Excellent place to visit and pray. It’s on a hill top and There are two temples. You have to go by rope way over there, with tickets costing around 180 per person to and fro. The temples over there are Chandi Devi and Anjani Devi. Temples are kept clean and local food stalls are also available. Must visit if you are travelling to Haridwar. You can view Ganga river very clearly from Over the top.
I go on walkway though jungle its very spiritual
Chandi devi temple is on one of the popular destination at Haridwar (The Gateway towards the Gods), entourage The one of the holiest pilgrimage in the life of the peoples belonging to the Hindu community is known as Chhota Chardham Yatra which entirely lies within the Indian state of Uttarakhand. The sequential list of Chhota Chardham is as :(1) Yamunotri ( includes 5-6km trekking),(2) Gangotri ( no trekking, but if one desires to go to Goumukh requires 14-15km very hard trekking),(3) Kedarnath ( includes 17 km trekking)(4) Badrinath ( on a plateau, requires no trekking)It is compulsory that, One must register himself/herself at the Kiosks of Chardham Yatra Counters & get biometrics uploaded for easy recognition of your identity, during Yatra period. This facilitate the Yatra management & State Government to keep control on Yatrees movement, and locate & help them in worst/disastrous conditions.At the Yamunotri & Kedarnath the pony, pitthu, and doli options are available as per the local conditions. The State Government tries to regulate these fees, but one must not directly contact or bargain with these operators or agents. Instead you must get these services from the Government Kiosk mean for hiring these service, where you have to pay the scheduled rates of that particular services. This helped the pilgrims from getting cheated by these operators or their agents.Id posted, as many as possible, photos of the entire Chhota Chardham & its routes from Haridwar to Haridwar, from which one can get a clear idea about the conditions there and the pilgrimage.Wish you a very Happy & Safe Pilgrimage at, on & along Chhota Chardham & the entire Routes.
I have been living in Haridwar since my birth but I had never visited Chandi Devi temple via road. It is beautiful mini trek with lush green mountain view.I left home at 9:30 am and went to the base trek by riding my activa and parked it on Dakshineswar Kali temple.I started my trek at 9:50am and I took almost 25 min to reach on top.(I was clicking pics in between ).There was no rush in the temple premise so it hardly took 30 mins (to both chandi devi temple and Anjana mata temple).And It took only 16 mins to come back to the base.I am sharing some photos which I had clicked.How to reach on hill top: Either by ropeway or by 2 km trek.How to reach ropeway ticket counter : By auto, e-rickshaw, own conveyance.Way to trek starts from the famous and sidhdha Dakshineswar kali mandir .There is a small market on hill top as well where you can shop gifts and buy prasad.Samosas, dhokla, pakode , Maggie, kulcha chole etc are also available.
