The Chota Char Dham of Uttarakhand brings together four shrines in the Garhwal Himalaya: Yamunotri, the source of the Yamuna; Gangotri, the source of the Ganga; Kedarnath, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas; and Badrinath, the abode of Lord Vishnu. The yatra is done from west to east, starting at Yamunotri and ending at Badrinath, and runs for about six months from late April to early November.
Haridwar, Rishikesh and Dehradun are the base towns. Registration is compulsory for every pilgrim, Kedarnath needs a 16 to 18 km trek or a helicopter ride, and Yamunotri a 6 km trek. Many pilgrims add Rishikesh, Auli, Hemkund Sahib or Manali to make a longer holiday.

Char Dham Yatra is the pilgrimage to four Himalayan shrines in Uttarakhand: Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath. The traditional order is Yamunotri first and Badrinath last, moving from west to east. Do Dham covers Kedarnath and Badrinath, and Ek Dham covers a single shrine.
The temples open in late April or early May, around Akshaya Tritiya for Yamunotri and Gangotri, and a few days later for Kedarnath and Badrinath. They close after Diwali, between late October and mid November. Exact dates are announced by the temple committees a few weeks before opening, so check our opening date pages before you book.
By road, plan 10 to 12 days from Delhi or 9 to 10 days from Haridwar. Do Dham takes 5 to 7 days and Ek Dham 3 to 4 days. By helicopter the full Char Dham is covered in 5 to 6 days from Dehradun, and Do Dham in 1 to 2 days.
Road packages start at about ₹29,900 per person for a budget plan from Haridwar and ₹43,900 per person for a 12 day tour from Delhi. Do Dham starts near ₹24,900 and Ek Dham near ₹12,500. Helicopter yatra starts at about ₹1,35,000 for Do Dham and ₹2,20,000 for Char Dham. Prices depend on hotel category, vehicle, dates and group size.
