Day 1: Dehradun to Barkot (180 km / 6-7 hrs)
Start your journey fresh! Drive through scenic hill roads to Barkot, the base for Yamunotri. Take it slow, let the altitude sink in, and rest up for the trek tomorrow.
Stay: Barkot
Tip: Stock up on water, snacks, and warm clothes—you are officially in yatra mode now.
Day 2: Barkot – Yamunotri – Barkot (36 km drive + 6 km trek one way)
Early morning drive to Janki Chatti, then a 6 km trek to Yamunotri Temple (source of River Yamuna). You can walk, hire a pony, or even take a palki if you’re feeling royal/exhausted.
Darshan, pooja, soak your feet in the warm Surya Kund, and trek back down.

Day 3: Barkot to Uttarkashi (100 km / 4 hrs)
Head to Uttarkashi, home of the famous Kashi Vishwanath Temple. It’s a relaxed day—perfect to recharge.

Day 4: Uttarkashi – Gangotri – Uttarkashi (100 km each way)
Start early! Drive through amazing mountain views and head to Gangotri Temple, the origin of River Ganga. It’s peaceful, powerful, and yes, cold.
After darshan, return to Uttarkashi by evening.
Stay: Uttarkashi
Day 5: Uttarkashi to Guptkashi (210 km / 8-9 hrs)
A long travel day. Sit back, soak in the views, and let your playlist carry you. Guptkashi is the base for Kedarnath. You are entering tougher terrain now.

Day 6: Guptkashi – Gaurikund – Kedarnath (30 km drive + 16 km trek)
Drive to Gaurikund, then begin the 16 km trek to Kedarnath. This is the hardest part of the yatra, but also the most powerful. Kedarnath Temple sits in a valley surrounded by giant snow-clad peaks. It is amazing. Take your time, go slow, and stay hydrated.

FAQ on Char Dham Tour from Dehradun
Do the Chardham Yatra packages also include registration?
Yes, sometimes the package includes the group registration process, provided with all documents by pilgrims. Agencies also help in registering with chat on WhatsApp or a call.
Will the yatra get completed in 10 days exactly?
Yes, generally, 10 days are well enough for the yatra, but weather conditions or a huge crowd can delay schedules. In the initial phase of Yatra, there may be a huge waiting line and pilgrims at Kedarnath and Badrinath Temples, but after 20-25 days of the Chardham opening date, things get lined up with a smooth process and a shorter waiting time.
Is the shared bus journey comfortable?
Shared bus journey is comfortable as Volvo buses come equipped with reclining and pushback seats with sleeper berth options as well. Fare in this bus starts from Rs 9,000 per person for 10 days from Dehradun.
Is private transportation like a tempo traveller very costly?
If comfort is your main requirement, then we suggest a car for a small family trip or multi-seater tempo travellers, which have pushback seats and a compact body.
