Panch Kedar represent five different forms of Lord Shiva. Each temple perched in one of the valley known as Kedamath valley (3584 m), Madmaheshwar Valley (3289 m), Tungnath Valley (3810 m), Rudranath Valley (2286 m) and Palpnath Valley (2134 m). Although the entire ancient temples are similar in architecture, yet each temple has its own attraction in different, valleys rich in flora and fauna. The view from each temple of the mighty Garhwal Himalayas is most fascinating for the trekkers. Trekking can be undertaken either from Gopeshwar or Joshimath. While visiting the temples enroute, one can have lovely view of the peaks of Nanda Devi, Trishul and Devastan.
