The Vaishno Devi Trek offers pilgrims several routes to reach the sacred shrine atop the Trikuta Mountains in Jammu and Kashmir, India. The most popular path, the Ban Ganga route, starts from Katra and stretches over 13 kilometers. This trail passes through picturesque landscapes and is dotted with refreshment stalls and resting points. Another route, the Ardhkuwari route, is shorter but steeper, covering about 6 kilometers. It begins from the Ardhkuwari Temple and involves climbing numerous stairs. The Sanjichhat route, accessible by helicopter or on foot, offers stunning aerial views and is ideal for those seeking a shorter journey.
