Trijuginarayan
Around 12.5 km drive from Sonprayag, through forests and orchards, the legendary village of Trijuginarayan lies on the ancient bridle path that goes down from Kedarnath to Gangotri. Here, countless centuries ago, the wedding ceremony of Shiva and Parvati took place. The fire 'Akhand Dhuni', around which the celestial couple repeated their vows still burns as remnants being fed through the ages.Pilgrims reverently smear the holy ash on their forheads.

Chopta
A slice of Alps in Garhwal. Situated at a height of 2,900 metres above sea level, Chopta, is really an astounding destination replete with splendour and awesome natural beauty. It bears a resemblance to Swiss Alps as it nestles on the green meadows amidst luxuriant rain forests. Chopta boasts of magnificent views of some major Himalayan peaks. The bloom of rhododendron flowers along the trek makes a heavenly path to Tungnath.

Tungnath
Tungnath, the highest shrine of Shiva among the Panch Kedar is at an elevation of about 3680 mts. The arms of Lord Shiva came out as per the Kedarnath myth at Tungnath. Enroute exotic varieties of rhododendrons, white flowres and shrub like trees can be seen in abundance. It is at a four kilometer trek from Chopta. From Tungnath another 2 kms trek takes you to the top Chandrashila from where all the major peaks like Chokhamba, Trishuli, Nanda Devi, Kailash etc. are visible at very short distances.
