Explore the Four Sacred Dhams
The Uttarakhand Char Dham circuit connects four important Hindu pilgrimage destinations. Each dham has its own religious significance and offers a different Himalayan experience.
Yamunotri Dham
Yamunotri is dedicated to Goddess Yamuna and is traditionally visited first during the Char Dham pilgrimage. The road journey generally reaches Janki Chatti, from where travelers continue toward the temple.
Surya Kund and Divya Shila are important religious sites associated with Yamunotri. The route also offers beautiful views of the surrounding Himalayan landscape.
Gangotri Dham
Gangotri is dedicated to Goddess Ganga and stands beside the Bhagirathi River in the Uttarkashi district. The Gangotri Temple attracts devotees throughout the pilgrimage season.
The road toward Gangotri passes through scenic mountain valleys and places such as Harsil. The peaceful surroundings and flowing Bhagirathi River add to the experience of visiting this sacred destination.
Kedarnath Dham

September to October
The post-monsoon period is another preferred travel window. Travelers can often enjoy cooler temperatures and clearer Himalayan views, but mountain weather can still change quickly.
