DoDham(Kedarnath & Badrinath) Yatra
The 2 Dham Yatra refers to a pilgrimage to two of the four sacred sites in the Char Dham Yatra of Uttarakhand—commonly Kedarnath and Badrinath. This journey combines spiritual devotion with the exploration of the serene beauty of the Himalayas, making it a deeply fulfilling experience for pilgrims and travelers alike.
Kedarnath, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is situated at 3,583 meters and is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, holding immense significance in Hindu mythology. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks and lush valleys, the Kedarnath Temple is a marvel of ancient architecture. The journey to Kedarnath starts from Gaurikund, involving a 16 km trek, which can also be covered by ponies, palkis, or helicopters. The temple exudes divine energy, offering peace and spiritual solace.
Badrinath, dedicated to Lord Vishnu, is nestled at 3,300 meters in the Chamoli district. It is one of the holiest Vishnu temples and is part of both the Char Dham and the smaller Chota Char Dham circuits. The temple’s backdrop features the stunning Neelkanth Peak, and nearby attractions include Mana Village, the last Indian village before the Tibet border, and Tapt Kund, a natural hot spring.
The 2 Dham Yatra is ideal for those with time constraints or physical limitations who wish to experience the sanctity of these sacred shrines. The best time to undertake this yatra is between May and June or September and October, ensuring pleasant weather and open access to both temples. This journey offers a unique blend of spirituality, adventure, and natural beauty.
