The closing date for Kedarnath Temple in 2024 is expected to be November 20. The exact date is typically fixed two days after Diwali, which falls on November this year. Kedarnath closes for the winter season due to heavy snowfall that makes the area inaccessible. Pilgrims are advised to plan their visit accordingly.
The Kedarnath Temple is scheduled to close for the winter season on November 20, 2024, which coincides with the auspicious occasion of Bhai Dooj. This date marks the end of the pilgrimage season for the year, after which the temple doors will remain shut until they reopen in the following spring.
For those planning to visit Kedarnath before it closes, it’s important to note that the opening date for the temple in 2024 is May 10. This date, chosen during Maha Shivratri, marks the beginning of the pilgrimage season.
