Devprayag - Prayag of Alakhnanda and Bhagirathi river


The Alaknanda rises at the confluence and feet of the Satopanth and Bhagirath Kharak glaciers in Uttarakhand. The headwaters of the Bhagirathi are formed at Gaumukh, at the foot of the Gangotri glacier and Khatling glaciers in the Garhwal Himalaya. These two sacred rivers join to form the Ganges (Ganga) in Devprayag. Devprayag is 70 km from Rishikesh. Devprayag has an average elevation of 830 metres (2,723 feet).
