Travel Tips for Pilgrims from Nagpur

• Pack warm clothes even for May–June travel — temperatures at Kedarnath and Badrinath drop to 3–10°C at night
• Carry original ID proof (Aadhaar/Passport), printed Yatra Pass, and medical certificate if above 50 years
• ATMs are unreliable beyond Rishikesh — carry at least ₹5,000–₹8,000 in small notes
• Alcohol is strictly prohibited across the entire Chardham route — Uttarakhand Police imposes heavy fines
• Wear shoes that are already broken in — new footwear on a 16 km mountain trek leads to blisters
• Keep a basic medicine kit: paracetamol, ORS, antacid, antiseptic cream and bandage. Diamox only if your doctor advises it
• Do not rush at altitude — rest for at least half a day on arrival at Kedarnath before attempting the full darshan circuit
• Photography is restricted inside most temple sanctuaries — leave cameras and phones at the entrance
• For senior citizens: pony/doli at Yamunotri and Kedarnath; helicopter from Phata is the most practical option for Kedarnath
