THE DESTINATION

About Kedarnath Temple

Kedarnath Temple is one of the most sacred Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, located in the Garhwal Himalayas near the origin of the Mandakini River at an altitude of about 3,583 metres (11,755 ft). It is an important part of the Char Dham and is also among the five sacred temples of Panch Kedar.

According to Hindu mythology, the temple was originally built by the Pandavas after the Mahabharata war and later revived by Adi Shankaracharya. Surrounded by majestic snow-covered Himalayan peaks, Kedarnath attracts thousands of pilgrims and trekkers every year who undertake a challenging trek of around 16–18 km from Gaurikund to seek blessings and experience the spiritual beauty of the Himalayas.
