Chardham Yatra by helicopter is considered one of the most comfortable ways to explore Yamunotri, Gangotri, Badrinath, and Kedarnath. All these shrines hold immense religious significance and welcome thousands of devotees from around the world. Hindus have been embarking on this spiritual journey since the Vedic era in quest of Moksha - the liberation from the cycle of birth and death. This divine journey, however, involves a strenuous trek through the rugged Himalayan ranges. And the introduction of helicopter services has made this challenging Yatra much easier and more accessible.
Your aerial journey begins at the Sahastradhara Helipad in Dehradun and we ensure a well-organised start to your pilgrimage through assistance from our well-trained crew. On selecting our meticulously crafted Char Dham helicopter package, pilgrims can capture some of the most amazing clicks of the majestic Himalayas. In addition, our Chardham Yatra helicopter tour package is inclusive of private vehicle transfers, luxury accommodations, and expert guidance. Moreover, this package includes special arrangements for senior citizens, infants, and travellers with mobility issues.
The Char Dham Yatra is open for pilgrims between May and November but experiences a surge in demand during the peak season. Similarly, the prices of helicopter tickets also tend to rise significantly during this period. Therefore, be smart and book your tickets in advance to secure the best deal. Also, our Char Dham luxury helicopter service makes this journey seamless and allows pilgrims to focus entirely on devotion. Besides this, we allow travellers to customize their itinerary as per their travel tastes.
So, why the wait? Explore our Char Dham Yatra by helicopter packages and enjoy a spiritually enriching experience with unparalleled ease and comfort.

Health Advisory
All the Char Dhams are located at high altitudes (8,500 ft - 11,500 ft), and oxygen deficiency is common. Pilgrims often feel altitude sickness under conditions of reduced air pressure and oxygen.
As your Chardham Yatra by Helicopter is only 5-6 days, you might not get enough time to acclimatize. It's best to ascend slowly and not exert yourself. And while you're in the mountains, be wary of the following common altitude sicknesses:

- Headache
- Nausea
- Vomiting

High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE): It's a very severe form of AMS. This is caused by the swelling of the brain and can even ultimately impair it. Some common symptoms are:
- Visual impairment
- Bowel dysfunction
- Partial paralysis
- Headache
- Bladder dysfunction
- Disorientation
- Fatigue
- Breathing problems
High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE): This mostly manifests during nighttime. It occurs due to the accumulation of fluid in the lungs and can lead to fatality within hours as it progresses rapidly. The most common symptoms include:
- Bright red stained sputum
- Shortness of breath even when resting
- Chest tightness
- Fatigue
- Increased heart rate
- Weakness
- Congestion
- Persistent dry cough
- Drowsiness
