The Char Dham Yatra covers Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath. Most travellers choose May to June or September to October for better weather and smoother road movement. CareMyTrip plans road-based packages from Haridwar and Delhi, plus helicopter itineraries from Dehradun for travellers who want a shorter and more comfortable journey. A good itinerary should account for altitude, weather buffers, hotel quality, vehicle condition and darshan support. Families and senior citizens should keep the pace relaxed and avoid very long back-to-back driving days where possible.
