It is 38 km from Rudraprayag surrounded by high peaks and thick forests. The temple houses a regally bejewelled idol of Maa Hariyali Devi who is also worshipped as Bala Devi and Vaishno Devi.

Agastyamuni
About 23 km from Rudraprayag, in the glorious valley of Mandakini lies the popular town of Agastyamuni - a miniature paradise. Here, on the banks of the murmuring deep blue Mandakini sat the great sage Agatyamuni in deep meditation. The Agastya temple honours the great sage, is an ideal place to relax and for fishing on the banks of the river.

The town is also a base for Pawan Hans helicopter services to Kedarnath temple and back during the summer months.

Guptkashi
Steeped in legend and lore, the scenic town of Guptkashi is an important town on the routes to Kedarnath and Madhyamaheshwar. Here, in sylvan surroundings came Shiva to hide from the Pandavas who were following him to seek redemption for their sins. To escape detection, the Lord lived incognito and the town has been named Gupt (hidden) Kashi ever since. The ancient temples of Vishwanath, Ardhnareshwar and Manikarnik Kund are the main places of attraction in Guptkashi.

Ukhimath
Everywhere the eye wanders there is pristine loveliness. In the far distance the snow-clad peaks of Chaukhamba and other mountains appear near yet so far. One can see the lovely Madhyamaheshwar Ganga with its emerald banks. Cradled in these picturesque surroundings is the enchanting village of Ukhimath. Ukhimath is the winter seat of Rawal Sahib of Kedarnath and its pujaris. The two great temples of Chandra Sekhara Mahadev and Ardha Narishwar dedicated to Lord Vishwanath the presiding deity of Varanasi are located here.

Kalimath

The Siddha Peeth comprises of temples made of wood and iron surrounded by several smaller ones made of stone dedicated to different deities - Mahalaxmi, Mahasaraswati, Gauri Shankar Mahadev and Bhairav.

Sonprayag
43 km from Guptkashi, on the way to Kedarnath, Sonprayag is situated at the confluence of river Vasuki Ganga and Mandakani. The scene of two rivers in the exquisite mountain setting is a treat to behold. It is believed that a mere touch of the holy water of Son Prayag helps one to attain Vaikunth Dham or char-dham-yatra. This small sleepy place comes to life during yatra season when it buzzez with 'chattis' agencies, shops and coolies. One can drive 12.5 km to Trijuginarayan from here.

Trijuginarayan
Around 12.5 km drive from Sonprayag, through forests and orchards, the legendary village of Trijuginarayan lies on the ancient bridle path that goes down from Kedarnath to Gangotri. Here, countless centuries ago, the wedding ceremony of Shiva and Parvati took place. The fire 'Akhand Dhuni', around which the celestial couple repeated their vows still burns as remnants being fed through the ages.Pilgrims reverently smear the holy ash on their forheads.

Chopta
A slice of Alps in Garhwal. Situated at a height of 2,900 metres above sea level, Chopta, is really an astounding destination replete with splendour and awesome natural beauty. It bears a resemblance to Swiss Alps as it nestles on the green meadows amidst luxuriant rain forests. Chopta boasts of magnificent views of some major Himalayan peaks. The bloom of rhododendron flowers along the trek makes a heavenly path to Tungnath.

Tungnath
Tungnath, the highest shrine of Shiva among the Panch Kedar is at an elevation of about 3680 mts. The arms of Lord Shiva came out as per the Kedarnath myth at Tungnath. Enroute exotic varieties of rhododendrons, white flowres and shrub like trees can be seen in abundance. It is at a four kilometer trek from Chopta.
