The influx of pilgrims to Shri Manimahesh Dham persisted on Tuesday as part of the ongoing Manimahesh Yatra 2026.

According to Sub-Divisional Magistrate (Civil) Bharmaur, Ajay Kumar Singh, a total of 1,553 devotees embarked on their journey from Hadsar via the traditional footpath leading to Manimahesh.

Additionally, 25 pilgrims chose to travel through the Holi–Kalah footpath, aiming for the revered Kailash Darshan.

Unfortunately, due to adverse weather conditions and significant cloud cover in Bharmaur and Gaurikund, the heli-taxi service was suspended on Tuesday. Officials have indicated that flights will only resume once the weather improves.
