3. Yamunotri Yatra is the beginning of the Char Dham Yatra, which is considered to be the
holiest pilgrim for Hindus. A vast majority of Hindus believe that a visit to the Char Dhams
is essential to get rid of the cycle of life and death and attain moksha. It is located about
3293 meters above sea level and is hence open only from May to October. The winters
are extremely cold and massive snowfall cuts off the region from the rest of the world.
Various Yamunotri tours are popular with people with different requirements and
different budgets.
A tour to Yamunotri is organized by a vast variety of travel agents and tour operators. This
is the place from there the River Yamuna originates and hence the mythological
significance. The fact is that this is one of the most beautiful places in the country and is
hence visited by a large number of tourists from all over the world and not just Hindus
from the northern part of India.

4. A Yamunotri pilgrimage tour involves a
visit to Yamunotri, a place that is
believed to be the home of Asit Muni.
This hermitage had a bath in both the
Yamuna and the Ganga each and every
day. Due to old age, he was not able to
go to Gangotri and it was them that a
stream of the Ganges appeared in front
of him. A temple was built at the very
place, which opens on Akshaya Tritya,
usually towards the last week of April or
early May and closes on Diwali in mid-
October. Once the temple has been
closed, the temple staff returns to their
villages and the entire region is covered
with snow. Not even a single person can
reach this place during the winters and
the priests and the staff return when the
snow melts in April. They are ready to
welcome the millions of visitors when
the temple doors open.

5. Various Yamunotri tours include travel
either by air, rail or by road. The
nearest airport is the Jolly Grant and
the nearest railway station is Rishikesh.
There are options for people with
different budgets and different
requirements. All you need to do is to
search the internet and find the option
that is best suited to your
requirements and budget. Certain
Yamunotri tour packages include just
the accommodation while others
include the to and fro travel,
accommodation as well as Darshan.
Some packages also include a
helicopter ride that allows you to
complete the Darshan in a relatively
short duration of time.

6. The best time to visit Yamunotri is during May, June, September and October. July
and August experience a lot of rainfall while the months from November to April
experience extreme winters. This is the time of the year when a large number of
devotees and tourists throng this temple town and hence it is important to make a
reservation in advance so as to get a confirmed booking and also save money in the
long run.
