The Trek: It is about 12–13 km from Katra to the Bhawan. You can walk, or take a pony, palki, battery car or helicopter (Katra–Sanjichhat) for most of the climb.

🌲

Best Time: March–October is pleasant; the Navratri period is the busiest. Winters are cold with occasional snow near the top.

✈️

How to Reach: Fly to Jammu (IXJ) or take the train to Katra (SVDK); it is a short drive to the base. We handle all transfers.
