Haridwar to Kedarnath Badrinath Yamunotri Gangotri (char Dham) by Force Urbania
10 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Haridwar to Char Dham tempo traveller circuit is the ultimate Hindu pilgrimage, covering Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath in one grand loop through the Garhwal Himalayas. This 10-12 day journey covers approximately 1,200 km of mountain roads, starting from Haridwar and traditionally following the west-to-east sequence: Yamunotri first, then Gangotri, Kedarnath, and finally Badrinath. The circuit takes your group through five sacred river confluences (Panch Prayag), past the mighty Tehri Dam, through the ancient town of Uttarkashi, and over high-altitude passes with views of peaks exceeding 6,000 meters. Each temple has its own character — Yamunotri's hot springs, Gangotri's glacier-fed Bhagirathi, Kedarnath's dramatic stone temple at 3,583m requiring a 16 km trek, and Badrinath's colourful shrine beside the Alaknanda with Mana village (the last Indian settlement before Tibet) nearby. Groups should book helicopter services for Kedarnath well in advance. Night halts are typically at Barkot, Uttarkashi, Guptkashi, and Joshimath/Badrinath.
In short
A force urbania from Haridwar to Kedarnath Badrinath Yamunotri Gangotri (char Dham) costs ₹25 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 1200 km and about 10-12 days circuit of driving.

A one-way drop is charged at the same per-km rate as a round trip, because the vehicle still returns to base empty afterwards.
