Best Time to Visit Badrinath in 2026
The best time for your Badrinath Yatra by car from Delhi in 2026 is from May to June and September to October. During these months, the mountain weather is pleasant (15°C to 25°C), which is perfect for temple visits and sightseeing.
In 2026, the Badrinath Temple will open in late April and close in November. We suggest you avoid the monsoon months of July and August. During this time, heavy rain can cause landslides and roadblocks on the mountain highways. For a safe and smooth Badrinath Yatra by car from Delhi, plan your trip during the peak summer or autumn months.
