Most of Devotees visit Kedarnath Badrinath in May June every year. But best time to visit Kedarnath Badrinath is September and October. Best time to visit Kedarnath Badrinath is September to November. Because September and October weather is very pleasant with very few chances of rain. Also, less number of visitors compared to May and June in September to November gives the best opportunity for Darshan. This period gives the best chance to offer proper prayer without any hassle. In addition, this period gives you the best opportunity to explore various places because traveling time is lower due to less traffic. Also, Hotel and transport rates are much lower compared to May June.
Though most of the pilgrims visit in May June because of summer vacation in India also they think it is the best time because of high promotion by travels agents. But once they reach and see a huge number of people and a long queue in temples for Darshan. That makes it difficult for devotees especially old age to stand in long lines for 6 -8 hours for Darshan. Not only Darshan, even reaching the temple takes much more time because of traffic jams. In addition, hotel and transport rates are much higher in May June compare to September October.
Weather in Kedarnath Badrinath remains cold throughout the yatra season. Day Temperature around 10-15 degrees Celsius and night temperature around 2 to 10 degrees Celsius. Wind in these places are very chilly. Rest places reroute have very pleasant weather. Rudraprayag, Guptkashi, Joshimath around 15-20 degree Celsius. I strongly advise to come with all winter clothes.
