Chardham Yatra Route and Travel Distances
The Chardham Yatra follows a fixed sequence starting with Yamunotri in the west and ending with Badrinath in the north-east. This order is considered spiritually auspicious and also makes practical sense on the road, avoiding unnecessary backtracking through the narrow Himalayan highways.
The full circuit from Delhi and back covers roughly 1,500 to 1,800 km by road. Here is how the journey breaks down, leg by leg:
- Delhi to Haridwar: around 220 km, takes about 4 to 5 hours by private vehicle
- Haridwar to Barkot (Yamunotri base camp): around 220 km, 7 to 8 hours through Mussoorie and Barkot
- Barkot to Janki Chatti (Yamunotri trek start): 30 km, about 45 minutes by road
- Janki Chatti to Yamunotri Temple: 6 km trek one way, 3 to 4 hours on foot or pony
- Barkot to Uttarkashi (Gangotri base): 100 km, 3 to 4 hours
- Uttarkashi to Gangotri Temple: 100 km, 3 to 4 hours by road, no trek required
- Gangotri to Guptkashi (Kedarnath base): around 250 km, 8 to 9 hours via Chamba and Tehri
- Guptkashi to Gaurikund (Kedarnath trek start): 30 km, about 1 hour by road
- Gaurikund to Kedarnath Temple: 18 km trek one way, 6 to 7 hours on foot, shorter by pony or palki
- Guptkashi / Rudraprayag to Badrinath: around 175 km, 5 to 6 hours
- Badrinath to Haridwar: around 300 km, 8 to 9 hours
- Haridwar to Delhi: 220 km, 4 to 5 hours
The two toughest legs on the body are the Kedarnath trek (18 km one way from Gaurikund) and the Yamunotri trek (6 km one way from Janki Chatti). Pony, palki, doli, and helicopter services are available at both shrines for pilgrims who prefer not to walk.
Day-by-Day Itinerary: Chardham Yatra from Delhi (11 Days / 10 Nights)
This is our most popular Chardham Yatra tour package. The itinerary below is a standard plan and gives you a clear picture of what the journey actually looks like on the ground. Actual timings may vary by a day depending on weather, road conditions, and temple darshan schedules.
Day 1 – Delhi to Barkot
Leave Delhi early in the morning by private vehicle. The drive goes through Dehradun and Mussoorie, around 450 km in total and taking 10 to 11 hours. Barkot is the base town for Yamunotri. Check in, rest, and settle in for the journey ahead. Overnight stay at Barkot.
Day 2 – Barkot: Yamunotri Darshan
After breakfast, drive 30 km to Janki Chatti. From here, take the 6 km trek or a pony ride up to Yamunotri temple, dedicated to Goddess Yamuna. Visit the Surya Kund hot springs, cook rice in the thermal waters as is the tradition, and seek blessings at the temple. Return trek to Janki Chatti, then drive back to Barkot. Overnight at Barkot.
Day 3 – Barkot to Uttarkashi
Drive from Barkot to Uttarkashi, around 100 km and 3 to 4 hours. Uttarkashi is a lively town with the Vishwanath Temple right in the centre. Check in to the hotel, visit the local market in the evening, and rest up for the Gangotri visit the next morning. Overnight at Uttarkashi.
Day 4 – Uttarkashi: Gangotri Darshan
Drive 100 km from Uttarkashi to Gangotri temple, the origin point of the river Ganga. Attend morning aarti, seek blessings at the shrine, and visit Bhagirathi Shila nearby. Unlike Yamunotri, Gangotri is fully accessible by road so there is no trek involved. Return to Uttarkashi in the afternoon. Overnight at Uttarkashi.
Day 5 – Uttarkashi to Guptkashi
An early start for the longest drive of the trip, around 250 km from Uttarkashi to Guptkashi through Chamba, Tehri, and Rudraprayag. This takes roughly 8 to 9 hours. Guptkashi is the base town for Kedarnath and has temples worth a quick visit in the evening. Overnight at Guptkashi.
Day 6 – Guptkashi to Kedarnath
Drive 30 km to Gaurikund and begin the 18 km trek to Kedarnath. Pony, palki, and helicopter options are available. Arrive at Kedarnath, check in to the campsite or guesthouse, and attend evening aarti at the Kedarnath temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas dedicated to Lord Shiva. Overnight at Kedarnath.
