Arrival, Transfer & Riverfront Evening
Arrive at Dehradun Airport / Haridwar / Rishikesh Railway Station. Meet & greet by your representative and transfer to Rishikesh. Spend the evening at the Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat or attend a short yoga and meditation retreat. Overnight stay in Rishikesh.
Scenic Drive to Chopta via Devprayag & Rudraprayag
After breakfast depart for Chopta. En route, stop at Devprayag (confluence of Alaknanda & Bhagirathi) and Rudraprayag for photos and short breaks. Arrive at Chopta in the late afternoon; enjoy an evening walk in the meadows and witness the Himalayan sunset. Prepare your trekking gear for the next day's ascent.
Trek to Tungnath Temple & Chandrashila Peak
Early morning trek to Tungnath Temple (one of the highest Shiva temples) and continue to Chandrashila Peak for a 360° panorama of the Garhwal Himalaya (Nanda Devi, Trishul, Chaukhamba). Return to Chopta for rest. This is a moderate 4-6 hour trek; layered clothing and good trekking shoes are essential.
Chopta Exploration — Deoria Tal & Local Trails
Use this day for alternate valley trails: trek to Deoria Tal (sparkling high-altitude lake) or explore nearby alpine meadows and villages. Enjoy photography, birdwatching and local cuisine. Afternoon drive to Guptkashi. Deoria Tal is optional and depends on weather/fitness.
Gaurikund & Kedarnath Trek / Helicopter Option
Drive from Guptkashi to Gaurikund / Sonprayag — the base for the Kedarnath pilgrimage. Begin the Kedarnath Temple trek (one-way ~16 km) or choose the helicopter transfer (available seasonally, extra cost). Arrive at Kedarnath, check in and attend evening aarti at the shrine. Accommodation in Kedarnath can be basic; carry essential warm clothing.
Sunrise Darshan & Return to Valley
Early morning Kedarnath darshan and explore the Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary. After darshan and exploration, begin descent to Gaurikund / Sonprayag and onward drive to Rudraprayag for overnight. Helicopter return options also possible subject to availability.
Valley Trails: Srinagar (Garhwal) & Local Culture
Drive towards Srinagar (Garhwal), the cultural hub of Garhwal, and explore valley trails, old temples and local bazaars. Visit Sharda Mandir, local riverside ghats, and enjoy a relaxed walk through traditional Himalayan villages — an excellent contrast to high-altitude trekking days. Ideal for photography and cultural experiences.
