The Chardham Yatra will begin on April 22 with the opening of the Yamunotri and Gangotri temples. Kedarnath will open on April 25 and Badrinath on April 27.

The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has been authorised for online booking for the convenience of pilgrims travelling to Kedarnath Dham by helicopter.
