The Do Dham Yatra takes pilgrims to two of the most revered destinations of Uttarakhand – Kedarnath and Badrinath Dham. Kedarnath worships lord Shiva and Badrinath lord Vishnu. Both the destinations are at high altitude and Kedarnath dham requires you to trek for 16 kilometers for Gaurikund to reach the temple. Those who wish to take the Do Dham Yatra can consider Badrinath Kedarnath Yatra by helicopter. For those with time constraints and physical limitations, undertaking the Yatra with a helicopter is the best option.
In general completing the Yatra takes 5-6 days by road. However, those who have time constraints, can complete the yatra in 3-4 days or even complete the yatra in the same day. The helicopter package is one of the most convenient ways to complete the Yatra in the most comfortable and hassle-free manner.

LIH Travel offers the best Do Dham Yatra by Helicopter packages that ensures you can have a comfortable yatra with no hassle. They have packages of 3N/4D and also same-day yatra packages.
