Choosing where to stay

  • Near the bus stand / registration counter: the most convenient base for an early start. You can walk to the Yatra Registration Counter and towards Banganga.
  • Near the railway station: handy if you arrive late or leave early by train, but further from the start of the Yatra.
  • On the mountain: the Shrine Board runs rooms and dormitories at Adhkuwari, Sanjichhat and the Bhawan, plus free rest halls. These are useful if you want to stay overnight near the shrine.
  • In Jammu: Shrine Board accommodation near Jammu railway station (Vaishnavi Dham, Saraswati Dham, Kalika Dham) suits pilgrims breaking the journey.
