The ideal time to visit Kedarnath is from late May to early October. During these months, the weather is generally pleasant, with temperatures ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making the trek and pilgrimage comfortable. The Kedarnath Temple opens in late April or early May, following the winter closure due to heavy snowfall. Summer and early autumn offer clear skies and beautiful views of the surrounding Himalayas. The monsoon season (July to September) brings heavy rains and potential landslides, which can make travel challenging. Thus, planning your visit during the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon periods ensures a safer and more enjoyable experience.
