12 Unforgettable Tourist Places to Visit in Uttarakhand
What to See and Do in the Land of Natural Beauty
Uttarakhand, bordered by Nepal and Tibet, and shadowed by towering Himalayan peaks, is full of unspoiled natural beauty. It's divided into two regions—Garhwal in the north, and Kumaon in the south. Ancient holy places, mountains, forests and valleys, and an abundance of trekking options are some of the attractions that make travel to Uttarakhand worthwhile. Check out these top tourist places in Uttarakhand for inspiration.
Uttarakhand is also an excellent place to get off the beaten track. If you're looking for fresh air and tranquility, you'll love some of these boutique Himalayan getaways .
Jim Corbett National Park
One of India's most popular national parks , Jim Corbett National Park is named after hunter-turned-conservationist Jim Corbett. It has dense forest and an array of wildlife, although tiger sightings aren't as common as some other places in India. The park can be explored by jeep or elephant safaris, which take place daily in the early mornings and afternoons. The Dhikala zone of the park is the most panoramic, with stunning valley views. It offers the best chance of animal sightings (which are unfortunately sometimes disappointing). If you're lucky, you might spot wild elephants.
- Location: About five hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Ancient Haridwar (the "Gateway to God") is one of the seven holiest places in India, and one of the oldest living cities. Located at the foothills of the Himalayas in Uttarakhand, it's particularly popular with Hindu pilgrims who come to take a dip in the holy waters of the fast flowing Ganges River and wash away their sins. The evening Ganga Aarti holds a special appeal.

Rishikesh, located not far from Haridwar, is as popular with western spiritual seekers as Haridwar is with Hindu pilgrims. Known as the birthplace of yoga, people flock there to meditate, do yoga, and learn about other aspects of Hinduism in the various ashrams and yoga institutes. Despite the growing number of visitors, the town's lanes and alleys retain an old-world charm. It remains a wonderful place to relax and unwind among nature.
- Location: 40 minutes drive northeast of Haridwar.

The hill settlement of Nainital, in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, was a popular summer retreat for the British during the time they ruled India. It features emerald colored Nainital (Naini) Lake and an action-filled strip called The Mall, lined with restaurants, shops, hotels, and markets. Enjoy one of the many forest walks, explore the surrounding area on horseback, or relax on a boat in the lake. This destination gets very crowded during summers, especially on weekends, due to its proximity to Delhi. Around Nainital, you'll find Jeolikote, Bhimtal, Ramgarh and Mukteshwar which are all less developed and quieter places to stay.
- Location: About 6.5 hours drive east of Delhi.

Mussoorie is another popular weekend destination for north Indians, as well as honeymooners. One of the main reasons for this is because it has a lot of facilities developed especially for tourists. Take a cable car to Gun Hill, enjoy a beautiful nature walk along Camel's Back Road, have a picnic at Kempty Falls, or ride a horse up to Lal Tibba (the highest peak in Mussoorie). Mussoorie also offers a superb view of the Himalayas. If you're looking for a quieter alternative nearby, check out Landour.
- Location: About six hours drive north of Delhi and an hour from Dehradun (Uttarakhand's capital). IRCTC offers a convenient two-night weekend rail tour package from Delhi to Mussoorie.

Almora, now the capital of the Kumaon region, was established as the summer capital of Chand kings in 1560. It attracts its share of foreigners who head to nearby Kasar Devi Temple, where Swami Vivekananda meditated. There are some chilled out places to stay in the area, such as Kasar Rainbow Resort and Mohan's Binsar Retreat, as well as inexpensive guesthouses with private cottages just outside Almora town. Around Almora, you'll find the Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary, Kausani (where Gandhi spent time writing his Bhagavad Gita treatise), Ranikhet and the Jageshwar temple complex.
- Location: About nine hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Valley of Flowers National Park
The remarkable landscape of The Valley of Flowers National Park in the Garhwal region comes alive with the monsoon rain. This high-altitude Himalayan valley has around 300 different varieties of alpine flowers, which appear as a bright carpet of color against a mountainous snow-capped background. It's a popular trekking destination, open from the start of June until the end of October.
- Location: About 15 hours drive northeast of Delhi, plus a trek.
Located high up in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, the Char Dham (four temples) mark the spiritual source of four holy rivers: the Yamuna (at Yamunotri), the Ganges (at Gangotri), the Mandakini (at Kedarnath), and the Alaknanda (at Badrinath ). Hindus consider a pilgrimage to the Char Dham to be very auspicious. Not only is it believed to wash away all sins, but it will also ensure release from the cycle of birth and death.

