Before you book
Caution
The Kedarnath helicopter is not in most packages — it costs ₹8,000–₹12,000 one way per person and sells out weeks ahead in peak season. Decide upfront whether you are trekking or flying and book accordingly.
Key point
The ₹18,000–₹1,20,000 price range is not about quality alone — it is almost entirely driven by helicopter inclusion, transport type, and group size. Two packages at the same price can include very different things.
Tip
Pony and doli costs at Yamunotri and Kedarnath are separate — up to ₹18,000 combined for both if needed. If travelling with elderly family members, build this into the budget before comparing operator prices.
Helicopter Services
Kedarnath helicopter tickets sell out weeks in advance during peak season (May and October). Book exclusively via IRCTC official portal. Weight limit strictly enforced at 80kg.
*Slot availability is dynamic and subject to weather conditions.

- Special pujas and abhisheks (₹1,000–₹25,000 depending on puja)
- Meals at Kedarnath and Gangotri (limited options, expensive)
- Porter charges if luggage is heavy (₹800–₹1,500 per day)
