Badrinath Yatra Package from Gujarat 2027

From the western dham to the northern dham

Adi Shankaracharya is credited with linking four great shrines at the four corners of India: Dwarka in the west, Puri in the east, Rameswaram in the south and Badrinath in the north. For a family from Saurashtra or Kutch that has visited Dwarkadhish many times, Badrinath often becomes the next goal. Both temples honour Lord Vishnu, one as Krishna, king of Dwarka, and the other as Badri Narayan, the ascetic seated in meditation.

The two are about as far apart as two shrines in India can be, but the Himalayan part of the journey is shorter than it looks. Once you reach Delhi or Haridwar, Badrinath is a four or five day road trip with no trek at all. This page plans for the 2027 season; the 2026 temple closes in mid-November and the new opening date is announced each Basant Panchami.

Reaching Delhi from different parts of Gujarat

Distances below are approximate rail distances to Delhi. Every city in the table has daily trains to Delhi, and the larger airports have flights. Choose the overnight train if you are travelling with elders and heavy bags; choose a flight if leave is short.

City-specific pages give more detail: Badrinath from Ahmedabad, Badrinath from Surat, and the Char Dham pages for Vadodara, Rajkot and Bhavnagar.

Badrinath package price for Gujarat pilgrims

You pay for the land package; travel between Gujarat and Delhi is separate. Prices are per person for four travellers sharing one vehicle on twin or triple sharing.

2027 estimates. The final price depends on dates, hotel category and group size; larger groups in one Tempo Traveller usually pay less per person.

Travelling as a samaj or mandal group

Many Gujarat pilgrims travel with their community, society or temple mandal. For ten to seventeen people we use Tempo Travellers, and for larger groups we can arrange more than one vehicle or a bus on request. A group leader receives one consolidated quote and a single point of contact. See our Tempo Traveller page and the bus tour for how group trips work.

What to see and do at Badrinath

Your night at Badrinath leaves time for more than the main darshan. Most of these places lie within walking distance of the temple or a few minutes by car, and none needs a trek.

• Tapt Kund: a natural hot spring below the temple where pilgrims bathe before darshan, welcome on a cold morning.
• Brahma Kapal: a flat rock on the Alaknanda where families perform shraddh and pind daan for their ancestors.
• Narad Kund and Neelkanth views: the snow peak of Neelkanth glows at sunrise directly behind the town.
• Mana village: 3 km away, with Vyas Gufa, Ganesh Gufa, Bhim Pul and the roaring Saraswati river.
• Mata Murti temple: a small shrine a short drive out of town, dedicated to the mother of Nar and Narayan.

Where you sleep

Hotels at Badrinath are simple compared with Gujarat city hotels, but clean rooms with hot water and blankets are standard in every plan. More on room types is on our Badrinath hotel booking page.
