Frequently Asked Questions
Nearest major airport is Jammu Airport (~50 km from Katra). From Jammu or the railway station, taxis / buses to Katra. From Katra, the trek (or pony / palki / helicopter) to Bhawan.
About 4-6 hours one way on foot, depending on your pace. With pony/palki/helicopter it’s shorter.
Important spots: Srinagar (Dal Lake, Mughal gardens, shikara ride), Gulmarg (meadows + Gondola), Pahalgam (Betaab Valley, river walks), Sonamarg (glacier views).
Moderate. The trek for Vaishno Devi demands stamina; some walking & acclimatisation needed for higher altitudes in Kashmir. If there are seniors / people with health concerns, use assistive options (pony / helicopter, rest breaks).
Book well ahead (1-2 months) for peak seasons (spring, autumn). Off-season periods have fewer tourists but weather / road access may be challenging.