Uttarakhand even has a skiing destination! Auli lies on the way to Badrinath and has a three-kilometer long slope, gondola, chairlift, and Poma ski lift. For skiing, conditions are best from the last week of January to the first week of March. However, it's dependent on good snowfall, which is variable. If you're into trekking, the Kuari Pass trailhead is at Auli. This trek, which passes through Nanda Devi National Park, is one of the state's best and most accessible. Thrillophilia offers six-day guided trips from Haridwar . There are many other hiking trails around too.
Accommodation options in Auli are scarce but Devi Darshan Lodge is recommended if you don't stay at the popular government-run Garhwal Mandal Vikas Nigam Hotel (which offers ski programs). Alternatively, the Himalayan Abode Homestay near Joshimath is excellent, and the host is a skiing and snowboarding champion and coach. Another good option is Himalayan Eco Lodge .
- Location: About 13 hours drive northeast of Delhi, near Joshimath.

Magical Munsiyari, a small town surrounded by towering mountains in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, is paradise for mountaineers and trekkers. Blazing sunsets create a stunning backdrop of color-stained peaks there. However, the hiking and trekking routes are the biggest draws. Munsiyari is the base for the challenging nine-day Milam Glacier Trek , and the much easier two- to three-hour trek to Khalia Top is another attraction. The Tribal Heritage Museum, filled with artifacts from Munsiyari's trade with Tibet on the ancient salt route, is also worth seeing. Milam Inn , albeit basic, is the best place to stay in Munsiyari and it offers fabulous mountain views from the guest rooms.
- Location: About 16 hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Not to be confused with the Chopta Valley in Sikkim, Chopta lies between Kedarnath and Badrinath in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, at the entry to Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary. It attracts travelers who want to enjoy the great outdoors away from the crowds and development. Chopta is the starting point for treks to Tungnath temple (open from June to September) and Chandrashila summit. It's a short, yet scenic, moderate trek that can be completed in a day. Notably, the temple is the world's highest Shiva temple. Thrillophilia offers four-day guided trips from Haridwar.
- Location: About 10 hours drive northeast of Delhi, via Rishikesh.
It's likely that you've never heard of Kalap, a tiny remote village that's only accessible by foot, 7,500 feet above sea level in the upper Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. That's because it's totally off the tourist map. A responsible tourism project was established there in 2013 to help improve the livelihoods of the villagers. Kalap is an outstanding place to get away from it all and experience the simplicity of village life or go trekking along trails followed by nomadic shepherds.
- Location: About six hours north of Dehradun in Uttarakhand.

By: Karan Kaushik Published: Aug 16, 2022 04:00 PM IST
From the stunning Rawaai Valley in Yamunotri and the tumultuous Bhagirathi in Gangotri to the snowy peaks of Kedarnath and the gurgling Alaknanda at Badrinath, the Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand is a divine blend of nature and spirituality. Here’s a handy guide to planning one of India’s most important pilgrimages. By Karan Kaushik
Everything you need to know about planning the Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand
About the char dham yatra.
Nestled in the majestic Garhwal Himalaya, the four sacred sites of Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath form the Char Dham Yatra. Devotees from all corners of the country have been embarking on the arduous pilgrimage for ages now. The Char Dham Yatra is one of the most accessible pilgrimages of its kind in India.
All the four sacred sites are perched in the far reaches of the Himalayas at altitudes of over 10,000 ft. While the season for the pilgrimage extends from May through November depending on the Hindu lunar calendar, the months of May and June witness the biggest rush of pilgrims. All the four dhams are located at the end of four separate routes. You may choose to set foot on the four different journeys either in combinations of continuity or visit a few of them independently.
There are pilgrims who do all the four holy sites in one trip and then there are pilgrims who come especially for Kedarnath and Badrinath . Logistically and traditionally speaking, the order of the Char Dham Yatra is Yamunotri-Gangotri-Kedarnath-Badrinath.

