During your Vaishno Devi Trip, you will be exploring the top destinations that are as follows:

• Jammu: Jammu is a city and Indian administrated union territory. It shares good road and rail connectivity with major and minor Indian cities. Pilgrims who don’t have direct trains to Katra visit Jammu to reach the Vaishno Devi Temple.
• Katra: It serves as the base camp of the Vaishno Devi trek. One needs to reach Katra to embark on the spiritual journey of the Vaishno Devi Yatra. It is the pilgrimage town located in the foothills of the Trikuta Mountain and known simply as Vaishno Devi.
• Vaishno Devi Cave: The main highlight of the Vaishno Devi trip is the Vaishno Devi cave or temple you will visit. Mata Vaishno Devi is sitting inside a cave. Earlier, people used to crawl into the cave called Garbha Gufa to have Mata’s darshan. The cave remains closed almost throughout the year and opens for pilgrims from Makar Sankranti to Holi. For the rest of the year, devotees walk through a new cave that is large enough to walk properly and not crawl to have darshan of the Pindis or deities.

Best Time to Visit Mata Vaishno Devi

Vaishno Devi is a year-round tourist destination in India. It remains open throughout the year, so you can plan your trip as per your convenience.

• However, the best time to visit Mata Vaishno Devi is March, April, May, and June. Although the days can be quite hot, the temperature in the evening drops, making it convenient for travelers to ascend the hill.
• One should avoid the monsoon from July to September as the risk of sudden mudslides is higher at that time.
• Winter can be extremely cold at Vaishno Devi, but the Garbha Gufa opens from January to February/March. So, many devotees make a Vaishno Devi trip plan during winter.
