Kedarnath Temple opened for the 2026 pilgrimage season on 22 April 2026 at 8:00 AM, following the traditional Panchmukhi Doli procession from Omkareshwar Temple in Ukhimath. The temple stays open for roughly six months and closes around Bhai Dooj, two days after Diwali — historically late October to mid-November. The exact 2026 closing date is confirmed closer to the season by the Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee, so travellers booking this Kedarnath Tour Package from Delhi for September onward should check the latest closing announcement before finalising dates.
Kedarnath is approximately 450–470 km from Delhi by road up to Gaurikund, the last motorable point, followed by a 16 km trek to the temple at 3,583 metres. The road route runs via Haridwar, Rishikesh, Devprayag, Rudraprayag, Guptkashi, and Sonprayag — the same stops this itinerary covers across Days 1–3. Covering this distance in one stretch isn’t advisable; breaking the journey at Haridwar and Guptkashi, as this Kedarnath Tour Package from Delhi does, allows the body time to acclimatize before the high-altitude trek.
| Period | What to Expect |
| May – Early June | Temple freshly open, pleasant weather, high demand — book early |
| Mid-June – August | Monsoon; landslide risk on hill roads. Generally avoid |
| September – Mid-October | Clear skies, thinner crowds — often the best window |
| Late October – Closing | Cold at night; temple closes around Bhai Dooj, confirm exact date |
The Kedarnath trek gains roughly 1,300–1,400 metres in altitude, from Gaurikund (about 1,980 m) to the temple (3,583 m), which can trigger Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) — symptoms include headache, nausea, and breathlessness. To reduce the risk: stay well hydrated, pace the climb with regular breaks, avoid alcohol before trekking, and rest overnight at Guptkashi or Sonprayag before the ascent, as this itinerary is structured to do. Travellers with heart conditions or limited mobility should consider the helicopter option and consult a doctor before booking. Basic medical aid posts are stationed at intervals along the trek route for emergencies.

This Kedarnath Tour Package from Delhi starts from ₹13,999 per person for the 5-day, 4-night fixed group departure.
The full circuit — Delhi, Haridwar, Guptkashi, the Kedarnath trek, and Rishikesh — takes 5 days and 4 nights.
Kedarnath is approximately 450–470 km from Delhi by road up to Gaurikund, followed by a 16 km trek to the temple. This Kedarnath Tour Package from Delhi covers that distance across three days, with acclimatization halts at Haridwar and Guptkashi.
The trek from Gaurikund to Kedarnath is 16 km, gaining about 1,300–1,400 metres in altitude, and is rated moderate to strenuous — typically 6–8 hours for fit trekkers and up to 10 hours for beginners. Reasonably fit travellers can manage it with breaks; pony, palki, and helicopter options are available for those who prefer not to walk the full distance.
Kedarnath Temple opened for the 2026 season on 22 April 2026 at 8:00 AM. It typically closes around Bhai Dooj, historically late October to mid-November; the exact 2026 closing date is announced closer to the season by the temple committee.
May and early June (soon after the temple opens) and mid-September to mid-October (clearer skies, thinner crowds) are generally considered the best windows. The monsoon months of July–August are best avoided due to landslide risk on the hill roads.
Yes. All Char Dham pilgrims, including those visiting Kedarnath, must complete mandatory yatra registration before starting the trek. Carry a valid photo ID.
Besides walking the 16 km route, travellers can opt for a pony, a palki (doli) carried by porters, or a helicopter from Phata, Guptkashi, or Sirsi. All three are available at own cost, subject to availability, weather, and season.
Network coverage is limited. Jio and Airtel generally work up to Guptkashi, and BSNL has the best coverage closer to the Kedarnath region, but expect little to no signal for most of the trek itself. Carrying a power bank and downloading offline maps in advance is recommended.
It’s possible but requires planning. The high altitude and thin air make the on-foot trek strenuous for older travellers or those with heart conditions, so the helicopter or palki options are usually recommended instead. Anyone with a pre-existing health condition should consult a doctor before booking.
Yes, a river rafting session on the Ganga in Rishikesh is included on Day 5, before the return drive to Delhi.
This is a fixed-departure group tour with a group size of 21 people.
