Badrinath Yatra Tour Package 2027

Badrinath Dham in brief

Badrinath is the northernmost of the four dhams and the one that asks the least of your knees. The temple of Lord Vishnu as Badri Narayan stands at 3,133 m in Chamoli district, on the right bank of the Alaknanda, between the Nar and Narayan ranges. A motorable highway runs all the way into town, so pilgrims who cannot walk long distances, including many elders, can complete this dham with only a short stroll from the parking area to the temple gate.

For many families Badrinath is the shrine they visit first, before attempting the full Char Dham Yatra. Others pair it with Kedarnath on a Do Dham Yatra. This page covers the single-shrine trip, also called an Ek Dham Yatra: what it costs, how the days run, where you sleep and how to book.

Day-wise plan: Haridwar to Badrinath and back

This is the standard 3 nights / 4 days loop from Haridwar. If you start from Delhi, we add a first night in Haridwar and finish with a long drive from Srinagar Garhwal to Delhi on day 5.

1. Day
   1

   Haridwar to Joshimath

   275 km9–10 hoursNight: Joshimath

   An early start is essential, because this is the longest drive of the trip. The road follows the Ganga past Rishikesh, then the Alaknanda past Devprayag, Rudraprayag, Karnaprayag and Nandprayag, four of the five sacred confluences. Tea and lunch stops are taken at roadside dhabas. You reach Joshimath, now officially called Jyotirmath, in the evening and sleep at about 1,900 m, which helps the body adjust before the final climb.

2. Day
   2

   Joshimath to Badrinath, darshan and Mana

   45 km2 hoursNight: Badrinath

   A short morning drive passes Vishnuprayag and Pandukeshwar, where the deity's winter seat lies, before the valley opens below Neelkanth peak. Check in, bathe in the hot spring of the Tapt Kund and join the darshan queue. In the afternoon drive 3 km to Mana to see Vyas Gufa, Ganesh Gufa and Bhim Pul, the stone slab over the roaring Saraswati. Return for the evening aarti at the temple.

3. Day
   3

   Badrinath to Rudraprayag or Srinagar

   160 km6–7 hoursNight: Rudraprayag / Srinagar

   Pilgrims who wish to can take an early second darshan, or offer pind daan for their ancestors at Brahma Kapal on the river bank. After breakfast the drive heads back down the Alaknanda. By late afternoon you reach Rudraprayag or Srinagar Garhwal, both much warmer and lower than Badrinath, for a restful night.

4. Day

   Return to Haridwar

   165 km6–7 hoursNight: Tour ends

   The final leg drops through Devprayag, where the Alaknanda meets the Bhagirathi to become the Ganga, and on to Rishikesh. You arrive in Haridwar by afternoon. Many guests stay on for the Ganga aarti at Har Ki Pauri before boarding an evening train or heading to Dehradun airport.

Practical tips for Badrinath

Opening dates and season

The Badrinath opening date for 2027 will be announced on Basant Panchami at the Narendranagar palace, and the closing date is fixed on Vijayadashami, usually for mid-November. The 2026 season is now in its final weeks, so most of our current planning is for 2027. Keep an eye on the opening dates page. The calmest months are late May, June and from mid-September through October; July and August bring monsoon landslides on the highway. More detail is on our best time to visit page.

Registration

Registration is free and mandatory for every pilgrim. Apply on registrationandtouristcare.uk.gov.in or the Tourist Care Uttarakhand app and carry the QR slip with a photo ID. Our registration guide walks through each step.

Cold, altitude and packing

• Nights at Badrinath are cold even in June; pack a down or fleece jacket, cap and gloves.
• The Tapt Kund is hot, but the walk back to your room is chilly: carry a towel and a change of clothes in a small bag.
• Drink plenty of water and avoid rushing on arrival day.
• Carry cash: ATMs in Badrinath can run dry in peak weeks.
• Use our packing list before you leave home.

Easy add-ons

Badrinath sits close to some fine side trips. Hemkund Sahib and the Valley of Flowers start from Govindghat on the same highway, and the ski slopes of Auli are a short drive above Joshimath. Each adds one to three days.
