The Best Time to Visit Char Dham

The best time to visit Char Dham Yatra depends on the  opening and closing dates of these temples, as well as weather conditions in the region. The CDY in Uttarakhand typically takes place during the summer months, as the region experiences harsh winter conditions and heavy snowfall in the higher altitudes during the winter season. The Char Dham opens in late April or early May and closes around October or November each year. The Firstrek Char Dham Yatra Package 2024 gives you to experience the divine blessing from this yatra.

Summer(Late April to Mid June)

The best time to visit  from late April to June. The weather during these months is generally pleasant and suitable for travel. The temperatures are mild, and the region experiences clear skies, making it easier for pilgrims to undertake the journey without facing extreme weather conditions. The roads leading to the Char Dham sites are usually open during these months, allowing better accessibility for pilgrims.

Post-Mansoon(August toNovember)

Following the conclusion of the rainy season, the atmosphere becomes refreshingly clean, and the skies regain their clarity. During this period, the weather is typically delightful and conducive to travel. Mild temperatures prevail, accompanied by clear skies, providing an ideal environment for pilgrims to embark on their journey without encountering harsh weather conditions.The monsoon season (July to August) is not recommended for due to heavy rainfall, landslides, and difficult travel conditions in the region.

It’s important to note that the CDY is generally closed during the winter months (November to April) due to heavy snowfall and harsh weather conditions. The exact opening and closing dates may vary each year, so it’s advisable to check with the local authorities or the respective temple committees for the most up-to-date information before planning your visit. Additionally, be prepared for varying temperatures and altitudes, and make sure to carry appropriate clothing and essentials for a safe and comfortable pilgrimage.

Thank you Bhaskar ji for providing a cab facility at the last moment. Due to Indigo flight issue, my existing cab booking from an online vendor was refused. This put me in great trouble as I had to travel back to Delhi from Mussoorie on 7-Dec-2025, with my wife and 3 year old kid.

At that critical time, I got in touch with Bhaskar ji from Siwalik Tours and Travels and he in one go arranged the cab for my travel without charging anything extra in this dire situation. While other cab agencies were busy in making extra money and charging 1.5x times extra.

I deeply appreciate his effort and concern and also the professional attitude with which he handled everything.

The driver that was provided by him, was quite good, had good knowledge of the road, drove the vehicle in a smooth and comfortable way. I had a nice, safe, hassle free ride back home.

I would recommend others to book their cab service and tours for North India and other trips.
Thanks once again, Regards Anik Saha

Shivalik travels was the key factor in our CHARDHAM journey especially their drivers- Sanjeev & Arjun. They are really perfect for mountain roads. Very good judgement and safe driving. Gave us a sense of security. Along with these two, the whole Shivalik family were very polite and co operative. Our Tour was planned in a systematic way and got over without any hurdles. Stays and food were good too but definitely has a scope for improvement at some destinations. We enjoyed Pahadi meal on the way to Chopta at Pine-tree home stay . The owner is a great host and serves meals with lots of love .
Thank you Mr. Anuj and Team Shivalik for being a wonderful medium for our Holy Journey.
Looking forward to team up with you for AMARANTH YATRA ….
