3-star hotels in Barkot
A shortlist of the 3-star hotels in Barkot, the Uttarkashi district town that serves as an overnight halt for the Yamunotri leg of the Char Dham pilgrimage. It is meant for pilgrims, couples, families and road travellers who want a simple, well-placed base in the Garhwal hills.
Staying in Barkot
Barkot sits in the Garhwal Himalaya and has a pleasant summer climate that draws visitors up from the heat of the plains. The area is known for its apple orchards and terraced fields, and visitors can see the ancient Yamuna Temple or take a dip in the river. It remains a peaceful, rural town and is a good place to experience the culture and traditions of the region, whether you are passing through or staying a while. Barkot is also a stopover for the Char Dham pilgrimage, particularly for those going on to Yamunotri and Gangotri, and it is about 50 km from Janki Chatti, the starting point of the Yamunotri trek.
The hotels on this list are spread across the town and its approaches rather than in one cluster. Several sit right in the town centre, within 0.6 km of the middle of Barkot, while others line the Yamunotri road and the Vikasnagar road out of town, up to 6.8 km away. That spread suits different travellers: those who want to step out to the market and transport, and those who prefer a quieter setting on the road towards the temple.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Barkot is well-connected by road. From New Delhi, it is about 400 km via NH7 and NH34, a journey of around 10-12 hours by car or bus. The nearest airport is Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, about 170 km away, and the nearest railway station is in Dehradun or Rishikesh. Buses and shared taxis run from Rishikesh and Dehradun to Barkot. Within Barkot, local taxis and auto-rickshaws can be hired for short trips, and many hotels are within walking distance of the main market.
When to go
The best time to visit Barkot is from March to June, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for outdoor activities, and from September to November, after the monsoon, when the skies are clear and the views are spectacular. Summers are mild to warm, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 30°C. Winters (December to February) can be cold, sometimes dropping near freezing, but the town remains accessible; the monsoon months (July to August) bring heavy rainfall and the risk of landslides, so travel then requires caution.
