Gangotri Yamunotri Yatra Package from Ahmedabad 2027

Why Ahmedabad pilgrims choose Gangotri and Yamunotri

For many Gujarati families, a dip in the Ganga at Haridwar is a lifelong tradition. Going further, to the very places where the Ganga and the Yamuna are worshipped at their source, is the natural next step. Ahmedabad is about 950 km from Delhi by rail and a little further to Haridwar, close enough for an overnight journey. From Haridwar our driver takes you up to Yamunotri (3,293 m) and Gangotri (3,100 m) and back in six days.

This is the gentlest way to see two of the four Char Dham shrines. Gangotri is a road journey right to the temple, and Yamunotri is a 6 km walk with ponies and palkis available. There is no 16 km Kedarnath climb, no very high night halt and fewer hours on the road than the full circuit.

Is this the right trip for you?

If you have ten days or more, consider the Char Dham Yatra from Ahmedabad instead. For Kedarnath alone, see the Kedarnath package from Ahmedabad.

Getting from Ahmedabad to the start point

There are three sensible ways to begin. The right one depends on how much time you have and who is travelling.

1. Train to Haridwar. A few long-distance trains from Gujarat run through to Haridwar or Rishikesh on certain days. If one fits your dates, it is the simplest choice: our driver meets you at the station and the tour starts as below. Check IRCTC for current services.
2. Train to Delhi. Overnight trains from Ahmedabad to Delhi are frequent and take about 13–16 hours. Choose the 6-night Delhi plan and we collect you at the station.
3. Flight to Delhi or Dehradun. Ahmedabad to Delhi is under two hours by air. Dehradun's Jolly Grant airport is 35 km from Haridwar and usually needs a connection.

Our guides to Char Dham by train and Char Dham by air explain stations and airports in more detail.

Practical tips for Gujarati travellers

• Vegetarian food is the norm everywhere on this route; Gujarati thali is rare, so carry thepla, khakhra and dry snacks for the road.
• Mornings at Gangotri are cold even in June. Pack woollens, a windproof jacket and comfortable shoes: what to carry.
• Pony and palki rates at Yamunotri are fixed by the local administration and change each season; pay only at the official counter.
• Register every traveller online first: yatra registration.
• Check opening dates before booking trains; the shrines open around Akshaya Tritiya.
• Mid-September to October is quieter and clearer than the May rush.
