- iNomadIndia103 contributionsJai Mata DiQueues could be long, especially during festival seasons so ensure you have sufficient time. We had to wait for almost 1.5 hours for cable car / gondola service. There was a long queue for the darshan, and it could get super crowded so take care of small kids and your belongings. Return via cable car / gondola could also be a long wait so you can walk down.Visited March 2023Written 7 April 2023
- SridharEden Prairie, Minnesota376 contributionsSuper crowded when we visited the temple..Well, the temple was very crowded! But we were able to use the premium tickets from the Chandi Devi temple to get into the cable car without any wait. This was a real time saver. Once we went up, there were very long lines for the darshan(atleast1.5hours wait we were told). Therefore, we bought a special darshan ticket that took us hardly 5mnts, or so. What I'm trying to say here is that there are options if you are pressed for time or have elderly people visiting the temple. The cable car services are usually preferred by a majority of people visiting the temple. It carries the pilgrims directly from the lower station to the temple. It is convenient and you get great views of the city, river and the surrounding areas.Visited June 2023Travelled with familyWritten 18 July 2023

Mansa Devi is so overcrowded with pilgrims that I would tell tourists to not bother. When I arrived at the ropeway, there is a signage saying there is a 1-hour waiting time and the number of crowd in the queue seems to confirm it, so I decided to take the 30-40 minute hike up into the temple. The temple itself has limited things to do and some sections have long queues of pilgrims with some trying to annoyingly cut queues all the time, so overall it felt like too much effort needed to get too little experience.

The heart leads the mind, and the soul is satisfied - this place is a religious attraction with good cable car to take us to the temple. The pooja items are available and enough time for darshan and a quick view of this beautifully perched temple.

Mandir is famous, but cleanliness is not up to mark. Basic facility like Toilet & Drinking water is not good.
Cable car is available from 0600 to 1800 hrs, but can get Scooter service till 2100 hrs at Rs 150 (Cantact Niraj- 8218631373) and Ali Auto Driver for round trip(9286528970). Use best of Negotiation Skill.
If Want to Visit both Mansa & Chandi Devi, start at Morning and Take combine Ticket ( Rs 365 per Person, Children below 110 cm). Ticket for Chandi devi is rs 220 per person and for Mansa Devi its Rs 150 per Person. You can pay rs 80 for travelling from Mansa Devi to Chandi devi, but prefer you own arrangement.
You can get looted by Auto Drivers for prebook facility. get auto at location only, you can same money.

Another Excellent temple to go in haridwar... ropeway takes you to the top. Try to take combined ticket for mansa devi and chandi devi temple so u get some preference at ropeway.
Inside the temple its bit clumpsy. not much organised. half way thru the darshan, u will find on ur left where you can go for a smoother darshan as it has barricades.

Mansa Devi temple is one of the 51 Shaktipeeths and a very holy place to visit. There is a cable car to take you to the hilltop. A general ticket of the cable car is Rs 50, while Special One is Rs 800. Most temples are very crowded, so with the special ticket one gets first preference on the next available cable car and there is no waiting.
The feeling at the Mandir is very heavenly and something one would remember for long. For those inclined to visit temples, this place is an absolute must.

We used the Udan Khatola (Cable ride) to reach this place, offered puja and came back. Bought a Rudraksha garland and a ring made from horse foot of a black horse.

Excellent temple complex with many deities and Mansa devi is the main one. The cable car operators tried to force us to buy round tickets to both hill shrines
Mansa & Chandi or else for only Mansa we have to wait long time. We didn't fall for it and finished darshan in normal time.

Is there any facility to book online in advance rope way ticket😊?

No there is not facility to pre-book tickets. Usually tickets are not that much problem, Issue is with getting the rope way. In one Cart only 6 members can be accommodated. So there is long wait after you get tickets. My suggestion would be to walk uphill. Its not that steep, only initial stairs are steep if you come from Kotwali. If you come from Har ki pauri, you will need to take stairs all the way up and is steep. So start your journey from Kotwali road.

From Har-ki-Paudi, Mansa Devi Temple is a walking distance through Upper Road... its fun also walking through shops and restaurants, halwai's on this road.
If you wish to eat, you can stop at Hoshiyarpuri Restaurant on Upper Road for GOOD MEAL.

We went there in the evening around 5.30 and the wait for the ticket was short. The cable car ride is just a few minutes
you can also opt for a VIP ticket which has a priority queue to get in and out of the cable car

Hi- I am planning to visit Mansa and Chandi Devi Temple. I came to know that combined tickets are available for the ropeway. Can you let me know how long will it take to visit both the temples and if I take combined tickets, is there any common place from where I need to take cable car for visiting both these temples.

Yes you can save combined tickets to save money and to save time for a second queue. The temples are at two different places some 45 minutes apart. what you are going to save is time in the queue at the second place; so certainly worth it.

Can't book online tickets for the ropeway. you will easily get the same at the temple. it will be an off season during Feb and so needn't worry about the lines.

how to reach mansa devi temple from har ki pauri

gurgaon334 contributions
you can go by road, but it climbing on hill and long way. if you like adventure and have much time then can go by road. other better way is rope way. take ticket and go by rope way, the office of rope way is very near to Har Ki Pori, just 5-7 minute . Very good palace to go. you must go and visit there.
