The ideal time to visit the Sapt Rishi Ashram in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, is during the months of February to April, and then again from August to October. These periods coincide with the transition from winter to summer and monsoon to autumn respectively. The weather during these months is generally pleasant and conducive for exploring the ashram and participating in its activities without the extremities of climate such as the scorching heat of the summers or the chilling cold of the winters which Haridwar experiences.
Visiting the ashram during these months not only ensures a comfortable stay but can also align with various Hindu festivals when special rituals and events are observed. Festivals such as Maha Shivaratri in February or March, and the Kanwar Yatra during July or August, increase the cultural richness of your visit, even though these times might be a bit crowded. The relatively moderate temperatures make it easier for tourists to indulge in peaceful meditation, attend spiritual discourses, and participate in the Ganga Aarti by the ghats which are significant attractions of the Sapt Rishi Ashram.
