The primary and most revered locations for Shradh in Haridwar include:
Kushavarta Ghat: This Ghat is specifically renowned and widely considered the most appropriate place in Haridwar for performing Shradh, Pind Daan, and Tarpan.
Narayani Shila Temple: Located near Mayapur, this temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu has a sacred stone (Shila) specifically associated with Pitru Karma (ancestral rites). Performing Shradh here is believed to be particularly effective for pacifying troubled souls and relieving Pitru Dosh.
Har Ki Pauri: While famous for Ganga Aarti, the Brahma Kund area within Har Ki Pauri is also a significant and holy spot where Shradh rituals are performed.
Other Ghats: Rituals can also be conducted at other Ghats like Vishnu Ghat or Gau Ghat, often chosen based on Pandit recommendations or family tradition.
