Re: Delhi to Badrinath and Kedarnath This is an interesting thread! I will search for more threads on these destination to see if I can gather more information.
I'm planning to drive to Delhi from Bangalore starting October 14. I will have about 15 days on hand till October 29. I guess I will not be able to make it to Leh this year so I'm planning to take family around for some pilgrim places around and at the same time if I can enjoy the drive around these places. One more objective is to get my kid to play with some snow if I can do it for him, I hope I will have good chances in October end for this.
I have following places in mind after looking at this thread. If HVK and other folks here help me plan this one of the greatest trips of my life, It will be great help.
Hardwar
Hrishikesh
Badrinath
Kedarnath
Gangotri
Yamunotri
Hemkund (if possible)
Feel free to suggest places to this list if you think its worth going
I assume the road condition is been improved now compared to a few years back, it shouldn't be a big trouble to drive around this area and with better roads, we can save some time as well.
I'll also start searching for the best timing around these places since I read temple (Kedarnath) will be closed by end of October or so, need to check we are at right place at right time.
If I can lay out the plan well in advance, I can also deal with booking the places without much trouble, please feel free to share information on places to stay and wonderful roads to drive around, I wouldn't mind driving couple hundred kms for better places and roads.
As of now, the plan is to take my parents, wife and a kid with me so I want be able to get much adventurous here. However, I'll come back for a few reasons pending for quite sometime (Enfield ride to Leh, Car drive to Leh, Gangotri, Gaumukh, Tapovan trekking/camping and last is to either drive or ride Himachal regions that ADC and HVK sir are driving, I will stop here, the list is never ending).
Thank you. |
