Char Dham Yatra Family Package From Delhi: Journey to Divinity

Your sacred journey begins as you meet our driver at your designated location in Delhi—whether the airport, station, hotel, or home—and embark on a picturesque drive to Haridwar, the "Gateway to God." Upon arrival, check into your hotel and unwind.

As the day ends, proceed to the Mansa Devi Temple, located on the Shivalik hills, believed to grant devotees' wishes. Further, enjoy Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri. Here, the glistening river seems to be floated under millions of floating lamps while the chanting sounds create an otherworldly environment.

A spiritual bastion with all the trimmings of sanctity, this city lies at the holy bank of River Ganga as a component of the sacred seven cities for Hindus. 

There is so much deep spirituality mixed with fantastic vibrant religious festivals going on all year round, such that chaotic and serene blend within the very self of this holy city leaves all pilgrims entranced, ensuring your first day to be so divine and perfect.

You spend overnight here in Haridwar.

You take an early start to move to the serene landscape of Barkot, away from the spiritual ambiance of Haridwar. Enroute, pass through winding mountain roads and valleys in verdant colors. On the way, detour to visit the beautiful hill station of Mussoorie, referred to as the "Queen of Hills."

Stop here and enjoy the stillness of serene Mussoorie Lake while absorbing breathtaking views that the surrounding hills create. This is also before visiting the showpiece, magnificent Kempty Falls-a spot that forms the ultimate perfect postcard scenario of water cascading over an unbroken layer of emerald green vegetation, giving scope for refreshing in the mist.

You would arrive in Barkot, an old town surrounded by mountains with snow-cloaked peaks and lush green meadows as the gateway to Yamunotri. You would get checked into your hotel, and the serenity of the place would prep you up for adventures ahead.

Wake up early to the fresh mountain air and have a wholesome breakfast. Pack yourself and set off today on this sacred journey by road from Barkot to Jankichatti or Phoolchatti, from where you would be trekking to the holy shrine of Yamunotri. The scenic view on the path and the tranquility of divinity await you ahead.

The 6-kilometer trek, which can be undertaken either on foot or horse or Doli at your cost, will take you through those very beautiful landscapes and lush forests and a spirit that surrounds the entire journey. When reached to Yamunotri, there is a good view of the temple of Goddess Yamuna. 

Take a refreshing bath in the healing warm waters of Jamunabai Kund and be blessed with deep Darshan of Yamunaji to seek peaceful solace for spiritual satisfaction.

Now, come back by the same trek and by road from Jankichatti and head towards Barkot with all memories and experience about your deep spiritual connection journey.

After a refreshing night at Barkot, begin the day with a delectable breakfast and get ready for a beautiful drive to the town of Uttarkashi, renowned for its deep spiritual significance and serene surroundings. The roads wind through picturesque valleys, allowing one to glimpse the lush greenery and the mighty Ganges as it flows gracefully along the landscape.

Upon reaching the city of Uttarkashi, check into the hotel and retire for a while. Later on, visit one of the very sacred temples named Kashi Vishwanath dedicated to Lord Shiva. Here, the beautiful temple, established on the holy banks of river Ganges, encourages deep reflection as well as devotees.

Uttarkashi, often considered as the "Varanasi of the North," has the same spiritual appeal and is surrounded by several ashrams and temples. The centuries-old town brings out an environment of serenity and spiritualism. Being situated by the holy river Ganges doesn't help matters.

Early morning for an intense day of spiritual communion. After a hurried breakfast, leave for Gangotri, crossing Gangnani and taking a sacred dip in Garam Kund that is believed to have medicinal values. 

Then pass through the mesmerizing Harsil Valley, known for its breathtaking natural beauty, with Deodar trees on both sides and the white snow-clad mountains towering at a distance.

It's one of the holiest places for Hindus: Gangotri, where you are going to experience the divine energy of the Bhagirathi River, origin of the Ganges. Have a purifying dip in its crystal-clear waters; feel the river's ancient sanctity wash over you. 

Afterward, experience an intense Pooja and Darshan as you offer your prayers to Goddess Ganga in this serene and powerful setting. Spend some quiet time in the beautiful surroundings, absorbing all the peaceful vibes of this sacred place.

After an inspiring spiritually uplifting visit, tread back to Uttarkashi and take a peaceful rest along with reflecting over the transformation of the day.

Start the day with a break-fast. Thereafter, journey through sceneries of Himalayas. While you continue onward for Guptkashi-the mythical town; there are windy trails through Moolgarh and Lambgoan, showcasing little villages with fabulous mountain ranges and scenery which have the effect on the soul.

While traveling you must be drawn to the clean water of Mandakini River Tilwara from the massive river Kedarnath. Your travel, which with its rhythmic flow is a sight to behold, fills up your space, the drive being accompanied by peaceful and sacred rivers. This makes for a tour in itself almost a meditation experience as rivers guide you to your destinations.

Now it is the time to relax, breathe the pure mountain air. Visit ArdhNarishwar Temple that is another Shiva and Parvati place. Symbolizes divine union; it's quiet and tranquil environment for some inner reflection and prayers.

You should check in the hotel room and relax a little bit. All the travels through the day might have given you closer access to divinity.

