Today, we will do trekking of Vaishno Devi shrine, which is around 13 Kms and at an altitude of an around 6000 Ft. (at Bhairo baba) from the sea level. There are few essentials which one need to know and carry on the trek:-

a.            The Yatra Parchi (Journey Slip).

b.            Video Shooting not allowed.

c.             The room reservation papers if any.

d.            The one or two spares garments as per season / weather.

e.            A torch and an umbrella.

f.             Canvas shoes if you are to go on foot.

During the trek, you may see lots of pilgrims and rush on the route because of the Holidays and this will be best to watch and to feel the real Indian Crowd. People will be in Festive mood all around, lots of eateries and “bhajans” during this time. Trek for the whole day and after some rest, back to your accommodation unit by the evening. It takes 3 – 6 hours to reach the height and 2 – 4 hours to be back to the town. You may hire pony, palanquin, etc directly by negotiating the rates locally as it is beyond our control. Helicopter tickets are also available from Katra – Sanjichat – Katra and that needs to be booked by the pilgrim itself at-least 60 days advance.
