Kedarnath is a beautiful tourist destination located in Garhwal, Uttarakhand. While going on Kedarnath Yatra, you need to walk from Gaurikund, which offers surreal beauty and mythological importance at the same time.

It is believed that Pandavas meditated at this place to seek forgiveness from Lord Shiva for killing their own blood. Lord Shiva did not want to forgive Pandavas so easily. He was hiding in this jungle in the form of a bull. One day Arjuna discovered that bull to be Lord Shiva, and while escaping from the Pandavas, Lord Shiva jumped inside the earth, and the hump of the bull came out at this place. This is why in this place hump of a bull is worshipped.

Thus both the pilgrims and trekkers visit this place. The cost of Kedarnath Yatra varies on the mode of transportation you choose. There are three ways to reach Kedarnath from Gaurikund.

  • By trek: When you decide to do Kedarnath Yatra by trek, you need to get down to the nearest railway station or airport and take a cab to Gaurikund. From here you need to walk. The Kedarnath Yatra cost of this route is quite low as compared to Helicopter and palki services.
  • By Helicopter: If you are unable to walk, you can also take Helicopter services from Phata, Guptkashi, Sersi and Sitapur. It is quite costlier, but it saves your time and energy. Get down at either Rishikesh or Haridwar and take a cab to the location for a further helicopter on.
  • On Palki: Here, you need to take a palki or pony from Gaurikund to Kedarnath. This way is comparatively cheaper than a helicopter and a bit costlier than the trek one. You need to pay a certain amount to the porter or mule person who will take you to the top, and you need not walk.

So, basically, it depends on the way you reach Kedarnath. We at Manchala Mushafir provide the best Kedarnath Yatra cost that is affordable and tries to offer premium services on the given budget. The package can further be customized based on your requirements. The cost will also vary as per your group size. The bigger the group size, the less expensive your trip becomes.
