Dehradun to Yamunotri <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From here, you\u2019ll be starting your journey by reaching the state government helipad on Sahastradhara Road, Dehradun. Also, note that this would be your starting as well as the ending point of your journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll be giving all the details of do\u2019s and don\u2019ts by the staff.

Don\u2019t miss to pay your respects to the bull and the godly lingam of Lord Shiva. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you\u2019ll be visiting the ancient Triyuginarayan temple that is devoted to Lord Vishnu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is believed that the temple is built on the same place where Vishnu saw the wedding ceremony of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. You\u2019ll be staying for the night at Kedarnath because you\u2019ll also be witnessing the very famous Rudra Abhishek at the temple at 4 in the morning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_4_Kedarnath_to_Badrinath\"><\/span><strong>Day 4: Kedarnath to Badrinath <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, you\u2019ll be again taken to the Guptkashi helipad for the change of new helicopter at around 10:15 am and will be arriving at Badrinath helipad at 11:00 am.

The temple has taken care of the seating arrangements of all the devotees so that you can sit and watch all the Shringar rituals of the Holy Spirit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_5_Badrinath_to_Dehradun\"><\/span><strong>Day 5: Badrinath to Dehradun<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the last has come and\nyou\u2019ll be leaving from Badrinath Helipad at around 11:30 am and will be\narriving at your beginning point, Sahastradhara helipad by 12:30.
