Trekking Path to Vishnu Charan Paduka

Trekking Path to Vishnu Charan Paduka

The path towards Vishnu Charan Paduka is on the left side of the Badrinath Temple. Walk a few meters and on the right side, you will see stairs going upwards. Follow the stairs to reach Vishnu Charan Paduka situated at Narayan Parvat. During our visit, we saw damaged iron railings for stairs due to excessive snow but no worries as the stairs are wide enough to climb and after the stairs, there is a stony path to Vishnu Charan Paduka.

We started our journey at 1:15 in the afternoon hours and at 2:15 pm we were at Vishnu Charan Paduka.

The view from Vishnu Charan Paduka is excellent. On one side you can watch Neelkanth Peak and on the other side, you can watch Nar Parvat. Offer prayers to Goddess Laxmi and Lord Vishnu‘s footprints at Vishnu Charan Paduka. On the left side of Vishnu Charan Paduka is Rishi Ganga – the holy river. You will also see a memorial plaque on the right side near Vishnu Charan Paduka talking about six mountaineers who went for the Neelkanth expedition and never returned. And if you wish, you can meet and talk with a few babas living inside Boulder caves near Vishnu Charan Paduka. One such baba is Budhinath Yogi and the other is Mauni Baba.
