A Kedarnath and Badrinath tour covers two of the four sacred Dhams, offering a meaningful shorter pilgrimage for those with limited time. Kedarnath, a revered Jyotirlinga at around 3,580 metres, is reached by a demanding trek or helicopter, while Badrinath, the Vishnu shrine below Neelkanth peak, is accessible by road. Holiday Vibez arranges the Do Dham journey with comfortable stays, reliable transfers and an optional helicopter leg; we assist with logistics, but darshan timings and road and helicopter access remain subject to the authorities and mountain weather. The shrines are seasonal, open roughly May to October.

About the Do Dham

The Kedarnath and Badrinath circuit is ideal for pilgrims seeking a shorter yet complete Himalayan darshan. It usually takes five to seven days and combines a demanding mountain shrine with an accessible riverside one. The helicopter option makes Kedarnath reachable for those who cannot manage the long trek.

Kedarnath Trek and Helicopter

Kedarnath sits at the end of a steep 16 km trek from Gaurikund.

  • Trek on foot with optional pony or palanquin support
  • Or take a helicopter from Phata, Sersi or Guptkashi
  • Book helicopters early as slots are limited and weather dependent
We help arrange your preferred option, subject to availability.

Season and Weather

Both shrines open around late April or May and close by around Diwali, so the tour runs roughly May to October. High-Himalaya weather is unpredictable, and rain can affect roads and helicopter flights. We plan sensible buffers, but we cannot control access or timings.

How to Reach

The nearest airport is Dehradun, from where the journey is entirely by mountain road to the trek and temple points. Rishikesh is a common starting base. Flights from South India are additional to the land package and best booked with some schedule flexibility.

Altitude and Fitness

Kedarnath's altitude and trek demand reasonable fitness and gradual acclimatisation. Light cardio beforehand, good hydration and warm clothing all help. Anyone with heart or breathing conditions should consult a doctor and consider the helicopter option.

Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.
