2. Pilgrimages used to be Strenuous and Tough
Hindus have been going on pilgrimages since time immemorial. In the early days these
pilgrimages were very harsh and rugged. There were hardly any facilities for
accommodation, decent meals or proper toilets. These conditions of hardship also
applied to the Chardham or four places of pilgrimage for the devout Hindus.
These are known as Chardham hotels. These facilities have been created to cater to
the pilgrims headed for the Char Dhams.
The Char Dham consists of Gangotri,
the place of origin for the Ganges,
Yamunotri, the origin of the River
Yamuna, Kedarnath, the earthly
abode of Lord Shiva and Badrinath,
the home of Lord Vishnu. It is only
recently that a hospitality group has
set up camps at different places in
India’s mountainous state of
Uttarakhand.

3. Excellent Infrastructure
The Char Dham hotels are big on
infrastructure. A total of eleven
functioning hotels or camps have
been set up in the State of
Uttarakhand including the four meant
for pilgrims headed for the four
important places of pilgrimage.
These four hotels or resorts or
camps are known as Chardham
hotels and they are located at
Joshimath for Badrinath, Guptkashi
for Kedarnath, Barkot for Yamunotri
and Harsil for Gangotri. With these
hotels the pilgrims headed for the
four places are at last able to enjoy
the basic comforts both to and from
the pilgrimage.

4. Accommodation & Dining
The Chardham hotels are in the
form of camps that ensure
optimum comfort for the tired
pilgrims headed for or returning
from the four places o f
pilgrimage. The facilities
provided at these
environmentally friendly hotels
are far better than one will find
anywhere else in the area. The
accommodation is provided in
all weather luxury cottage
camps with thatched roofs.
There are attached baths and toilets with running hot and cold water. The Char Dham
hotels serve piping hot multi-cuisine dining for the pilgrims. The food is vegetarian and
consists of dishes that are from South Indian, Gujarati and Marwari regions of the
country.

5. Services Provided to the Pilgrims
For the travel-weary pilgrims
hot water bottles are provided
at sun down at the Char
Dham hotels. For those
headed for Kedarnath the
pilgrims are provided
umbrellas during the arduous
trek. Full assistance is made
available for shrine visit as
well as the arrangements for
pony and palanquin where
required.
For the tired pilgrims the services of local masseurs are also made available at Barkot
and Guptkashi. Today the Chardham camps have redefined pilgrimage in the
Uttarakhand area of India. The accommodation facilities at these camps are world-
class and this attracts greater number of tourists each year.
