Kedarnath Trek Overview

Situated amid the beautiful mountainous region of the Garhwal Himalayas in Uttarakhand, India, lies the sacred town of Kedarnath. The remoteness and peaceful atmosphere of this place has religious value for Hindus. They believe that Kedarnath is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas where Lord Shiva manifests himself in divine light form. The temple is said to date back about a millennium after it was constructed under Adi Shankaracharya with an altitude of 3,583 m (11,755 ft). Surrounded by snow capped mountain peaks, pure rivers and rich green forests make the area an even more divine setting. Kedarnath being the center of pilgrimage that takes an exhausting journey through mesmerizing sceneries in search of blessings from Lord Shiva makes it one of the favorite destinations for the religious worshippers as well as natural admirers.
