Exciting Kedarnath Journey Chapter 2 – Uttarakhand Travel Stories

7th July 2019

Early morning we started our journey to the place which was the main purpose of this journey, Kedarnath.  It took almost 9 -10 hours to reach Gaurikund from Rishikesh.

Gaurikund – Kedarnath

The Kedarnath temple is located on a height of 3,583 meters on the shores of the Mandakini river. The temple is directly not accessible by road. one has to do a 23-24km trek from Gaurikund to reach the holy site.

By the time we reached Gaurikund, it was almost 4 pm and we had to stay there. Next day, early in the morning, we started our Trek to Kedarnath Temple. It is mentioned as a 16 km by walk from Gaurikund to Shrine, but it’s typically more than what we see.

Steep and dangerous trek

It’s steep and dangerous. It took almost 12 hours for us to reach the Kedarnath Temple and it was almost 7 pm and the temple was closed for the day.

Disappointed

Disappointed, we had to wait till morning for Darshan of Shri Kedarnath Baba. We took a stay at the nearest lodge at the temple for the night.

Journey to Haridwar

While six of them started their journey from Hyderabad, myself started from Bangalore, and eventually,  we met at Delhi’s airport. Without wasting a lot of time in Delhi, we’ve boarded a bus to Haridwar and that is where our actual journey started. By the time we reached Haridwar, it was almost 4 pm and it was raining heavily there.

The city was enshrouded in a blanket of mist, while a naughty girl named rain sprinkled water all over the city. Though it was raining, we managed to book a car with a driver who can drive us to all the destinations.

Ganga Aarti and Ganga Snan

This was still Day 1 of our Journey and we found ourselves at the banks of the Holy river, and Haridwar ka paniGanga. By having Haridwar Ganga Aarti and Ganga snan in the evening, we further moved to Rishikesh and decided to stay for the night there.

What’s Next?

Next blog with a video will be on the journey to Kedarnath from Rishikesh which will be full of travel shots in the amazing and adventurous roads and mountains.

Bangalore to Adi Yogi Staue

Bangalore to Adi Yogi Statue Funny Travel Hindi Vlog

Watch and have fun by watching us having fun in this funny travel vlog, which I decided to make after seeing a good response on my first vlog which was unplanned and not scripted.

This Vlog was also unscripted, but this trip with my colleagues was planned by Puneet a month ago. I thought of making a vlog, that would be a memory in our lives, capturing as beautifully as we can (Me and Lalit) with our iPhones, and since this is the second vlog I tried my best to become a complete extrovert from being an introvert, and I loved the experience and the output which I took whole day and night to edit.

Bangalore to Adi Yogi Statue Travel Blog

Travel from Bangalore to Adi Yogi Statue located in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu was pretty smooth and fun. Finally, when we reached Adi Yogi Statue, we were mesmerized by its beauty and nature. Almost none of us slept the day before and I was struggling to keep my eyes open, and shoot the video, talk to the driver so that he shouldn’t feel sleepy, finally when we saw the Mahadev Adi Yogi statue, I felt all those efforts were worth it.

We had a great time at Adi Yogi Statue and every day, I meditate twice a day before sleeping and after waking up for 20mins, which I felt I missed a day breaking the continuity until we got to know that we are supposed to meditate in front of Dhyanalinga, which was completely unexpected and I felt immensely happy to meditate in such a holy place.

Traveling back to Bangalore was not as smooth as we expected it to be as we, unfortunately, had to take a different route which was full of dark with fewer lights, and at that time instead of making videos, I thought it better to be focused and be alert as after driving for some distance, Shikar was feeling sleepy, and Puneet took the responsibility of driving and he drove very nicely with confidence, maintaining a very good speed and brought us to Bangalore safely, needless to say, that we had fun in those tensed moments as well but overall it was a very good experience for all of us.

It was really fun travelling in car from early morning to late night from Bangalore to Adi Yogi Statue and from Adi Yogi to Bangalore within two thousand five hundred  rupees per person, which was mostly spent on car rental and the petrol. The next day, even though being fully tired, I have somehow gathered some energy and edited the video without taking any brakes till monday early morning and slept after keeping it for render, because I wanted to upload the video on monday itself as it’s considered as a favourite day for Mahadev Shiv Bholanath. 

Hope You like the video. Please do subscribe my YouTube  channel and stay tuned for more content.

My Coorg Trip Music Video

Hi guys, I am back with another blog with presenting my Coorg trip video from last year on my favourite track of SUPER-Hi x NEEKA – Following the sun.

 

When we were informed to start working from office after a long phase of work from home in September 2021, firstly, we thought of going to Pondicherry and work from there for 3days, but as we already visited it for twice, we decided to go to Coorg, as Varun (our ex-colleague) will be there for our support, as it’s his native.

 

All these discussions and decisions were made within an hour and the very next morning we were in Coorg, the most peaceful place in Karnataka which is also known as the Scotland of India. We had lots of fun in Coorg and had peaceful time in its amazing nature, we didn’t plan for any shoot as we just want to spend some time away from home, and that’s why we didn’t took our DSLR with us, so this video was made out of random footages shot on iPhone. Hope you like it.
