Char Dham Weather

Due to their high altitude location, all four Dhams are covered in thick layers of snow during the winter season. The temples close during this time of year. The deities are moved to nearby villages, where prayers will continue for the next six months. You can find Chardham's opening and closing dates here, as well as detailed information about the Char Dham weather report.

Although the timing was tough but finally it was excellent. When we reach phatta on 2nd may we never thought we could visit kedarnath on 3rd Or 4th may 2023. But the change of the climate was miracle. We could visit on 4th. It was a good darshan we can forget in our lifetime.

I had visited chardham yatra tour with vaishnavi holidays in the month of may 2023 vaishnavi holidays given good facility of travel and food or another facility . All the facility good they given discounted also. My family is also happy from this tour because we visited all the temples safely. Hotel management is also nice which provide the vaishnavi holidays. you can also come and go with vaishnavi holidays for tours they gives offers for you and safety is the most important part of the travel they gives the more safety too you.

The arrangement done by our trip advisor was amazing. We never had any problem any where since trip advisor as well as the other members of the vaisnavi holidays were alert 24/7 . Even in case any small problems during the tour was immediately solved by the trip advisor or the other member. In one occasion, a hotel fellow was hesitating to provide breakfast little early as requested by me than when I talked to Mr dipak upadhyay, he personally dealt with that hotel, finally the hotel was forced provide me the breakfast as per my requirement. It may be a very small thing but that matters when u are on a trip outside your own area. This the way trip advisor had deslt. Hence we are extremely satisfied with tour guide of the agency.
