Best Time to Book Chardham Tour Package from Orissa

The Chardham tour package from Orissa cannot be taken for almost six months in the year- from November to March. These are the winter months where snow completely blankets most regions, especially the ancient temples since they are located at a high altitude. It remains severely cold and tourist access is completely stopped. Between April and June is ideal to plan your travel. You can comfortably pay homage at the Chardham shrines without worrying about the extreme weather conditions. Monsoons last from July to August and are accompanied by heavy rainfall. It is best to avoid this season as landslides are a common occurrence. September and October are also the tourist months and great to explore if you can bare a certain amount of cold.
