The Amarnath Yatra, one of India's largest religious pilgrimages, will commence on July 3, 2026, and conclude on August 28, 2026, spanning 57 days. Managed by the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board, the pilgrimage requires registration starting April 15, 2026, which can be done online via the SASB website or mobile app, or offline at designated bank branches. Participants must submit a Compulsory Health Certificate (CHC) and undergo biometric verification. Only individuals aged 13 to 70 years can register, and pregnant women beyond six weeks are not allowed. The pilgrimage can be undertaken via two routes: the traditional Pahalgam route and the shorter but steeper Baltal route. An RFID card is mandatory for entry beyond certain checkpoints, ensuring a smooth and organized pilgrimage experience.
