Kedarnath - The Yatra: Located at the foot of the Garhwal Himalayas at 3,583 meters, Kedarnath is where time seems to stand still. The day starts at Gaurikund, where trekkers don boots for a challenging but rewarding 16-kilometer ascent. Every step along the way is sacred, with the Mandakini River flowing alongside as a constant companion. Walking is a test of determination. When you approach the temple, a fresh breeze and the occasional Garoa will test your resolve. But when you get close to the temple, fatigue disappears. The view of the majestic Kedarnath Temple standing tall with the snow-capped peaks in the backdrop is nothing short of amazing.

Legend of the Pandavas: According to legend, the Pandavas built temples to atone for their sins after the Mahabharata War. While fleeing from the Pandavas, Lord Shiva took the form of a cow and disappeared on Earth at Kedarnath. It is believed that this temple was built on the site where Lord Shiva disappeared.

Legend of Nar and Narayana: According to legend, the sage duo Nar and Narayan performed penance and asked Lord Shiva to reside in Kedarnath forever. Shiva agreed, and since then, he has resided in the Shiv Linga Triangle. The temple is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, the holiest Hindu temples of Lord Shiva. It is also one of the four sacred shrines of India, known as the Char Dhams.

Tungnath Trail: Where mountains whisper fairy tales: If the Do Dham Yatra is about grandeur, then the Tungnath Yatra is about intimacy with the Himalayas. Tungnath Temple, the highest in the world at 3,680 meters, is a place where myth and nature come together.
