The opening date for Kedarnath in 2023 is yet to be officially announced by the authorities. However, traditionally, the Kedarnath temple opens its doors to devotees in the last week of April or the first week of May, depending on the auspicious timing of the Akshaya Tritiya festival. This festival, celebrated on the third day of the Hindu month of Vaishakha, is considered to be a highly auspicious day for beginning new ventures, including the opening of religious sites.
