The pilgrimage attracts thousands of devotees annually, offering spiritual fulfilment and a chance to explore the natural beauty of the Himalayas. However, the high-altitude terrain and unpredictable weather can pose challenges, especially for elderly pilgrims and those with health conditions. Monsoon months (July to September) bring risks of landslides and heavy rainfall, which may disrupt travel plans. Pilgrims are advised to prepare adequately and follow safety guidelines to minimise risks.
