Description section here has every detail about Gaumukh trek, starting from how to reach Gangotri and then Gaumukh, plus how to apply for permit etc…

This video is part of our 30 day Uttarakhad Char Dham yatra.

Distance from Gangotri to Gaumukh: This is a total distance of 18 km, with break up as…

Time Duration:We did this Trek from Gangotri to Gaumukh over 2 days, we stayed overnight at Bhojbasa.

Journey dates: 1st week of June 2019.

Permit process: You need to apply online for Gaumukh permit using the below weblink… swsuttarkashi.com/Permission/GangotriNationalPark

Application for permit does not mean confirmation of travel on that day, you still need to visit the forest office day before or few days before the journey and get the day of travel confirmation done.

You can do this either at Uttarkashi or Gangotri.

Charge for permit: You don’t have to pay anything online — when you reach forest office entry gate at Gangotri, you have to pay charge of Rs 150 per person.

Charge for Pony service: Government approved rate is Rs 1800 per person from Gangotri Forest entry gate to Bhojbasa and back next day.

Though Rs 1800 rate is fixed by government but on an average this costs Rs 2500 because they will charge extra for luggage plus if you are little over over normal weight they will charge extra. Consider this about Rs 2500 per person.

Guide charge: We paid Rs 2500 to our guide, Ideally you should fix your guide day before the journey, if you want only porter you may get it at Rs 2000 for the complete journey.

In our case Guide demanded Rs 2500 for his service then Rs 1000 extra for his boarding and lodging — we paid Rs 3500 to him for this 2 day journey.

In this route most guides work as Guide cum porter but still you should clarify this with the guide.

Food availability: You can carry your own food or if you want to locally buy, you will get Maggie with tea at Chirbasa.

Food at Garhwal Mandal vikas Nigam Guest house Bhojbasa- They serve good and tasty food, though options are limited, only veg food available.

Dal, Bharta or Bhindi average one person serving costs Rs 170 to Rs 190.

Tea in morning — you can get it at 6 am in morning at Bhojbasa.

Places to stay between Gangotri to Gaumukh: Only place where you can stay is Bhojbasa, there are 2 options there GMVN, you need to do online booking. There is no place to stay at Gaumukh.

Per person stay cost Rs 350 excluding food.

Other option is there is a ashram near GMVN, you can stay there as well at cost of Rs 350 per person. This cost at Ashram includes food cost, they serve langar there.

Electricity at Bhojbasa — There is no electricity over there, GMVN guest house has a generator which they run every day evening for one and a half hour.

Mobile network: You will get mobile network only for 2 to 3 km during the start of the journey, then no network, even BSNL network was not there.

If there is some emergency, GMVN people liasons with the Army there and communicates wirelessly with Gangotri.

Things to carry: Enough woolens, raincoat, oxygen cylinder, you can get oxygen cylinder from gangotri medical shop by paying Rs 600 and if it is not used they will deduct Rs 100 or 200 and return the balance money.

Its not compulsory to carry oxygen cylinder but just on a safe side.

Should you have any other query, please read through frequently asked questions below.

FAQ — Can i travel from Gangotri to Gaumukh and then come back on the same day to Gangotri.

Answer — Yes you can do that, as i did the same 6 years back when i went there with my wife but you need high physical fitness and good stamina. Though it is not advisable, as by the time you reach back Gangotri it will be dark.

Can i start trek early morning at 4 am?
Answer -No, Forest department allows entry from the gate at 6 am, to reach Forest entry gate you should start from you hotel or guest house at Gangotri at 5.30 am or 5.15 am…

Can i travel to Gaumukh in winters?
Answer — No — You can go there during May to Oct period only, during winters Gangotri National park is closed.

Benefit of taking guide?
Answer — He can guide you about danger zone, and give you good company. They are not professional guides, they were porters at some point of time and now have graduated themselves to guide.

Best time to travel to Gaumukh?

Answer — Mid august to end september. May and October will be cold. Though you can travel any time between May to Oct but avoid Monsoon time between June to July.

Is travel on Pony safe?
Answer — To my mind it is not advisable, because if you slip from Pony, it may badly hurt you or there may be a casualty too because it is steep below and passage is also small…

Though the number of travelers per day is limited so there is no crowd there but i will still suggest try walking down and you will love the journey.

Complete Guide Shri Kedarnath Dham Yatra | Sonprayag to Kedarnath JI 17 km | EP 13


This video has every detail about the Kedarnath ji ki Yatra. This is the 5th Jyotirlinga of Lord Shiva. This video is a summary of 2 day travel. We started the yatra from Sonprayag and went to Shri Kedarnath Dham and came back to Sonprayag. We did night stay near Triyuginarayan temple.

During my travel there in May 2019 — I noticed Vodafone and BSNL have network coverage at Kedarnath Dham.

Imp information:
There is a cloak room at Sonprayag, i showed that in previous episode Bhiri to Triyuginarayan.

Later on i realised walking on Galcier or snow was risky, i should have avoided, i will strongly suggest you to avoid walking at areas where there is a slope, just a slight miss and one will fall and this may be life threatening.

Following is the summary of distance to be traveled in this yatra.

