Travel Tips and What to Pack
- Start early every day. Hill roads have gates that close at dusk, and treks and flights should begin by 6 am.
- Go slow on altitude. Badrinath is at 3,300 m. Drink water, avoid alcohol and tell the driver or coordinator if you feel breathless or dizzy.
- Pack for cold and rain. Thermals, a down or fleece jacket, raincoat, warm cap, gloves, shoes with grip, sunscreen and a torch.
- Medicines. Your regular medicines for the full trip plus a basic kit: pain relief, ORS, antacid, motion sickness tablets and band-aids.
- Cash and network. ATMs and mobile network are unreliable near the dhams. Carry cash for pony, prasad and jeeps. BSNL and Jio work best.
- Keep buffer days. Landslides, rain and fog can cost a day. Do not book a flight or train on the evening you return.
- Respect temple rules. Photography is not allowed inside the temples. Dress modestly and follow the queue system.
This is a likely schedule. The coordinator may adjust it for weather, road conditions, temple timings or local rules. Extra stay caused by landslides, bad weather, road closures or flight cancellations is payable by the guest.
