One of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, located at 3,583 metres near the Mandakini River. The temple is approximately 500 metres from the Kedarnath helipad. Due to high altitude, pilgrims access Kedarnath via shuttle helicopter from Sersi, Phata, or Guptkashi. The present temple was established by Adi Shankaracharya. During winter, the idol is transferred to Omkareshwar Temple in Ukhimath.
One of the four original Char Dham Yatra, located at 3,133 metres on the banks of the Alaknanda River. Established by Adi Shankaracharya, this temple is reached by car from Badrinath Helipad. Pilgrims may optionally visit Mana Village, the last inhabited village before the India-China border. The temple remains open from late April to mid-November.
Sersi is the primary helipad for Kedarnath shuttle services. Our ground team manages check-in, breakfast, and shuttle boarding coordination. The shuttle flight from Sersi to Kedarnath takes approximately 7–10 minutes.
Dehradun is a 3-hour drive or 2-hour flight from Delhi. Our representative meets you at Dehradun airport and escorts you to the hotel. The next morning, proceed to Sahastradhara Helipad for your Do Dham helicopter Yatra.

It can be particularly convenient for senior citizens, families, travellers with limited time and devotees who prefer accommodation, meals, helicopter sectors and ground assistance arranged together.
The journey is coordinated from your arrival in Dehradun through the final return transfer. Our team follows passenger reporting, hotel transfers, helipad coordination, Kedarnath shuttle movement, darshan assistance and the Badrinath sector throughout the itinerary.
Before departure, passenger names, body weights, luggage requirements and travel documents are checked so the operations team can prepare the journey correctly. During the pilgrimage, ground support helps travellers move between helipads, hotels and temple-access points according to the day's operating schedule.
Accretion Aviation has been organising helicopter pilgrimages across India for over a decade. Based in Dehradun, we are a DGCA-compliant operator with a permanent ground presence at every helipad on the Do Dham and Char Dham circuit.

The Do Dham Yatra by helicopter covers Kedarnath and Badrinath, two of Uttarakhand's sacred Char Dham shrines. Accretion Aviation's package starts and ends in Dehradun and is planned over 3 nights and 4 days.
The current Accretion Aviation package displayed on this page is ₹1,75,000 per person for 3 nights and 4 days. Check availability and the final inclusions for your travel date before payment.
The journey starts from Sahastradhara Helipad in Dehradun. Airport or railway-station pickup and hotel transfer in Dehradun are included according to the package itinerary.
The package covers Shri Kedarnath Temple and Shri Badrinath Temple.
The package is designed as a 3-night/4-day journey, including arrival and briefing in Dehradun.
The package can reduce long road travel and includes ground assistance, making it convenient for many senior citizens. However, Kedarnath and Badrinath are high-altitude destinations, so travellers with cardiac, respiratory or other medical conditions should obtain appropriate medical advice before the journey.
The package currently allows 2 kg of luggage per passenger. Carry only essential items in the approved baggage because helicopter load limits are strictly controlled.
The standard passenger weight considered for the package is up to 75 kg per person. Additional charges may apply for weight above the prescribed limit, subject to aircraft load planning and operator policy. Please share accurate passenger weights at the time of booking.
The complete 3-night/4-day Do Dham package starts from Dehradun. Phata may be used as a base helipad for the Kedarnath shuttle sector depending on operations, but it is not the starting point of this full package.
Helicopter operations in Uttarakhand depend on weather, visibility, air traffic and operational permissions. The itinerary may therefore change, and passengers should keep reasonable flexibility in their onward travel plans.
Share your preferred travel date, number of passengers and passenger details with Accretion Aviation. Our team will check availability, explain the itinerary, inclusions, passenger-weight rules, payment schedule and applicable booking terms before confirmation.
The listed price is ₹1,75,000 per person for the 3-night/4-day package. Confirm the final inclusions, passenger-weight charges and any optional services for your selected travel date before making payment.
Yes, the current package includes the Kedarnath shuttle helicopter sector as part of the planned itinerary.
Same-day packages focus on completing Kedarnath and Badrinath in one day, while this package includes accommodation, meals, ground support and a slower 3-night/4-day itinerary designed for greater comfort.
Availability can be limited during peak pilgrimage dates. Booking earlier gives you a better chance of securing your preferred travel date, but final schedules remain subject to helicopter operations and weather conditions.
