Best Time To Visit Kedarnath

Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination

Kedarnath is one of the holiest shrines in India. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, it is the highest of the 12 “Jyotirlingas,” where Shiva manifests as an ever-burning radiant light. Embark on a transcendental journey to this sacred place, surrounded by its divine aura. The climate of Kedarnath can be described as cold and wet, receiving a lot of rain. Therefore, most pilgrims visit Kedarnath during the summer season. The best time to visit Kedarnath is from April to June, when the rains are milder and less frequent, and the temperatures aren’t freezing cold.

Even in ‘summer’, the weather is chilly during the mornings and evenings, and only the afternoon sun provides relief. The winter cold cuts to the bone, and Kedarnath Temple is closed off. The temple is open only between April and November. The Char Dham pilgrimage also starts once all the holy shrines are opened after winter. The Badri Kedar Festival, which celebrates the union of Lord Vishnu (Badrinath) and Lord Shiva (Kedarnath), is also organised in June, making it the best time to visit Kedarnath temple and make a pilgrimage to the Char Dhams.

Summer Season in Kedarnath

Summer is the peak season in Kedarnath, making it the ideal time to visit and go on your Char Dham pilgrimage. The daytime temperatures are moderate, remaining between 8 and 15 degrees Celsius. It is plenty warm and sunny, and a cool breeze breathes fresh life into one’s soul. The nights become cold and windy, so tuck yourself into warm clothes or sit by a bonfire and enjoy a hot meal. One can also enjoy outdoor activities and go sightseeing.

Monsoon Season in Kedarnath

Although the temple remains open during the monsoon season, it is not the best time to visit Kedarnath. It rains about 10 -15 days of the month and heavily during this time. Some years, the monsoon season has also seen flooding in Kedarnath. If you want to visit during monsoon season, keep an eye on meteorological news and plan your itinerary carefully. You want to avoid landslides and roadblocks, too. Kedarnath weather in this season is unpredictable, but it might be an excellent time for the adventurous.

Winter Season in Kedarnath

Winters start in October and last until March. The temperature fluctuates between -15°C and 6°C. Heavy snowfall occurs in December and January, making the place inaccessible for a few months. Early winter, from October to November, is also a good time to visit Kedarnath. It is the shoulder season for tourism, as the temperatures are not super harsh yet, and the rainy season also recedes by this time. November to December is the best time to visit Kedarnath for snowfall.

    M's 7 days trip to Kedarnath

    1. One day as a stand by day is essential for Kedarnath leg of the journey as weather and terrain is very very unpredictable 2. Navicrow Holidays should have warned us of the hazards of helicopter travel in the Sirsi-Kedarnath leg, including distinct possibility of heli services being cancelled wit
    hout alternative arrangements 3. Driver must be informed person. He should the right places to lunch along the 4 dham route. Otherwise, the Driver was a very good one. 1. Kalp kedar enroute to Gangotri dham 2. All 3 dhams visited were awesome 3. The road trips along the journey of 12 days were out of the world
