Trek to Kedarnath

Finally, our trek was about to begin today. We were very excited.
At 4am, we left Sonprayag.

After waiting for two hours, we got taxi from Sonprayag to Gaurikund. They charged 20/- per person.
While we were in queue, I enjoyed the morning very much. There was a queue on the bridge, the mandakini river was flowing below it. The sky was changing color. It was very beautiful.

I would suggest you should stay in Gaurikund, so you can save your time.
There were all kinds of facilities on the trekking way like drinking water, tea, food, benches, dispensary and toilets. Roads were fine. You can easily do trek.
And the views were awesome.

We reached RAMBADA around 11:00 AM.
We were very tired and didnt have the courage to walk ahead. The rest of the way, we thought it appropriate to go by mule and they charged 1800/- (half way price).

Around 1:00 PM we reached the Top.

The mule dropped us 2kms before the Temple.
At 2:30 PM, we were in the queue and at 6:00 in the evening we were in temple.

We did some photography after Temple Darshan. We took a room to stay near the temple. They charged 2000/- per room. And the Thali was 150/-₹

You can stay in GVMV tents, charges 300/- per bed.