Set out after an early breakfast, feeling a sense of oneness in anticipation to reach one of the holiest shrines in India. Your driver will drop you up to Sonprayag and then you'll be transferred to the local jeep for the relatively short drive from there to Gaurikund, which marks the starting point for your trek.

Here, one actually begins their journey through the trek of 19 kilometers to Kedarnath, which spans across rugged terrain, lush valleys, and peaks covered with snow. At each step, one is getting closer to the heart of the spirit of the Himalayas. En route, there is the sublime beauty of nature surrounding you all along as your faith and determination motivate you to continue climbing.

Upon reaching Kedarnath, take time to absorb the divinity at the Kedarnath Temple. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, this is the place where the experience of Darshan is considered to be truly moving, in the sense of a timeless bonding with the divine, nestled as it is between towering mountains.

After the spiritual experience, return via the same trekking route from Gaurikund or by means of the more rapid Helicopter Service. Whichever the case may be, the result will be leaving a mark inside your soul to never forget, for you, as a devoted traveler, surely would have explored the experience offered by Kedarnath.

Once you are in Guptkashi, relax and look back at your journey that not only traverses the mountains but also reaches out to the deepest of spiritual dimensions.

Overnight Stay: Guptkashi

Depart early this morning for the famous and powerful pilgrimage site of Badrinath. Along this route, you will take a journey through some of the roughest mountains in India, where each curve opens up views of the most majestic mountains surrounding you until you reach your holy destination.

Upon your arrival in Badrinath, you would take rest in a hotel for preparing the afternoons full of sacred experiences. The Tapt Kund is believed to have hot springs and serves as a sacred experience to wash yourself before being admitted into any holy shrine or place. As it heats both body and soul for further sacred journeys.

Proceed next to the majestic Badrivishal Temple for Darshan in order to respect Lord Vishnu in his form as Badrinath. The temple itself, surrounded by grand mountains, radiates divine serenity, attracting devotees from all corners of the world. Later enjoy the evening Aarti. This is a full-fledged ceremony that brings out sacred hymns in the air, accompanied by an ambiance full of divine vibrations.

Explore the nearby important places such as Brahma Kapal, where rituals for ancestors (Pinddan Shraddh) are performed, and the serene Mana Village, home to the famous Vyas Gufa (cave of Sage Vyasa) and Mata Murti Temple. 

Do not miss the Charanpaduka and Bhimkund, or the mysterious Mukh of the Saraswati River, three kilometers from the temple. These places carry deep spiritual significance and offer a sense of timeless connection to the divine.

Departing Badrinath with a spiritually recharged morning, proceed south to Rudraprayag, the sacred town where the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers meet in sacred matrimony. On your way, pass through the picturesque town of Joshimath and visit the powerful Narsingh Temple. 

Dating back to centuries, this temple is a quiet abode of pilgrims devoted to Lord Vishnu in his Narsingh incarnation and has a spectacular view of the mountains.

The paths leading from one place to another are long winding roads through valleys covered with lovely greenery and present refreshing scenery at each turn. Parallel rivers, Alaknanda and Mandakini, continually bring to mind divine forces at work in this land.

Upon reaching Rudraprayag, check-in into your hotel and relax yourself after the days' journey. Take some time to reflect about the confluence of Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers-an auspicious site bound to make one feel a deep communion with the godhead. Of the five Prayags it is one which has great sanctity. Symbolic of mighty union of two holy rivers in this confluence is considered great and sacred power.

From Rudraprayag, continue to your destination, Haridwar, stopping briefly at the pilgrimage town Rishikesh along the way. The word Hrishikesh is yet another name for this peaceful town lying between towering Shivalik Hills and waters of the sacred Ganga. A place of myth and legend.

Raibhya Rishi sat in meditation. Appearing to him was Lord Vishnu, and Lord Vishnu thus gave the place the name Hrishikesh. Little wonder, then, that Rishikesh has emerged as a magnet for the spiritually searching, yogis, and adventurers alike.

With the whole day in Rishikesh, visit its prominent landmarks. The most interesting suspension bridges are where one crosses the Lakshman Jhula and Ram Jhula, linking the Ganges River with an overview of flowing rivers and mountain landscapes. It is the place of temples and ashrams which give this space a resounding sound of serenity, where a person can dwell on the Word and pray for spiritual enlightenment and healing.

After the soak of divine energy at Rishikesh, move to Haridwar, and check into a hotel. In the evening, you can again go to Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri for the culmination of your pilgrimage with a memorable spiritual experience.

Bid farewell to the sacred land that has blessed your journey with a healthy breakfast at your hotel. Today is the day of returning to New Delhi, but you will take back the spiritual essence of Char Dham Yatra deep inside you. 

Leave Haridwar, a gateway to divinity, behind and take time to recall the experiences and temples that appeared with every step in the journey's serene beauty.

The memories of the holy shrines, quiet riverbanks, and chants of devotion would never fade from the heart as you travel along winding roads. So, this pilgrim journey didn't just get you to meet the temples alone; it would reconnect you to your inner being, immerse you in spirituality, and share the power of faith.

And it is here at New Delhi, you will get to treasure those sacrosanct memories because you carry your peace and fillment with it. Char Dham Yatra has not just been a trip through the Himalayas but of the soul - a spiritual expedition that will stand the test of time.

Char Dham Yatra Ends Here – Safe journeys, until next time.
