Do Dham Yatra is one of the famous Hindu pilgrimages in Uttarakhand that includes visiting the two significant holy sites, Badrinath and Kedarnath Shrines. When and how these pilgrims got associated with Do Dham, is not known yet. Although, both of these places have high relevance in Hinduism and have a legendary history.

The pilgrims start their journey from the Kedarnath Dham (the abode of Lord Shiva) and then proceed to the Badrinath Temple (the temple of Lord Vishnu). This concludes their Do Dham Yatra.

Best time to visit Do Dham Yatra

Though most people live to visit the Do Dham Yatra during the monsoon season, we would suggest you avoid visiting during this period. The best time to visit here is between May and June when you can experience clear skies, little rain or humidity in the air, and amazing floral arrangements that will make your trip worth it. As July and August are months of the rainy season, so the Do Dham Yatra should be avoided during this period. September to November is considered the colder months and many people also love to visit during this time. People who are able to tackle extreme weather conditions can do Do Dham Yatra during this time.
