This temple is located about 12 km away from Katra. To
visit this temple one has to hire a pony or travel by
foot from Katra. Popular belief holds that anybody who
walks the Himalayan trail to her abode to ask for a boon
rarely goes back disappointed. We will visit this temple
either by travelling on foot or hire a pony from Katra.
The Vaishno Devi shrine is located in a cave towards the
top of the Trikuta Mountains in Jammu-Kashmir. There are
three pindies of Mahakali, Mahalakshmi and Mahasaraswati.
This is believed to be the only place where these three
Devi's are found in one temple as natural pindies. The
yatra follows the path Vaishno Devi took when fleeing
