Honest Travel Advisory
Who this Amarnath Yatra via Baltal itinerary is NOT for
- •Anyone without registration: Registration with the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board and a Compulsory Health Certificate from an authorised doctor are mandatory. Without them you cannot join the yatra.
- •Anyone with a heart or lung condition: The cave is at about 3,900 m. Take medical advice first; the Board sets age and health limits every year.
If any of these apply to your party, speak to us and we will adapt the route.
Before you book
Questions on this itinerary.
When is the Amarnath Yatra?
The Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board announces the dates each year, usually for July and August. We plan around the official schedule.
Baltal or Pahalgam route?
Baltal is shorter and steeper, done in one long day. The Pahalgam route via Chandanwari and Sheshnag takes about three days. We can arrange either.
