Haridwar draws thousands of pilgrims and tourists every evening for the iconic Ganga Aarti held at Har Ki Pauri. April is vibrant—temperatures are rising, but evenings are pleasant, and festivals like Chaitra Navratri and Hanuman Jayanti add spiritual energy.

Occasional April drizzles can happen, but they’re usually brief. Keep a foldable umbrella or poncho just in case. A waterproof phone pouch is handy near the ghats.
