Char Dham-The Sacred Trail
 
Up in the misty heights of the majestic Garhwal Himalayas that adorn the magnificent state of Uttar Pradesh, awaits a rejuvenating spiritual experience for the devout. Nestling in the lofty peaks are the four most holy pilgrimages of India-Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath, collectively referred to as the Char Dham (or four pilgrimage centres) of Hinduism.

Traditionally, the yatra (or journey) is done from the west to the east - starting from Yamunotri, then proceeding to Gangotri and finally to Kedarnath and Badrinath. Although Char Dham are highly accessible through network of motorable roads, arduous trails remain in the ancient sanctuaries of faith for a fulfilling experience.
