Kedarnath Packages From Mumbai

Best Time to Visit Kedarnath:

You should book a Kedarnath package from Mumbai for the summer season. This is the most-preferred time for tourists to book a Kedarnath tour package from Mumbai as the temperature is usually moderate and comforting between 15-30 degrees Celsius. This is the reason why most people opt for Mumbai to Kedarnath packages during this period. It is a great time to visit the Mandir and nearby temples and attractions.

Most people also book a Mumbai to Kedarnath tour package in the monsoon season (July to September) since the climate is pleasant with mild to heavy rainfall. A Kedarnath Yatra package from Mumbai should not be booked in the winter season (October to March), since temperatures drop below the freezing point in the region and there is heavy snowfall throughout the region. The main temple also stays closed from November to mid-April due to these reasons. Hence, tourists avoid booking Delhi to Kedarnath packages or holidays during these seasons.

How to Reach Kedarnath from Mumbai:

Are you booking a Kedarnath package from Mumbai? You should work out the travel arrangements for your Kedarnath tour package from Mumbai beforehand. Most Mumbai to Kedarnath packages will include flights to the Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun. It is only 2 hours and 10 minutes away from Mumbai by air (if you take a direct flight). Alternatively, you can also fly to Delhi as a part of your Mumbai to Kedarnath tour package and then take another connecting flight to Dehradun which will take you around an hour.

You can then take a bus or taxi to Guptkashi from the Jolly Grant Airport. Your Kedarnath Yatra package from Mumbai will include the subsequent helicopter or pony ride or trek to the temple. You can also take a bus or taxi to Sonprayag from Dehradun and then embark on the trek to the Kedarnath temple. This is another option for those booking a Kedarnath package from Kolkata or any other city.
