Char Dham Yatra from Hyderabad: how to reach the start, the 9 nights and 10 days ex-Haridwar itinerary from ₹26,900 per person, and the days to set aside.
Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath, joined to a departure from Hyderabad. The yatra itself starts in Uttarakhand, so what changes from one city to the next is how you reach the start and how many days to set aside either side of it.
Getting to the start from Hyderabad
By air. Direct flights connect Hyderabad with Dehradun's Jolly Grant airport, and Delhi is served many times a day if the Dehradun timing does not suit your dates.
By rail. Hyderabad to Haridwar by train takes the better part of two days, which is why it is usually kept for travellers who want the journey to be part of the trip.
With a non-stop flight into Dehradun, the ex-Haridwar itinerary is the shorter of the two road options from Hyderabad. Allow a day at each end for the flights.
