One of India's most popular pilgrimage journeys, the Adi Kailash Yatra has commenced with the arrival of the first group of pilgrims at the Dharchula base camp in Uttarakhand. With more than 500 pilgrims from all over the country already committed to the yatra this year, this is a spiritual travel experience that should not be missed. This remarkable pilgrimage trek offers camps in stunning locations such as Pithoragarh, Dharchula, Gunji, Bundi, Chaukori, and Bhimtal. The current phase of the Adi Kailash yatra will continue through May and June. The yatra will remain closed during the monsoon months of July and August, and resume from September to November. The Uttarakhand Tourism Development Board (UTDB) had earlier launched India's inaugural helicopter yatra for Adi Kailash, and for Om Parvat.
