About the Do Dham Yatra
Two of the four dhams over seven days: Kedarnath, reached on foot from Gaurikund and slept beside at 3,580 m, and Badrinath, which you drive to. Haridwar and the Ganga Aarti at the start, Rishikesh at the end.
Mana, the last village before Tibet, sits three kilometres past Badrinath with Vyas Gufa and the Saraswati above it — included when conditions allow. Helicopter, pony and palki are arranged separately.
