Maihar Sharda Devi Temple: Darshan Timings & How to Reach

The Sharda Devi Temple in Maihar is one of the most important Shakti Peethas in India, perched atop the Trikuta Hill. Thousands of devotees visit every year for the blessings of Maa Sharda.

How to Reach Maihar

Maihar is just 45 km from Satna and takes about 1 hour by taxi. The temple is well connected by road and rail.

Reaching the Shrine

To reach the hilltop temple you can either climb the 1,063 steps or take the convenient ropeway, which offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape.

Darshan Timings

The temple generally opens early in the morning and closes at night, with a break in the afternoon. Timings may vary during festivals like Navratri, when the crowd is heaviest.

Best Time to Visit

The winter months (October to March) are ideal. Navratri is spiritually vibrant but extremely crowded, so plan accordingly.
