Char Dham Yatra from Haridwar

📅 Char Dham Yatra from Haridwar 2026 bookings are now open. We also accept advance bookings for Chardham Yatra 2027.

Chardham Yatra is one of India's most sacred pilgrimages. The auspicious Char Dham Yatra concludes with visits to the Char Dham Temples of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri, which are all in Uttarakhand, India.

The Chardham yatra is considered very important in Hinduism and attracts a large number of devotees from all over India and beyond. The best Chardham tour packages allow pilgrims to visit all four shrines independently and on a set schedule.

Char Dham Yatra packages typically include transportation, lodging, meals, and sightseeing. The package price may differ depending on the length of the tour, the type of lodging, and the mode of transportation.

Because of their high elevation, all four Dhams are covered in thick layers of snow during the winter. The temples are closed during this time of year. The deities are relocated to neighbouring villages, where prayers will continue for the next six months.
