2. About Chardham –
Char Dhaam located in the picturesque Garhwali region of
Uttarakhand surrounded by Himalaya’s lofty peaks. The journey
including all four Dhaams, with Scenic drive of more than 1400
Km of hilly track, apart from this, Yamunotri has a pedestrian trek
of ~ 7 Km, while Kedarnath trekking is ~25 Km. The Yatra Starts
in peak of summers other than hills i.e.: in first week of May. So
apart from religious value the journey also offers a respite from
severe heat.
The Yatra is little bit difficult on account of two major factors, hilly
terrain, and northwest monsoon which arrive in state around mid
of June that makes the weather and road unpredictable.
Monsoon rains in the hills may cause small landslides and block
the roads for some time but simultaneously the monsoon covers
the mountains with lush green beauty.

3. Importance of Char-Dhaam Yatra:
Char Dhaam Yatra in India is one the most Favorite tourist destination

tourist mind set. As per our Indian Mythology, Pandavas travel in
search of austerity to get rid of their sins during wars of Kurukshetra,
and for the reason stated above they chose to go to the Himalaya
range. They travelled to the Char Dhaam (Four Abodes/Seats
Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri). These Dhaams are
situated in today’s state of Uttarakhand.
