📍 Why Online Slots Are Limited but Offline Isn’t a Dead End
Online slots for Kedarnath, Badrinath, Yamunotri, and Gangotri often get booked within days—especially during long weekends, summer vacations, and May-June rush.
But here’s what many yatris don’t know:
The Uttarakhand government keeps 30–40% offline quotas at select locations.
These are walk-in counters, available early mornings, mostly at Rishikesh, Haridwar, Sonprayag, Guptkashi, Joshimath, and Phata.

Keep these ready in both hard copy and digital format:
Aadhaar card or passport (for ID proof)
Recent passport-size photo
Emergency contact number
A soft copy on your phone (optional but helps)
🗓️ 2. Reach Early to the Nearest Offline Counter
These are the most active offline counters as per 2024 Yatra:
Rishikesh ISBT Bus Stand

Sonprayag Entry Gate (for Kedarnath)
Phata & Guptkashi Helpdesks
