Tour Packages for Kedarnath
Kedarnath Temple Darshan 2024: Because of the snow-covered grounds, this temple is primarily closed during the winter months. Every year, it only opens from April (Akshaya Tritiya) to November (Kartik Purnima, the fall full moon).
One of the most exquisite Char Dham temples is Kedarnath, which is encircled by snow-capped mountains and situated in the Himalayas close to the Chorabari Glacier, the source of the Mandakini River.
The closest roadhead to Kedarnath, Gaurikund, is about 14 kilometers away and is 11,755 feet above sea level. The village around the temple was devastated by the 2013 flash flood's turbulent waves and rocks that fell from the cliff faces. The stone hump inside the shrine is worth as much as the large rock that fell off the hill and stopped short of the temple, keeping it safe from avalanches and floods.
A lengthy visit to the Kedarnath temple should be included in your Kedarnath tour package. Check out and reserve one of the many Kedarnath packages that Swastik Holiday has to offer.
Location of Kedarnath
On an empty plot of ground along the Mandakini River in Uttarakhand, the township of Kedarnath is situated 223 kilometers from Rishikesh. Because of its stunning location, the surrounding Himalayan landscape, and the verdant meadows, the Kedarnath Yatra Tour Package is very well-liked and offers fantastic hiking and pilgrimage alternatives.
The Kedar Dome is 22,411 feet above sea level, and the rising Kedarnath mountain, which is 22,769 feet above sea level, surrounds the Kedarnath Temple from behind.
The Kedarnath weather and the months when the shrine is closed
Because of the intense snowfall, the Kedarnath Temple is closed in the winter. The palanquin and the festival deity of Kedarnath are taken to Ukhimath, which is close to Guptakashi, during the six months leading up to its closure, which is November through April. Priests and other temple personnel move to neighboring communities during this period.
Plan your vacation package to Kedarnath appropriately because of the city's monsoon-influenced subarctic environment, which features a pleasant and rainy summer and a harsh, snowy winter.
