Every devotee aspires to fulfill the Chardham pilgrimage once in their lifetime. However, the extreme weather in the regions surrounding the Himalayas makes it a challenging journey, thus, one needs to be fully prepared before starting the yatra.
Here are some of the important points to keep in mind before starting the yatra:
1.The right time to plan the trip:
● The Chardham yatra is usually done in the months from April to October.
● The month of September is usually the peak season, due to the scenic beauty in these areas, especially after the rainy season ends.
● Thus, plan the trip accordingly. One can check the Chardham Yatra package by MakeMyTrip.
● Also, don’t forget to take the necessary equipment needed in the particular season.
2. Preparing for high altitudes:
● All the four dhams are located at high altitudes. Due to the lack of sufficient oxygen in these places, one needs to be prepped to combat these challenges.
● It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to undertake this demanding journey. To prepare beforehand, it is wise to follow a strict health regime that includes exercises like brisk walks, or yoga.
● Also, it is advisable to get a checkup done at least a couple of months before the yatra, to gauge for any health hazard.
3. Planning trip in groups:
● The arduous journey uphill can challenge you mentally and physically. Although the ardent devotion of a pilgrim becomes the driving force to propel them forward, it is best to go in groups to have a fulfilling experience.
● For an enriching experience, check the Chardham helicopter package.
4. Follow all necessary guidelines:
● It is advised to follow all the safety guidelines and instructions given by the authorities for the yatra.
● This includes not indulging in risky activities and travelling alone.
● The challenging conditions could be overcome only if the protocols are carefully followed.
5. Carry all necessary equipment:
● Warm and heavy woolen clothes are always advisable, because of the high altitude.
● Some dry fruits like raisins, almonds, and cashews can also be carried, which will help the body regain energy during the long journey.
● Carry adequate amounts of cash, as ATMs are fewer in these regions and digital transactions are common here.
● Other essentials like medicines, mosquito repellents, torches, and sunscreen can also be carried, to avoid any discrepancies in the trip.
