Chandigarh → Himachal Devi Darshan

Taxi from Chandigarh to the Kangra Devi temples

Chandigarh to Kangra (the valley of Maa Baglamukhi and the Devi temples) is about 235 km, roughly 6 hours by road. Naina Devi falls first on the way up near Anandpur Sahib, so the darshan begins before you even reach the valley. We run the full 6-temple yatra door-to-door from across the Tricity, the same car and driver throughout, on one all-in fare.

How to reach: by road it is about 6 hours via Ropar and Una; by rail, take a train to Amb Andaura (the Vande Bharat railhead) or Chandigarh and we meet you with a car; the nearest airport for the valley is Gaggal (Kangra).

From: Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula & Zirakpur (Tricity)

About this route

Chandigarh to the Devi Darshan.

Chandigarh is a natural starting point for the Himachal Devi Darshan, and the route works in your favour: Naina Devi sits right on the way up near Anandpur Sahib, so the very first darshan comes before you have even reached the valley. From there the road runs to Chintpurni in Una, then up to Jwala Ji, Baglamukhi, Brajeshwari in Kangra town and Chamunda below the Dhauladhar.

Most families from the Tricity take the yatra over two easy days with a night halt near Chintpurni or Kangra, but a fast one-day round is possible if you start before dawn. We pick you up at your door in Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula or Zirakpur, and the same car and driver stay with you the whole way.

The yatra, day by day

Day 1 — Day 2

Two days is the comfortable version. It can be squeezed into one very long day if you must (leaving Chandigarh around three in the morning and getting back after midnight), and we will do it, but we would not recommend it for anyone elderly.

Worth knowing

Why Naina Devi comes first

It stands directly on your road into Himachal. Leaving it until last would mean driving back past it, which costs about three hours for no reason.

Stay in the valley instead

Plenty of families make this three days with a night at Dharamshala on the end, which turns a yatra into a proper trip.

Adding Vaishno Devi

Katra is reachable from the Kangra valley and adds two to three days. Tell us at the quoting stage rather than mid-trip.

Before you book

Chandigarh to Devi Darshan: questions we get

How many days does the Devi Darshan from Chandigarh take?

Most pilgrims take two easy days with a night halt near Chintpurni or Kangra, which keeps the darshan calm and easy for elders. A single long day is possible if we start before dawn from Chandigarh — tell us your plan and we route it the best way.

Where in the Tricity do you pick up from?

Anywhere in Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula or Zirakpur: your home, hotel, ISBT-43/17, the airport or the railway station. We confirm the exact pickup point on WhatsApp before the day.

Which temples are covered on the Chandigarh Devi Darshan?

The full six: Naina Devi (near Anandpur Sahib), Chintpurni, Jwala Ji, Baglamukhi, Brajeshwari (Kangra Devi) and Chamunda Devi. Naina Devi falls first on the way up, so the route runs naturally without backtracking.

What does the Chandigarh to Devi Darshan fare include?

One quoted fare covers the car, driver, fuel, tolls, parking and every state-border permit on the route. Hotels, meals, prasad and pooja stay your own choice. We confirm the all-in fare on WhatsApp before you travel.
