We will begin early for our visit to the second dham at Gangotri. The fifth day is our favorite day of road-trip. The mesmerizing scenery as one drives along the banks of River Bhagirathi is the reason behind this. Take Harsil as an example. The serene, silent and idyllic hill station has largely escaped the reaches of commercialization, and thus presents a picture-perfect abode of beautiful apple orchards, myriads of birds and hundreds of scenic spots. Some pilgrims insist on taking a dip in the holy waters of Bhagirathi in spite of its temperature being icy cold. You may perform puja or rituals upon its holy banks as well.

Gangotri Temple shines akin to a milky pearl, quite congruent with what is expected of a temple venerating abode of Maa Ganga, a symbol of purity and sacredness in millions of Indian minds. Just being in its premises lets one breathe in the purity and spiritual sublimity. After the blissful darshan, we will drive you back to hotel in Uttarkashi.

(‘Panchprayags’ refers to the five holy confluences of rivers in Garhwal Himalayas.). At Rudraprayag, worship at the Gauri Temple that adorns the banks of the confluence.

The trek to Kedarnath is an ultimate test of one’s physical endurance as well as spiritual faith. Carry necessary medication, first-aid, wollen clothes etc. before you embark on the trek.

One cannot explain the sheer joy of witnessing the Jyotirlinga at Kedarnath. There are 12 jyotirlingas across India. These are considered especially potent sites where Lord Shiva’s essence remains highly focalized. In fact, it is believed that the spiritually advanced amongst us would be able to witness the intensely divine radiation that pierces earth from these Shivlingas.

Also, Kedarnath forms the chief among the five temples clustered together as Panch Kedar. Panch Kedar Temples are said to have been built by Pandavas so as to seek reparation for their committed sins in the Kurukshetra war. It is believed that a certain body part of the bull whose form Lord Shiva wore as to disguise himself from the five brothers appeared at each of the five spots. The bull is said to have dived into the ground at Kedarnath, and its exposed hump left the remnant of Shivlinga on the surface.

After procuring blessings of Lord Shiva at Kedarnath, one may proceed to trek downwards so as to reach the base-camp well before dusk. This is because there is not much provision for accommodation near the sacred premises of the Temple.
Day 9 : Sitapur – Badrinath (230 km / 9 hr)

After a blissful darshan of Kedarnath, we will move towards our next destination at Badrinath. Along the scenic road-trip we will halt at three confluences of Panchprayags at Karnaprayag, Nandprayag and Vishnuprayag and the Narasimha Temple at Joshimath. At Karnaprayag, the waters of rivers Pinder and Alaknanda merge. At Nandprayag, one gets to witness the holy merger of Mandakini and Alaknanda. At Vishnuprayag, Alaknanda meets Dhauliganga.

The sacred town of Joshimath rests along the banks of Dhauliganga and Alaknanda. It carries one of the four maths established by Adi Shankaracharya. Its name Joshimath evolved out of this ‘Jyotirmath’. Narasimha Temple is another of its pilgrim attractions. One interesting feature is noticed in the idol of Narasimha, the fierce form of Lord Vishnu. Its hand keeps getting withered away. It is believed that on the day the hand is totally withered away, the entire valley would be destroyed and the gods would take abode at Bhavishya Badri.

Once we reach Badrinath, we will have you check-in at the hotel for overnight stay.

Day 10 : Badrinath – Pipalkoti (80 km / 4 hr)

Indeed, only the blessed amongst us can enjoy the holy morning pooja of Badrinarayan. One ought to take a holy dip in the waters of Tapt kund before worshipping at Badrinath Temple. Located at a whopping altitude of 3,133 m above sea level, Badrinath Temple is considered prime among the Vishnu shrines in the whole world. In fact, Skanda Purana exalts its position to be the highest amongst all Vishnu shrines in the universe. The peaks of Nar, Narayan and Neelkanth form the idyllic backdrop of Badrinath. It is said that the region used to be covered with forests of wild berries (Badri) in the past, its name of Badrinath a remnant of the same.

The temple has idols of Lord Ganesh, Goddess Lakshmi, Narada Muni, Kubera, Nar-Narayan, Hanuman etc. You can procure the holy water (Abhishekam ja/Charnamrit) from the temple premises. At Brahma Kapal situated nearby, religious rites meant to bring in peace to one’s deceased ancestors are performed. Brahma Kapal is a raised platform upon the holy banks of River Alakananda. One can also witness Narad Kund, the recess in River Alaknanda from which the idol of Badrinarayan is said to have been discovered by Adi Shankaracharya. After one enjoys the holy environ of Badrinath to heart’s delight, you may proceed to enjoy the many wonders of India’s last village of Mana.

A stroll across the many contours of Mana village makes one feel as if one has landed in one of the prehistoric sites of Mahabharata era. The many remnants of the epic strewn across its terrain act as catalysts for the same. Take Bhim Pul for instance. The natural bridge formed of a boulder across the gushing waters of Saraswati is attributed to Bhim, the strongest of Pandava brothers.

Did you know that Vyas Gufa revered as the site in which the epic of Mahabharata was written is in this very village? One also comes across Ganesh Gufa, the seat at which lord Ganesha was seated transcribing the words of Ved Vyas.
