Amarnath Yatra 2027

Important: The Amarnath Yatra 2027 dates, registration timings and fees have not been announced yet. The Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) notifies them each year. Details on this page follow the 2026 yatra (3 July to 28 August 2026, advance registration from 15 April 2026) and will be updated once SASB publishes the 2027 schedule. Always confirm dates and rules on the official portal, jksasb.nic.in.

About the Amarnath Yatra

The holy cave of Amarnath, at about 3,888 metres in the Kashmir Himalayas, houses a naturally formed ice lingam of Lord Shiva. Every summer lakhs of pilgrims undertake the yatra, which is organised by the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB). Pilgrims reach the cave by two routes – the shorter Baltal route near Sonamarg and the traditional Pahalgam route – on foot, by pony or palki, or with a helicopter shuttle to Panjtarni.

What we know about the 2027 timeline

The 2027 dates are not yet announced. For reference, the 2026 yatra ran from 3 July to 28 August (57 days), and advance registration opened on 15 April 2026 through the SASB portal and designated bank branches. The yatra season has historically fallen in July and August and ended on or near Shravan Purnima (Raksha Bandhan). Use that only as a planning guide, and book travel after your date is allotted.

Amarnath Yatra 2027 – frequently asked questions

Have the Amarnath Yatra 2027 dates been announced?

Not yet. The Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board announces the dates each year. In 2026 the yatra ran for 57 days from 3 July to 28 August, and advance registration opened on 15 April. For 2027, please wait for the official notification on jksasb.nic.in before booking flights or trains.

Is registration compulsory for the Amarnath Yatra?

Yes. Pilgrims must hold a valid registration and travel on the date and route allotted to them. A Compulsory Health Certificate from an authorised doctor is part of the process. Read our step-by-step guide to Amarnath Yatra registration 2027.

Can Acme Tour & Travels arrange a helicopter for the yatra?

We include helicopter arrangements in our helicopter packages, subject to ticket availability, the Shrine Board’s rules and weather. Helicopter flights can be delayed or cancelled in bad weather, so we cannot guarantee a seat or time slot until it is confirmed. See Amarnath Yatra by helicopter 2027.

Which route is better – Pahalgam or Baltal?

Baltal is the shorter and steeper route and is the one most often chosen for a quick one-day darshan. The Pahalgam route is the traditional, longer trek via Chandanwari and Sheshnag. Our guides to the Baltal route and the Pahalgam route explain the difference in detail.

What should I carry on the Amarnath Yatra?

Carry your registration papers, photo ID, health certificate, warm thermals, a waterproof jacket, gloves, a cap, sturdy trekking shoes, regular medicines and a water bottle. Weather at the shrine can change quickly even in July and August.
