The Chardham Yatra Uttarakhand is a 10-day sacred pilgrimage that takes you to the four holy shrines of Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath in the lap of the Himalayas.

The experience offers a perfect balance of spiritual fulfillment and the opportunity to witness the majestic beauty of the Himalayas, making it one of the most cherished spiritual journeys in India.
