Most people underestimate this and end up rushing the yatra which defeats the whole purpose. A comfortable Char Dham from Delhi covering all four: Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath needs a minimum 12 to 14 days if you want to do it peacefully.
The drive distances are long and mountain roads slow you down naturally. Yamunotri and Kedarnath also involve treks or pony rides which add half a day each. Factor in one rest day at Haridwar while going and one while returning — your body will thank you especially if you have elderly members.
Char Dham yatra season runs from May to June and then September to October. Avoid July and August if possible because monsoon makes the mountain roads unpredictable and risky.
Planning a proper Delhi to Char Dham Tempo Traveller itinerary with buffer days makes the yatra spiritually fulfilling rather than just a checklist trip.
