Gangotri in December

MsMonty11

I'm seeing a lot of posts that say "Gangotri is closed in December". I'm assuming that refers to the temple there, correct, not the whole city? I also know the roads might be closed due to snow, but does that get cleared away? If the temples are closed is it worth it to go (will there even be any places to stay open)? Hope these aren't totally dumb questions, I would just be disappointed to miss it.

I think what I'm going to do is just play it by ear. I'm due to spend a few days in Rishikesh and wanted to go to Gangotri from there, so I guess if the roads are clear I might go, but if not stay in Rishikesh a few extra days.

the maximum you can go or the roads will be open for tourist will be till harshil. only villagers are allowed beyond harshil gates. (LIH / DW correct me )
