Gouri Kund is believed to be the place where Gouri lived while carrying out practices and where Shiva finally admitted his love for her. Kedarnath is a scenic spot situated against the backdrop of the majestic Kedarnath range and is one of the 12 jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva. Legend has it that after winning the Kurukshetra war, the Pandavas sought the blessings of Lord Shiva for redemption. He eluded them repeatedly and finally took refuge at Kedarnath in the form of a bull. The remaining portions of Lord Shiva appeared at four other places and are worshipped there as his manifestations. These four places are Tungnath, Rudranath, Madhyamaheshwar, and Kalpeshwar. Kedarnath and the four above-mentioned shrines are known as Panch Kedar.

This is the last day of your tour. Morning after breakfast, check out from the hotel, then we will drive towards Dehradun via Rudraprayag. On route visit Rudraprayag Sangam & Devprayag Sangam, later drive towards Dehradun for drop with sweet memories.
