The Char Dham Yatra is considered to be one of the highly revered Tirth Yatras in Hinduism. This yatra is undertaken by devotees from all over India to get rid of the cycle of birth and death and achieve Moksha. You get to explore four of the holiest sites in Hinduism, including Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri, with Chardham Tour Packages. Badrinath is dedicated to Lord Badri, Kedarnath is the holy abode of Lord Kedar, Gangotri is the source of the river Ganga, and Yamunotri is the source of the River Yamuna. You can seek the blessings of Goddess Ganga at Gangotri Temple, perform various holy rituals at Yamunotri Temple, attend the Aarti ceremony at Kedarnath Temple, and absorb the serene ambiance of Badrinath Temple.
The Chardham temples remain open from April or May to November or October for just half a year. The temples generally open after Akshaya Tritiya. However, the Mandir Samiti confirms the exact dates on the auspicious day of Maha Shivaratri. The final dates are determined by Bhimashankar Linga Temple's priest.
Since the Char Dham temples are located at high altitudes, they witness a heavy snowfall during winter, because of which the committee has to close the shrines during this season, making the months from October/November and April/May the best time to visit Char Dham. Moreover, during the winter when Kedarnath Temple's gates remain closed, Kedarnath's idol is shifted to Omkareshwar Temple, which is located in Ukhimath. Whereas, Mukhimath Temple in Mukba, Vasu Dev Temple in Joshimath, and Shani Dev Temple in Kharsali are the holy sites that become the winter home of the idols of Gangotri, Badrinath, and Yamunotri.
Avoid travelling in the monsoon season (mid-July to mid-August) as there are high chances of rainfall and the roads may be blocked. There are also chances of landslides during this season, making travel risky.
In 2026, the holy gates of the Gangotri and Yamunotri temples are anticipated to reopen on 30 April, while Kedarnath and Badrinath will reopen for devotees on 02 May 2026.
Regardless of mode of travel or age, devotees need to register if they want to undertake the Chardham Yatra. There are two different modes of registration for those who have booked Chardham Yatra Packages or are planning to embark on the Yatra.
