Dhari Devi Temple

Dhari Devi Temple

Riverside shrine to Goddess Kali on the Alaknanda, relocated after a hydropower project, en route to Badrinath.

Dhari Devi Temple sits on the banks of the Alaknanda between Srinagar and Rudraprayag, dedicated to the goddess in her Kali form. The temple was relocated from its original rock perch due to a hydropower project, a move that stirred debate among devotees who consider the site central to the region's spiritual balance. It remains a common stop for pilgrims travelling the Badrinath road.

  • How to Reach: On the Badrinath highway beside the Alaknanda, about 15 km from Srinagar toward Rudraprayag; a short walk down from the road.
