Avoid Mistakes While Coming #Kedarnath
Out of all dhams #Kedarnath demands most planning. Keep following points in mind while coming for Kedarnath
1) If one have trouble in walking, allergy to pony or mule or horse urine and dropping or time is short plan by Helicopter
2) A normal traveller takes only 7-8 hours to reach at temple from Gaurikund by walk. So walk patiently never rush while walking which could trigger gasping.
3) Avoid taking Pony or Horse from Sonprayag it will increase your journey by two hours. Take pony from Gaurikund or even start your walking trip from Gaurikund.
4) Start early in morning (5AM) from Gaurikund so that by Afternoon you can reach till temple. Have darshan and Stay overnight at GMVN facility at Temple and next day after darshan start for Gaurikund.
Remember if one is planning same day return then there is full chances he will reach Gaurikund by early evening or late evening in that case he will find difficult to get seat for Gaurikund to Sonprayag transfer. In evening huge line takes for transfer to Sonprayag. Secondly getting room becomes very difficult at Gaurikund as there are very few lodges at Gaurikund while footfall is around 4000 pilgrims in May ,June.
