Overview

Set up in the year 2003 for the first time, "The Chardham Camps" pioneered the concept of integrated luxury pilgrimage travel in a market yet untouched by any quality service outfitter. The camps provide luxury accommodation in Swiss cottage tents with attached baths and showers for the first time in the history of the Chardham Circuit. This led to the project patronization by a plethora of national and international travel agents as well as the government travel organizations like GMVN.

Millions of pilgrims flock to this eco-sensitive region of Garhwal in large numbers to offer prayers to the Holy Shrines (Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri) for six months, starting April until mid November every year. In the last few years, a number of lodges, hotels and dharamshalas have opened their doors catering to these budget travelers. Leisure Hotels feel that providing quality accommodation, good services and consistent F&B standards is mammoth task for any single operator as there is not a single soul traveling in this sector for the remaining eight months.

The maintenance of a brick and mortar structure as well as retention of high quality manpower is quite difficult at such remote places. Furthermore, it becomes economically un-viable. It is primarily due to these difficulties that the group introduced the concept of "The Chardham Camps". This concept also gives the flexibility to offer personalized services to all the guests.

Some of the major highlights of the camps:-

• Accommodation in spacious all weather proof luxury-tents (16' x 12')
• Attached baths and toilets with running hot and cold water
• Multi cuisine dining facilities
• Hot water bottles as sun down service
• Guided visits to the shrine
• First aid at camps with oxygen cylinders
• Escorted walk and visits to nearby areas
• STD / ISD calling facilities at the camps
• Well structured activity blocks at each of the campsites to take care of aarti, religious discourses, yoga lessons, etc
• A media and utilities center at all the campsites
• Ayurvedic massages

"The Chardham Camps" can thus be adjudged as the best alternative to luxury hotels in Chardham. Set amidst the serenity of the plush flora, The Chardham Camps promises you the finest accommodation in Chardham . So get set to enjoy your Chardham yatra amidst the folds of snow-covered peaks of the lofty Garhwal Himalayas.
