The destinations covered in Char Dham by helicopter tour are Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath—the four main temples every Hindu hopes to visit at least once. These are located high up in the Uttarakhand Himalayas, and doing the yatra by road usually takes 10 to 12 days. But with the helicopter tour, you can complete the entire circuit in just 4–5 days, without the exhaustion or long travel hours.
Yamunotri Ji: The 4 Dham by helicopter tour begins at Yamunotri, with a helipad at Kharshali Village. The temple, dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, marks the origin of the Yamuna River. Pilgrims believe a dip in the holy waters grants purity and salvation, making it a sacred start to your 4 Dham helicopter tour.
Gangotri Ji: Next is Gangotri, accessible via Harshil helipad. The temple honors Goddess Ganga, with the Ganges’ origin nearby. Known for its spiritual power and ever-pure waters, a visit to Gangotri is central to any Chardham Yatra by helicopter.
Kedarnath Ji: Located at 3,583 meters, Kedarnath is reached via helipads at Sirsi, Phata, or Guptkashi. The temple, a Jyotirlinga of Lord Shiva, is one of the most powerful sites on the helicopter Char Dham Yatra. It was revived by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century and is steeped in mythological significance.
Badrinath Ji: Concluding the yatra is Badrinath, dedicated to Lord Vishnu and part of both the Char Dham and Chota Char Dham circuits. Located at 3,100 meters, the shrine is just 1 km from the helipad. Highlights include the Maha Abhishek in the morning and Shyan Aarti at night.
Chardham Yatra by helicopter includes visits to Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath, all located between 8,500 and 11,500 feet above sea level. These are high-altitude regions where oxygen levels drop and air pressure is lower than normal. Sudden changes in altitude, especially with fast helicopter movement, can lead to altitude-related health issues.
Since the helicopter tour to Char Dham is completed in just 4 to 5 days, the body may not have time to adapt. Continuous travel, short layovers, and walking uphill without rest can trigger high altitude sickness.
Acute Mountain Sickness during Char Dham travel is common when you cross 2,500 meters in altitude. Symptoms include breathing difficulty, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, fatigue, weakness, appetite loss, and sleep issues.
High Altitude Cerebral Edema during Kedarnath trip is a severe condition caused by brain swelling. This can begin with confusion, blurred vision, shortness of breath, coordination problems, and body control issues. If untreated, it can become fatal within hours.
Pulmonary edema in Badrinath or Kedarnath is another critical condition. It is caused by fluid buildup in the lungs. Warning signs include dry cough, breathlessness even at rest, chest tightness, red or pink sputum, drowsiness, and irregular heartbeat.
During your Char Dham helicopter journey, move slowly, rest after landing, eat light food, drink enough water, and avoid alcohol or smoking. Stay covered in warm layers and keep an eye out for any symptoms.
If you have heart conditions, lung problems, asthma, or any breathing disorder, consult your doctor before booking a Char Dham helicopter tour. Share your medical background with the tour operator. Hospitals are not available at high altitudes. Medical evacuation by helicopter is possible, but it depends on the weather and landing permissions.
This advisory is for travelers planning the Do Dham or Char Dham Yatra by air. Knowing the risks and responding early helps prevent health complications and ensures a safer pilgrimage experience.

Packing smart is key for a smooth Chardham by helicopter tours. Since space is limited in helicopters and the journey moves fast between high-altitude locations like Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath, your luggage should be light, compact, and essential-only. Here’s how to prepare practically for this short, high-altitude tour.
For this 4 to 5-day helicopter pilgrimage, carry only one small duffel or soft bag, ideally under 5–7 kg. Hard suitcases are not allowed. Pack clothing suitable for chilly mornings and warm afternoons. Layering is important.
Carry thermals, a fleece or light sweater, a windproof jacket, full-sleeve T-shirts, and track pants or cotton trousers. A woolen cap, muffler, and gloves are must-haves for early morning darshans, especially at Kedarnath. Avoid jeans and heavy ethnic wear — they are hard to manage in changing weather and uneven terrain.
Footwear should be lightweight, waterproof, and have good grip. Sports shoes or trekking shoes are ideal. Carry a pair of slippers or floaters for the hotel.
In your day bag, keep essentials like sunglasses, sunscreen (SPF 50+), lip balm, a small towel, reusable water bottle, and wet wipes. Add a power bank, torch, mobile charger, and enough cash. ATMs are not reliable in high-altitude regions.
Include a small personal medical kit with prescribed medicines, ORS packets, pain relief spray, altitude sickness tablets (if advised by a doctor), and basic first aid. Keep your ID proof, Yatra registration, and hotel booking printouts handy.
Avoid overpacking. You won’t need too many clothes or snacks — most helicopter packages include food and accommodation. Travel light for easier movement and quicker boarding.
