BEST TIME TO VISIT

In summers, May to June is the best time to take Chardham Yatra but if you want to enjoy your journey without any rush or emergency, start early in July or September as this will be the ideal time for anyone to beat that rush. However, every year the Uttarakhand government announces the date of opening and closing of the circuit. In winter, the four shrines are moved to their winter sojourns namely, Ukhimath, Joshimath, Mukhba, and Kharsali for the deities of Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri respectively. All the gates are open for devotees to remain open in the winter. So, technically you may visit all year long to these shrines.

HOW AND WHERE TO START FROM
