Actually, the Tourism Department started Aadhaar based online registration from March 20, after which lakhs of people have registered themselves so far. If you are also going to Baba's darshan with your family this time, then plan by keeping some special things in mind. Here we are going to give you some such tips, which are important to keep in mind while planning to go to Baba Kedar's door.

Choose the right time

If you are going to Baba Kedar's darshan with your children and elders of the house, then choose a time when there is not much crowd there. Do not plan to go in the beginning of the journey. There is the most crowd in these days. Apart from this, avoid going there during the rainy season. The mountains become very slippery during the rainy season, due to which you may have to face trouble.

Health checkup is important

Just before going on the journey, get a full body checkup done for yourself as well as children and the elderly. Body checkup is also important so that it can be known whether there is any problem in anyone's body. If there is any problem, then go on Kedarnath Yatra only after consulting a doctor.

Decide the travel mode in advance.

To have the darshan of Kedarnath Baba, you have to climb several kilometers, which is not possible for the elderly and children. In such a situation, decide in advance whether a mule, palanquin, pitthu, or helicopter will be right for them. The helicopter has to be booked in advance. Whereas you will get other things at the beginning of the climb. Their prices are fixed, so avoid bargaining.

Make arrangements for staying in advance.

Remember that due to the crowd in Kedarnath, it is not so easy to get a hotel-dharmshala or homestay. Therefore, make arrangements for staying before going. Book a government guest house or hotel in Gaurikund, Sonprayag, Phata, or Kedarnath in advance. So that you do not have to wander anywhere with children and the elderly.

Keep food items with you.

Apart from children, the elderly also need to eat something from time to time. In such a situation, keep some food items with you. Keep things like mathri, laddu, namkeen, and biscuits with you. Because these do not spoil quickly.

A first aid kit is important.

Apart from food and drinks, also keep a first aid kit with you. Keep the necessary medicines in it. It is very important to have things like Vicks, Move Spray, Bandage with you. Keep a warm bandage with you as well, it can be useful at the time of need.
