The religious significance of the trinity of gods – Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh – is unmatched in Hinduism as they are known as the creator, preserver, and destroyer.

It is believed among Hindus that visiting the holy abodes of Kedarnath and Badrinath wash away their sins and offer Moksha, or liberation from the cycle of reincarnation. Therefore, they want to visit these holy sites and carrying out the requisite rituals and prayers to cleanse their minds and bodies from negative energies.

Significance of Kedarnath Temple

Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the journey to Kedarnath Temple is a highly spiritual trip for Shaivites and other devotees. Perched at lofty heights of 3583 meters above sea level, the Kedarnath trip truly tests the endurance and faith of the pilgrims. The shrine holds immense spiritual significance in Hinduism, because not only it is one of the Char Dhams, it’s also one of the 12 Jyotirlingas. Established by the 8th-century saint Adi Shankaracharya, Kedarnath Yatra is also one of the most explored Char Dham destinations.

While you are in Kedarnath, you can visit a plethora of other sites nearby. Notable mentions include Gaurikund, Chorabari Tal, Samadhi of Adi Shankaracharya, and Vasuki Tal. And people especially love the trekking in Kedarnath on their Do Dham Yatra by Helicopter. Not only the trekking here is both a little challenging as well as rewarding experience, but the stunning snowy Himalayan vistas make the trip every bit worthwhile.

Significance of Badrinath Temple

Situated at a high altitude of 3100 metres and nestled in the serene Chamoli district, the holy town of Badrinath is home to one of the most sacred temples in entire Hinduism. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the Badrinath Temple is the final destination in a Chardham tour. The natural beauty around the temple is one of the major draws of the sacred Dham for it is surrounded by green alpine meadows and snowy mountains. Lakhs of devotees visit the abode of the Almighty every year to seek his blessings.

Apart from the Badrinath Temple, the region is home to numerous other religious sites, such as the Tapt Kund, a hot spring with some medicinal properties.

Health Advisory

Both Kedarnath and Badrinath Dhams are located between 10500 ft – 11500 ft surrounded by breathtaking sceneries. Kedarnath Dham is situated at 11500 ft. Since the duration of the Do Dham Helicopter Yatra is only one day, you won’t get much time to acclimatize yourself therefore you should always catch your breath and go slow. If you exert yourself, you may develop acute mountain sickness (AMS) which may affect the lungs and brain.

Some of the common high-altitude ailments include acute mountain sickness (AMS) which is a common type of mountain sickness that occurs after ascending to altitudes above 2500 m. Some of the symptoms that you may experience include breathing problems, nausea, vomiting, headache, loss of appetite, fatigue, weakness, difficulty sleeping, and dizziness. Another ailment includes High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE) which is a severe form of AMS. It is caused due to brain tissue swelling which may hamper the brain eventually. The illness often occurs at night and can even lead to death/coma within hours. Some of its symptoms include headache, fatigue, swelling of brain tissue, visual impairment, bowel dysfunction, bladder dysfunction, partial paralysis, and disorientation.

You may also experience High Altitude Pulmonary Edema resulting in respiratory failure because of the fluid accumulation in the lungs. HAPE typically starts at night (when you climb in high-altitude areas on the second night of climbing). This ailment progresses rapidly and in the worst cases leads to fatality within hours. Some of its symptoms include shortness of breath even while relaxing, bright red stained sputum, persistent dry cough, weakness, fatigue, congestion, drowsiness, chest tightness, and increased heart rate. If you’re young you will be more susceptible to this ailment.

Note: It’s highly advised to acclimatize properly on your Do Dham Yatra by Helicopter.

We booked with Udan Avition for our Badrinath and Kedarnath trip. Our Daada ji was also there and they went an extra mile to help him with his special needs. They assisted us with our helicopter ride and took care of all the arrangements. Overall, it was a very smooth experience with our Temple Darshan and sightseeing. 100% recommend!

The weather conditions in the mountains posed a challenge but their staff managed it pretty well. The temple visits and sightseeing were well-organised and went without any hassle. This helicopter tour is perfect for people who don’t like long treks.
