When Is The Best Time To Take The Road To Char Dham Yatra?

 

For a seamless road trip on your Chardham Yatra, take the season into account. Clear roads and pleasant weather are available from May to June. As an alternative, September to October offers beautiful scenery following the monsoon but prior to the winter cold. Steer clear of landslides and road closures during the July–August monsoon season. Keep in mind that heavy snowfall makes wintertime road travel challenging, from November to April. With a char Dham Yatra by road package, you can select the best time of year to travel and have a safe and rewarding Yatrakey experience. Our other tour packages, including those for Auli Chopta, the Do Dham Yatra, Uttarakhand, and others, are also available for reservation.
