In the Indian state of Uttarakhand, the Rudraprayag district includes the cities and municipalities of Rudraprayag. Rudraprayag is the site where the Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers converge, one of the Panch Prayag (five confluences) of the Alaknanda River. Rudraprayag is situated 86 miles away from Kedarnath, a sacred Hindu city. This was the home of the man-eating Leopard of Rudraprayag, which Jim Corbett pursued and wrote about.
