Chardham Yatra 2026: Complete Guide to the Deluxe 11 Nights / 12 Days Tour Package by NFTT World
Starting from ₹46,999 per person | Ex. Haridwar | Pure Veg & Jain Food Included
Some journeys are just trips. Then there's the Chardham Yatra — a pilgrimage that changes something deep inside you. Nestled in the mighty Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, the four sacred shrines of Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath together form one of the most spiritually powerful circuits in all of Hinduism. Millions of devotees complete this yatra every year. If you've been waiting for the right time, the right package, and the right companions — this is it.
NFTT World Pvt. Ltd. (Nagfani Tours and Travels) brings you a thoughtfully crafted Deluxe Chardham Yatra Tour Package — 11 Nights / 12 Days, starting at just ₹46,999 per person ex. Haridwar.
Why Chardham Yatra Is a Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience
Hindus believe completing the Chardham Yatra washes away all sins and opens the path to moksha (liberation). The four dhams sit at extreme elevations, surrounded by snow-capped peaks, roaring rivers, and ancient forests. You don't just visit these temples — you earn them. Every steep trail, every chilly morning, and every hour of prayer becomes part of your story.
Think of it like this: climbing to Kedarnath isn't just a trek. It's a conversation with Lord Shiva himself, 3,583 metres above sea level.
At a Glance — Tour Highlights
The Complete Day-by-Day Itinerary
Day 1 — Arrival at Haridwar
Your spiritual journey begins the moment you step off the train at Haridwar Railway Station. The NFTT World team greets you with a warm welcome. You check into your hotel — the Jammu Yatri Bhawan or similar — and the evening is yours to rest. After a long journey, you'll appreciate this quiet start. Dinner is included.
Day 2 — Haridwar to Barkot (170 km | ~5 hours)
Rise early. The mountains are calling. You drive through the lush Uttarakhand valleys toward Barkot, your base for the next two nights. The roads wind through forests, small hill towns, and river crossings that feel like scenes from another world. Rest up — tomorrow is big.
Day 3 — Yamunotri Dham Darshan 🙏
This is your first dham. You drive 40 km to Jankichatti. Then comes the real part — a 6 km trek on foot to Yamunotri Dham, the source of the sacred Yamuna River. The trek is moderate but deeply rewarding. The temple sits in a narrow gorge, flanked by hot springs and waterfalls. After darshan, you return to Barkot for dinner and an overnight stay.
Pro tip: Carry a small cloth bag with rice or potatoes. You can cook them in the natural hot springs right beside the temple — it's a centuries-old tradition.
Day 4 — Barkot to Uttarkashi (80 km | ~2.5 hours)
A shorter travel day gives you time to breathe. You move to Uttarkashi, a bustling Himalayan town on the banks of the Bhagirathi River. This city is home to the famous Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Use the evening to explore the local market or simply sit by the river and let the sound of water do its thing.
Day 5 — Gangotri Dham Darshan 🙏
You wake up early for the 100 km drive to Gangotri, the origin of the River Ganga. The Gangotri Temple, painted brilliantly white, stands against the backdrop of the Bhagirathi peaks like something out of a dream. Seek the blessings of Goddess Ganga. Then return to Uttarkashi for a warm meal and a well-earned rest.
Day 6 — Uttarkashi to Sitapur (220 km | ~7 hours)
This is your longest drive — but don't let that put you off. The route passes through breathtaking mountain terrain that makes every kilometre worth it. You reach Sitapur in the evening and check into JPG Palace or Vishnu Palace or similar. Rest, eat, and mentally prepare for what comes next. Kedarnath awaits.
Day 7 — Kedarnath Dham Darshan 🙏
Here's where the yatra truly tests your devotion. From Sitapur, you take a Union Taxi (at your own expense, not included) to Gauri Kund. Then begins the iconic 18 km trek to Kedarnath — one of the most revered Jyotirlingas in India. The path is rugged. The air is thin. But when you stand before the ancient stone temple of Lord Shiva with the snow-dusted Kedarnath peak watching over you, all of it melts away. You stay overnight at Kedarnath — a truly rare experience. Only breakfast is included here, as food at Kedarnath is not part of the package.
Day 8 — Kedarnath to Karnaprayag (~100 km | ~3.5 hours)
After your divine overnight at Kedarnath, you begin the descent. The drive to Karnaprayag takes you through Guptkashi and the stunning Mandakini valley. Karnaprayag sits at the confluence of the Alaknanda and Pindar rivers — a spot of quiet, natural beauty. Lunch and dinner included.
Day 9 — Drive to Badrinath (~120 km | ~4 hours)
The journey to Badrinath follows the Alaknanda River through Chamoli and Joshimath. The road hugs cliffs and offers views that will leave you speechless. You arrive, check into Urvashi or Badri Valley Hotel or similar, and rest for the next morning's darshan.
Day 10 — Badrinath Dham Darshan + Mana Village 🙏
Early morning. The bell rings. You walk to the Badrinath temple — dedicated to Lord Vishnu and considered the most sacred of all four dhams. After darshan, visit Mana Village, the last inhabited village before the Tibet border. It's also said to be the place where the Pandavas passed on their way to heaven. After this deeply moving visit, you drive back to Karnaprayag for the night.
Day 11 — Karnaprayag to Haridwar (~190 km | ~5 hours)
Your last major drive. You wind down from the mountains back to the holy city of Haridwar. The contrast is striking — from pine-scented mountain air to the Ganga ghats and aarti lamps below. Tonight is your last night of the yatra. Reflect. Be grateful.
Day 12 — Drop at Haridwar Railway Station
Breakfast. Then goodbyes. The NFTT World team drops you to Haridwar Railway Station, and the yatra officially concludes — but honestly, it never really ends. You carry it with you forever.
Hotel Stay Overview
A gentle reminder from the package: hotels in pilgrimage zones like Kedarnath and Badrinath are basic by nature. Don't expect five-star comforts up in the Himalayas — expect something far more valuable. Authenticity.
