Kedarnath (April 22, 2026)

To ensure a safe Char-Dham, the Uttarakhand Government has established a mandatory registration system for 2026. This guide provides a comprehensive roadmap for both online and offline registration.
A Journey Managed for Your Safety
Registration is much more than a formality—it is a vital safety net. By registering, you are integrated into a real-time monitoring system managed by the Uttarakhand Tourism Department and State Police. This allows authorities to:
Provide Immediate Assistance: In the event of unforeseen weather or emergencies, your location is known.
Regulate Pilgrim Influx: By enforcing daily visitor limits for each Dham, the government prevents overcrowding, ensuring a peaceful and orderly Darshan for everyone.
Ensure Resource Availability: Tracking movement helps the state manage essential supplies like food, lodging, and medical aid along the high-altitude routes.
While most devotees prefer the convenience of the online portal or mobile app, offline counters are also available at key transit points for those planning a last-minute journey.