Yes. While the standard 4-day Do Dham itinerary is optimised for helicopter logistics and temple schedules, we can accommodate minor customisations such as extra nights at Kedarnath or Badrinath, special puja arrangements, or private charter groups. Contact our team at +91-9575340786 to discuss customised Do Dham helicopter packages.
If you miss a scheduled flight due to personal delay, our ground team at the helipad will coordinate the next available shuttle. However, missing flights may affect your darshan schedule and hotel bookings. We strongly recommend arriving at each helipad 30 minutes before the reported time. Weather-related delays are managed by our operations team at no extra cost.
The standard ₹1,75,000 price is based on twin-sharing hotel accommodation at Kedarnath and Badrinath. Single-occupancy rooms are available at an additional charge depending on hotel availability. Please request single occupancy at the time of booking so we can confirm availability and pricing before your Do Dham helicopter Yatra.
Mobile network coverage is limited at high-altitude dhams. BSNL has the widest coverage in the Garhwal Himalayas, followed by Jio at select locations. Airtel and Vodafone-Idea coverage is patchy. We recommend carrying a BSNL SIM or relying on hotel Wi-Fi where available. Our ground team carries satellite communication for emergencies.
Photography inside the main sanctum of Kedarnath and Badrinath temples is strictly prohibited. You can take photos in the outer temple courtyards and surrounding areas. Drones are not permitted near any temple or helipad due to DGCA regulations. Please respect local customs and follow instructions from temple authorities and our ground staff.
Yes. Private helicopter charters are available for families and groups who prefer exclusive aircraft usage. This eliminates waiting for other passengers and offers flexible scheduling. Private charters are priced differently from the standard per-person package. Contact +91-9575340786 for private Do Dham helicopter charter rates and availability.
If the entire Do Dham Yatra is cancelled before departure due to adverse weather or government restrictions, we offer a full refund minus a 10% processing fee. If the Yatra is cancelled mid-journey due to weather, a pro-rata refund is provided for the remaining unflown sectors and unused hotel nights. Force majeure cancellations are rescheduled at no extra cost.
The Do Dham helicopter Yatra minimises physical strain, but pilgrims still walk 500–800 metres at Kedarnath. We recommend light walking exercise 2–3 weeks before departure. Carry personal medicines, consult your doctor if you have heart or respiratory conditions, and inform our team of any medical requirements at booking. The shuttle helicopter and car transfers make this package accessible for most fitness levels.
The Do Dham road Yatra from Dehradun takes 5–6 days by car with long drives on mountain roads. The Do Dham helicopter Yatra completes both temples in 4 days with minimal road travel. The helicopter route includes VIP darshan, all meals, luxury hotels, and ground support — services that are self-arranged on the road route. Senior citizens and time-constrained pilgrims strongly prefer the helicopter option.
Triyuginarayan Temple, the celestial marriage site of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, is located near Kedarnath. While it is not part of the standard Do Dham helicopter itinerary, our ground team can arrange a car visit from Guptkashi or Sersi on Day 2 or Day 3 if time and weather permit. This requires advance request at the time of booking and may incur additional charges.
The best time for Kedarnath darshan is early morning (5:00–7:00 AM) when the temple is less crowded and the weather is clearest. Our helicopter schedule is designed to reach Kedarnath by mid-morning, allowing ample time for darshan before afternoon weather changes. VIP darshan arranged by Accretion Aviation significantly reduces waiting time regardless of the hour.
Yes. During peak season (May–June), our Do Dham helicopter slots fill up 3–4 weeks in advance. If your preferred dates are fully booked, we maintain a waiting list and notify you immediately if cancellations open up slots. We recommend booking as early as possible and keeping 2–3 alternative date ranges flexible for better availability.
Booking: 50% advance payment required to confirm your seats. Balance due 30 days before departure.
Cancellation: Full refund minus 10% processing fee if cancelled 30+ days before departure. 50% refund if cancelled 15–30 days before. No refund if cancelled within 14 days of departure. Weather-related cancellations are rescheduled at no extra charge.
Weight Policy: Normal limit is 75 kg per person including clothing. Accurate weight must be provided at booking. Passengers exceeding 75 kg may incur additional charges or seat adjustments.
Buffer Day: We strongly recommend keeping one buffer day at the end of your schedule. Mountain weather in the Garhwal Himalayas can change rapidly, and flights are rescheduled only when safe.
