Gangotri is one of the four sacred dhams of the Chota Char Dham Yatra and one of the holiest sites in Hinduism: the town from which the Goddess Ganga is believed to have descended to Earth, and the starting point for the trek to Gaumukh, the glacier snout that is the actual source of the Bhagirathi River. Situated at 3,415 metres in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, surrounded by towering peaks and ancient deodar forests, Gangotri has a raw Himalayan beauty unlike anything encountered on more accessible mountain journeys. Gangotri tour packages from Aasaan Holidays are planned with the care and logistical precision this high-altitude destination requires.
The Gangotri Temple, dedicated to Goddess Ganga and open from May to November, sits above the roaring Bhagirathi at a bend in the river that has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. The evening aarti at the temple and the trek to Gaumukh through the Gangotri National Park are the defining experiences. A Gangotri Yatra Package from Aasaan Holidays covers the full pilgrimage with well-chosen overnight stops. Gangotri travel packages are available both as standalone journeys and as part of the complete Char Dham circuit.

Most Gangotri travel packages include hotel stays along the route, temple darshan, guided Gaumukh trek (optional), all road transport, and meals at key stops.
When is the best time to visit Gangotri?
May to June and September to October are ideal. The temple opens on Akshaya Tritiya and closes on Diwali. July and August bring heavy monsoon rains that can make the roads unpredictable.
How many days are needed for Gangotri?
A minimum of 5 to 6 days from Haridwar or Rishikesh, accounting for the mountain drive. Including the Gaumukh trek adds 2 days. The full Char Dham circuit requires 12 to 16 days.
Is the Gaumukh trek mandatory?
No. The Gangotri Temple is the primary pilgrimage site and is accessible without trekking. The Gaumukh glacier trek is an additional 18 km round trip for physically fit travellers. Aasaan Holidays plans both options within the Gangotri trip package.
What is the Gangotri holiday package price?
The Gangotri holiday package price depends on your starting point, group size, and whether the Gaumukh trek is included. Contact Aasaan Holidays for a personalised quote.
