Rishikesh to Kedarnath by Force Urbania
10 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Rishikesh to Kedarnath tempo traveller pilgrimage is a soul-stirring journey from the Yoga Capital to one of the holiest Jyotirlinga shrines, perched at 3,583m in the Garhwal Himalayas. Travel along the Ganges and then the Mandakini River via NH7, passing through Devprayag — where the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda unite to form the Ganga — and the confluence town of Rudraprayag, where the Mandakini joins the Alaknanda. The road winds through terraced hillsides, suspension bridges, and tiny Garhwali villages where locals offer chai and maggi. Your tempo traveller reaches Sonprayag, from where shared jeeps ferry pilgrims to Gaurikund (the trek base). The 16 km trek from Gaurikund to Kedarnath passes through lush valleys, waterfalls, and alpine meadows before revealing the ancient stone temple with the towering Kedarnath peak (6,940m) and Chorabari Glacier behind it. Helicopter services from Guptkashi or Phata are available for those who prefer to skip the trek. Groups typically halt overnight at Guptkashi, which has the revered Vishwanath Temple.
In short
A force urbania from Rishikesh to Kedarnath costs ₹25 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 230 km and about 8-9 hours of driving. Fuel and an experienced driver are included; tolls, parking and state permits are billed at actuals. 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.
