Enter number of heads:
Katra is well-connected by road and rail, with the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra Railway Station providing direct train access from major cities, while Jammu Tawi Railway Station, around 45 km away, offers additional connectivity. Jammu Airport, approximately 50 km from Katra, is the nearest airport, with taxis and buses available for onward travel.
Katra is a year-round destination, but the best time for the Vaishno Devi pilgrimage is from March to October when the weather is pleasant. The winter months (November to February) offer a serene experience with occasional snowfall on the trek.
Yes, helicopter services operate between Katra and Sanjichhat, reducing travel time to just a few minutes. However, it is recommended to book in advance due to high demand.
Yes, all pilgrims must register at the Yatra Registration Counter in Katra, which is free of cost. Registration ensures security and access to facilities like medical aid and accommodations provided by the Shrine Board. Online registration is also available.
Yes, medical facilities, including dispensaries and emergency aid centers, are available along the trekking route at locations like Banganga, Adhkuwari, and Bhawan. Pilgrims with health conditions should consult a doctor before attempting the trek.
No, mobile phones, cameras, and other electronic devices are not allowed inside the temple premises. Pilgrims must deposit them in lockers available near the entrance.
Yes, the temple conducts morning and evening aarti, but entry is limited. Pilgrims can book special darshan tickets through the Shrine Board's website.
Pahalgam is a serene valley surrounded by lush green meadows, pine forests, and the Lidder River. It serves as the base for the Amarnath Yatra and offers stunning natural beauty.
Yes, Gulmarg is about 50 km from Srinagar, and it takes around 1.5-2 hours to reach. A day trip is possible, but staying overnight is recommended to enjoy the sunrise, starry nights, and adventure activities.
Yes, Kashmir is generally safe for tourists, especially in popular destinations like Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam, and Sonamarg. These areas are well-secured and receive visitors throughout the year. However, it is always advisable to stay updated on current events, follow local guidelines, and avoid restricted or sensitive areas.
Only postpaid SIM cards work in Kashmir due to security reasons. Jio, Airtel, and BSNL offer the best coverage. However, remote areas like Sonamarg and Aru Valley may have weak signals.
Major hotels and restaurants accept credit cards and UPI payments, but it’s recommended to carry cash, especially for local markets and small vendors.
Lal Chowk and Polo View Market in Srinagar are famous for Kashmiri handicrafts, Pashmina shawls, carpets, and dry fruits. Floating markets on Dal Lake offer unique shopping experiences for saffron, papier-mâché products, and traditional Kashmiri attire. Pahalgam has small local markets known for woolens, leather goods, and souvenirs.