The pilgrimage is both physically and mentally demanding, thanks to the high altitudes that may result in breathing issues and Acute Mountain Sickness . It makes sense to carry your own medicines, inhalers, adequate woollens, blankets, and other essentials if visiting in peak season. Resources tend to get stretched during this season. However, there is no dearth of decent accommodation and eateries.
To avoid any last-minute setbacks, it is advisable to book your Char Dham Yatra tour through a recognised travel agent. Most tour operators offer affordable Char Dham packages throughout the year. Given the unpredictability of Mother Nature, we’d also recommend undertaking the pilgrimage with a large group of friends, family, colleagues, and fellow devotees. It’s not only a safer option but also makes for a fun experience.

Sequestered in a deep cleft on the Banderpoonch Peak, Yamunotri has traditionally always been the first Char Dham destination. This is where the holy Yamuna River originates from. The prime attraction on the way to Yamunotri is the stunning Rawaai Valley. You can also stop at Barkot and Phul Chatti on your way to the temple.
The presiding deity at the Yamunotri Temple is River Yamuna itself. The sanctum sanctorum houses a black marble idol of Goddess Yamuna. There’s a famous rock right outside the main temple. This rock is known as Divya Shala and houses a hot water spring . This is considered the origin of the Yamuna river. If you wish to visit the technical origin, you’d have to trek a kilometre above the temple to Champasar Glacier next to Saptarishi Kund.

Overlooking the roaring Bhagirathi River, Gangotri — the source of the sacred Ganges — is nestled amidst jagged mountains at an altitude of 9, 980 ft. River Ganges, or Ganga as we Indians call it, is known as Bhagirathi in Gangotri. Its actual source is called Gaumukh, which is a snowy cave.
The Gangotri temple has a venerable history. It was built by General Amar Singh Thapa of the Nepalese army during the 18th century. The ruler of Jaipur Maharaja Madho Singh got the temple renovated in 1935. One of the main highlights of this temple is a stone slab called Bhagirath Shila, where King Bhagirath is believed to have meditated to bring the holy river to earth.

Perhaps the most popular stop of the Char Dham Yatra, Kedarnath is India’s northernmost Jyotirlinga. Perched at a height of 11,746 ft, the sacred shrine is steeped in myth and legend. It is said that Sage Adi Shankaracharya achieved samadhi here. The Kedarnath Temple stands in all its glory near the source of the river Mandakini. Pilgrims have to undertake a 14-km trek from Gaurikund to Kedarnath. Ponies, palanquins, and porters are also available for children and the elderly.
The way to the temple is steep for the first 10 kilometres. From Garur Chatti, the path to the temple straightens up. On your way to the temple, take a holy dip in the hot springs at Gaurikund. From Kedarnath, you can also visit Okhimath, which lies on the way to Badrinath. Other prominent attractions that pilgrims travelling to Kedarnath cover include Guptkashi, known for the temples of Ardhnarishwar and Vishwanathji, both forms of Lord Shiva.

The last point of the Char Dham Yatra, Badrinath is located against the backdrop of the Neelkanth Peak. By its side gurgles the Alaknanda River, while the twin mountains of Nar and Narayan encompass it. The Badrinath Temple stands at an altitude of 10,276 ft.
The temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, who has been depicted in a meditating position through the idol in the sanctum sanctorum. One has to visit Kedarnath before visiting Badrinath. If you plan to travel exclusively to Badrinath, you will have to visit the nearby Adi Kedareshwar temple first.
Best time to go
The four shrines are open from May to November. Come winters and the committee shuts doors to the temples, owing to heavy snowfall in the region. Monsoons (July-August) can be unpredictable and lead to heavy rains and landslides. The area has been witness to some of the worst floods in the history of natural disasters in India. This makes the time period from April to the first half of June the perfect time to embark on the Char Dham Yatra.
How to reach
If you are travelling from Delhi, reaching Haridwar by bus or train is the best option for you. From Haridwar, you’ll have to take a taxi or bus to Barkot, the nearest town to Yamunotri. The Char Dham Yatra begins in Yamunotri, from where you can head to Gangotri and Kedarnath, followed by Badrinath.
