Embark on a spiritually enriching journey through the sacred Char Dham sites—Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath—along with a visit to Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world. This 12-day pilgrimage from Haridwar is a perfect blend of spirituality, adventure, and breathtaking Himalayan landscapes, offering a once-in-a-lifetime experience for devotees and nature lovers alike.
The Char Dham Uttarakhand Yatra is one of the most revered Hindu pilgrimages, believed to be the pathway to moksha (salvation). These four sacred shrines—Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath—are dedicated to different deities and hold immense religious significance. Yamunotri is the source of the Yamuna River, Gangotri marks the origin of the holy Ganges, Kedarnath is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, and Badrinath is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. A journey to these holy sites is considered highly auspicious, washing away past sins and paving the way for spiritual enlightenment.
Adding Tungnath Temple to your Char Dham Yatra enhances the spiritual essence of the journey. Situated at an altitude of 3,680 meters, Tungnath is the highest Shiva temple in the world and a part of the Panch Kedar circuit. The trek to Tungnath is not just a religious experience but also an opportunity to witness the stunning Himalayan peaks, lush green meadows, and the tranquil beauty of nature. It is an ideal pilgrimage for those seeking divine blessings and an adventurous trekking experience.
Nestled in the Garhwal Himalayas, Yamunotri is the source of the Yamuna River. The temple, dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, is surrounded by thermal springs, the most famous being Surya Kund, where devotees cook rice as a prasad offering.
Gangotri Temple marks the origin of the River Ganga, which is considered the holiest river in Hinduism. It is believed that King Bhagirath performed penance here to bring the river from heaven to earth. The pristine surroundings and spiritual ambiance make Gangotri a must-visit.
Kedarnath Temple is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas and is situated at an altitude of 3,583 meters near the Mandakini River. The trek to Kedarnath is challenging but deeply rewarding, offering a divine experience amidst the breathtaking Himalayan peaks.
Situated between the Nar and Narayan mountain ranges, Badrinath Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. The temple is believed to be the place where Lord Vishnu meditated. Pilgrims also take a holy dip in the Tapt Kund, a natural hot spring near the temple.
At 3,680 meters, Tungnath is the highest Shiva temple and an essential stop for Lord Shiva devotees. The trek to Tungnath starts from Chopta, often called the Mini Switzerland of India, and offers mesmerizing views of the Chaukhamba, Nanda Devi, and Trishul peaks.
The best time to undertake the Char Dham Yatra with Tungnath is from May to June and September to October. During these months, the weather is pleasant, the temples are open, and the trekking routes remain accessible. The monsoon months (July-August) should be avoided due to heavy rainfall and the risk of landslides.