Sonprayag to Gauri kund: 5 km, Rupees 20 per person on jeep.

Gauri Kund to Kedarnath ji: 16.5 km.

Base camp is 1 km short of Shri Kedarnath temple. Garhwal mandal vikas nigam has their Guest house and tent facility at Base camp.

While its not impossible to go and come back in a day to Sonprayag but difficulty level is high especially if you don’t have high energy level.

Services for travel to Kedarnath ji:

You can take helicopter services that cost around 6000, this can vary between 5000 to 8000 depending upon the distance from Sonprayag. Flight time from a place near Sonprayag to Kedarnath ji is 6 to 8 minutes.

Helipad is at a half a km from Shri Kedarnath Temple.

If you want to hire a porter or a person with a basket or if an old person wish someone to carry him on Doli, these facilities are readily available.

Pony: Yes you can travel on Pony too — charges Rs 2500 one side, if you decide to walk down and mid way feel that you need to take pony for this travel, then you can still get Pony for rest of the journey.

In my suggestion: It’s better to walk down, only thing you should be physically fit to do this trek of 17 km, as some places the trek is steep.

Best time to travel to Kedarnath ji — 15th August to 30th September.
Avoid travel in the month of May because its crowded.

Note: Try to book at Garhwal mandal guest house, there accomodation is neat and clean in comparison to other facilities available there. You can do the booking by visiting their website. gmvnl.in/newgmvn/index.aspx

We went there without any pre booking, it was May month we had to pay rs 4000 for double occupancy room, though that could accomodate 4 people as well. In fact demand for room in May month is much more than supply.

Things to carry: You can carry food, water bottle or just anything else you want to carry because food, water and everything else is expensive on the yatra route. For example a glass of Lemon water would cost Rs 20. A water bottle on the yatra route would cost Rs 50.

If you want to eat Maggi it would cost Rs 80 or so.

……………………………………………………………………………………….
Biometric registration: Initially i was wondering what is the need for Biometric registration when no body is actually checking it at the entry gate and exit gate.

My take on this: It helps Government know the names and addresses of people who were doing Yatra during a particular time of the month...At the time of registration they ask you about number of days for which you want to travel. There is no hard and fast rule that you should follow that only…

One reason of course is to keep information about people who are travelling and other resaon is that if there is a mishappening on the yatra route and government wants to give some compensation, they can use this database for reference purpose.

Though exact number of people travelling on yatra route cannot be ascertained but this can work as an indicator.

Hope you are enjoying watching our Uttarakhand Char Dham yatra series, if you have missed watching any episode, i will suggest you to look at the playlist.

Should you have any query about this yatra route, please feel free to write your query in comments below.
Night stay options for going to Shri Kedarnath Dham:

Sonprayag: Very crowded place, i will not recommend you to stay at this place.

Gaurikund: 5 km from Sonprayag, very crowded place, you should avoid staying here over night.

night stay option 5 or 10 km before Sonprayag: Yes there are many guest houses which are 5 or 10 km short of Sonprayag.

Triyuginarayan: Good option 13 km from Sonprayag, but you should do booking at GMVL at Triyuginarayan, there not not many guest houses at this place, i mean the neat and clean ones.

Thanks for your time.

Hidden Treasures


This final video of our Kartika parikrama 2015 consists of highlights of the many places in Sri Vrindavan dhama that we visited. No doubt all devotees who participated hold memories of that month very dear to their hearts. We are grateful to Ananta Vrindavan dasa for capturing the special moments of the parikrama on video. No doubt so are the many Vaisnavas around the world who eagerly followed our sacred journey around Vrindavan through his work. We invite all such devotees to join our parikrama next year! Sastra speaks unequivocally about the importance of visiting the places of Lord Krsna’s pastimes:

“Certainly no means of perfection is superior to the worship of Sriman Madan Gopala’s lotus feet. That worship yields results far beyond what one could expect. It should be performed mainly through nama-sankirtana, along with reverence and affection for the many places of Sri Gopala’s pastimes, places which one should regularly visit.”

[ Sri Brhad Bhagavatamrta, Volume Two, Chapter One, Texts 104 – 105 ]

The Forest Of Talavan


Talavan is one of the12 major forests of Vrindavan. Nestled in the paddy fields of Talavan is a beautiful temple dedicated to Lord Balarama, who killed the ass-demon Denakasura there. We enjoyed a wonderful day at Talavan having long kirtans and recounting the numerous pastimes that took place in that transcendental abode.

Христианский фильм «вера в Бога» Как верить в Бога, чтоб приобрести Его одобрение

Юй Цунгуан проповедует Евангелие Церкви Всемогущего Бога. Чжэн Сюнь, соработник в местной домашней церкви, спасает его, когда тот пытается избежать ареста китайской полицией. После этого он неоднократно беседует с Чжэн Сюнем и другими о том, что такое вера в Бога, как верить, чтобы обрести Божье одобрение, и о прочих аспектах истины. Эти истины в итоге помогают Чжэн Сюню и остальным разрешить давнюю путаницу и затруднения, позволяя им понять истинный смысл слов «вера в Бога» и освобождая их сердца.
