Vaishno Devi Helicopter Booking From Ajmer, Rajasthan — Straightforward Guide You Actually Need

I’ve seen so many pilgrims from Rajasthan get confused about routes, timings, and connection points. Honestly, it’s not as complicated as it looks once you break it down. The helicopter ride for Vaishno Devi always starts from Katra Helipad (Searli Helipad, Near Searli Check Post, Katra, Reasi – J&K) and takes you to Sanjichhat.

But first, you need to reach Katra. Let’s walk through every practical way to reach there from Ajmer — using exact airport names, railway station names, and road routes.

  1. Ajmer to Katra via Jaipur Airport (JAIPUR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT – JAI)

This is the route most Ajmer pilgrims use because it’s the most convenient.

Step 1: Reach Jaipur Airport

Ajmer doesn’t have an airport, so you travel to:

You can easily reach Jaipur by bus, taxi, or train.

Step 2: Take a flight from Jaipur to Jammu

You book a flight to:

Direct flights aren’t always available daily, but Jaipur → Jammu via Delhi is common.

Step 3: Jammu Airport to Katra

Once you land at Jammu:

Tell the driver clearly:
“Take me to Searli Helipad, Katra.”

That’s the exact helipad where the Katra → Sanjichhat helicopter ride takes off.

 2. Ajmer to Katra via Train (Direct trains to Jammu Tawi)

People who like budget-friendly travel from Ajmer generally prefer trains.

Step 2: Jammu Tawi Railway Station to Katra

Once you arrive at:

Take a taxi directly to:
Katra Helipad, Searli Check Post

Distance is roughly the same as from the airport.

Ajmer to Katra by train is long (around 18–22 hrs), but pilgrims choose it because it’s reliable and hassle-free.

3. Ajmer to Katra by Road (For those who like long road trips)

Let me be blunt — this is tiring. But some families prefer it.

Major route from Ajmer to Katra:

Ajmer → Kishangarh → Jaipur → Delhi → Panipat → Ambala → Ludhiana → Pathankot → Jammu → Katra

If you’re driving, just don’t try to push all in one go. Rest at Delhi or Ambala, then continue.

When you reach Katra, navigate to:
