Ukhimath is a destination for the devout and the followers of Hindu mythology, but everyone is welcome. As said, Ukhimath is the winter seat of Lord Kedarnath, who is temporarily shifted every year from Kedarnath, that snows in heavily during winters and unfit for travel.
Ukhimath also houses older shrines of Shiv-Parvati and the protagonists of the tale of Banasura, Usha and Aniruddh.
