It is a widely known fact that Lord Shiva had manifested himself in the form of a Shiva Linga during the night of Aridra Nakshatra.
Read MoreIf you feel the need to pause and reconnect with your spiritual side, our 4 Days / 3 Nights Yamuna Pushkaralu Yatra from Delhi is designed just for you. This is not a normal trip. It also happens only when Jupiter enters Cancer. Starting from the heart of Delhi, we take you on a scenic journey through the misty mountains and holy towns of Uttarakhand. From the bustling riverbanks of Haridwar to the quiet, thin air of Yamunotri, this tour is a perfect mix of deep tradition and the calming beauty of nature.
In Indian tradition, the Yamuna is very much more than a river—she is the daughter of the Sun and the sister of Yamraj, the God of Death. It is also believed that a dip in her waters during the Pushkaralu period grants a person freedom from the fear of mortality and cleanses deep-seated karmic burdens. This 12-year time is also very special. People go to find peace, pray for family, and also feel very calm in the Himalayas.
Delhi → Haridwar → Dehradun → Mussoorie → Barkot → Janki Chatti → Yamunotri Temple.

Surya Kund is a hot spring near the temple. People also cook rice there and also take it as Prasad.
The trek is 6 km with steep parts. You can also take a pony or doli if you do not want to walk.
Mountain weather changes very quickly, so it is also very important to keep warm clothes and a raincoat. Barkot and Yamunotri can be very cold, mostly in the mornings and evenings.
Do rituals like Pinda Pradan and Tarpan to thank your ancestors and also get peace from Pitru Dosha.
The trip mostly takes about 4 days and 3 nights. You also visit holy places, see Haridwar Aarti, pass Mussoorie, and spend one day at Yamunotri.