Day 7 – Kedarnath Darshan and Descent to Rudraprayag
Wake up early for morning darshan at Kedarnath temple before the crowds arrive. Trek back down to Gaurikund, then drive to Rudraprayag for an overnight rest. This is a quieter recovery day after two demanding days at Kedarnath.
Day 8 – Rudraprayag to Badrinath
Drive from Rudraprayag to Badrinath, around 175 km and 5 to 6 hours through the Chamoli district. Pass through Joshimath and stop at Vishnuprayag, one of the five Panch Prayag confluences along the way. Arrive at Badrinath, check in, and attend evening aarti at the temple. Overnight at Badrinath.
Day 9 – Badrinath Darshan and Sightseeing
Rise early for morning darshan at Badrinath, dedicated to Lord Vishnu. After the darshan, visit Mana village just 3 km away, the last Indian village before the Tibet border. Walk through the Vyas and Ganesh caves, cross Bhim Pul over the Saraswati river, and take in the mountain views. Overnight at Badrinath.
Day 10 – Badrinath to Haridwar
Drive from Badrinath to Haridwar, around 300 km and 8 to 9 hours. Arrive in time for the famous Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri in the evening. A beautiful way to close the four-shrine circuit. Overnight at Haridwar.
Day 11 – Haridwar to Delhi
Optional morning visit to the Haridwar ghats before the drive back to Delhi, around 220 km and 4 to 5 hours. The Chardham Yatra concludes on arrival in Delhi.

Best Time to Travel for Chardham Yatra 2026
The Char Dham temples open around Akshaya Tritiya, usually in late April or early May, and close after Diwali in late October or November. Within that window:
- April to June: the best time to travel. Days are clear and pleasant between 15 and 36 degrees, evenings get cold but manageable, and the mountain views are at their finest
- July to September: monsoon season. Heavy rain, landslides, and road disruptions are common in the hill sections. We advise against travel during this period unless you are prepared for delays
- September to November: another good window once the rains clear. Green valleys, fewer crowds, and comfortable temperatures, though the temples close by Diwali so confirm dates before booking
For pilgrims who cannot travel in the main season, NTP Groups runs a Winter Chardham from Delhi package visiting the winter seats of the four deities at Kharsali, Mukhymath, Ukhimath, and Pandukeshwar, where darshan continues through the winter months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the correct order for visiting the four shrines?
The traditional sequence is Yamunotri first, then Gangotri, Kedarnath, and finally Badrinath. This order is considered auspicious and also makes practical sense geographically, cutting down unnecessary backtracking on the mountain roads.
Q. Is Chardham Yatra suitable for senior citizens?
Yes, and many senior pilgrims complete it every year. We recommend either the helicopter package or a road itinerary with built-in rest days. Pony, palki, and doli support is available at Kedarnath and Yamunotri for those who prefer not to trek.
Q. What is the difference between a road package and a helicopter package?
A road package takes 10 to 12 days and gives you the full mountain experience at a more manageable cost. A helicopter package completes the same four shrines in 5 to 6 days by flying between helipads, skipping the long drives and making it much easier physically. Helicopter packages are priced higher but are a good fit for pilgrims short on time or with mobility concerns.
Q. Is registration mandatory for Chardham Yatra 2026?
Yes, the Uttarakhand government requires yatris to register before starting the journey. This can be done online through the official portal or at registration counters in Haridwar and Rishikesh. Our team handles all the registration formalities as part of every package.
Q. Can I book a package for just one or two shrines?
Yes. We offer single-shrine packages including the Kedarnath Tour from Delhi, Badrinath Yatra from Delhi, and Gangotri Yatra from Delhi, as well as Do Dham packages covering Kedarnath and Badrinath together. Call us and we will put together the right itinerary for your schedule.
Q. What should I pack for the Chardham Yatra?
Warm woollens and a rain jacket regardless of the season, as evenings in the Himalayas get cold even in May. Good walking shoes are essential. Carry enough cash since ATMs are unreliable in remote areas, a valid photo ID for registration, any personal medicines, and comfortable clothing for temple visits.
