoon period (September to October). You are met with pleasant weather and clear skies which make the task of temple tours and sightseeing a cakewalk! Moreover, in the period just after the rains, you’ll be welcome with verdant valleys that give way to snowy mountains! This is the peak season for booking Kedarnath Tour Packages.

Legend of Kedarnath Temple

As per Hindu mythology, Pandavas were overwhelmed with the guilt of killing their brothers in the Kurukshetra war. To atone for their sins and seek forgiveness, they approached Lord Shiva in Varanasi. However, Shiva didn’t want to grant them absolution so easily. To avoid Pandavas, he disguised himself as a bull and went to the Himalayas.

Determined to cleanse their Karma, Pandavas followed him. As they reached Kedarnath, they recognised Shiva in the form of a bull. Bhima, the strongest of all Pandavas, tried to catch the bull. However, the bull took a dive into the ground and disappeared. However, his hump was left behind. It’s said that some other parts of the bull also appeared at different locations and they now collectively form the sacred sites of Panch Kedar:

• Kedarnath – Hump
• Tungnath – Arms
• Rudranath – Face
• Madhyamaheshwar – Stomach
• Kalpeshwar – Hair
