They have a rope way ( cable cars) if you don't want to climb some 5000+steps , although, even with rope way, there are still some 200 steps to climb so not suitable for people with walking difficulties. Rope way is situated near the top car park. Return rope way ticket costs 116 rupees ( as at Nov 2019 per person), but buy special 210 rupee ticket to skip some of the queues. this is not advertised widely ! We found this a real bonus as we went on Sunday and had to wait 2 hours in the queue but the special 210 rupee ticket allowed us to jump part of the queue ! If using rope way ,make your way straight to the queue at the top car park and you can buy ticket window just before you enter the last section where you embark the rope way - no need to buy tickets from booths available in the top car park. You can elect to leave your car at bottom and take a shared jeep to the top car park ( around 40 rupees per person return, approx 3KM journey which takes 15 mins) or take your car and drive up the steep hill and park at the top. Parking at the top can be difficult on busy days , how ever even on Sundays after some searching , we were able to find free car parking at the top. Roads are very good and have central dividers so should not be too much of a problem for competent drivers ( you must be good at doing hill starts) - make sure your car is not over loaded and your car is in good condition as the drive is very steep and you may have to stop /start several times in heavy traffic! If you are not good at driving or hill starts DO NOT TAKE your car to the top - pay for a shared jeep that takes you to the top car park. Phone signal is good up to the top car park but you don't get a signal near the temple at the top! You will get nice places to eat along the way but if you would like a sit down meal then wait until you disembark from the rope way on the return journey as this will lead you to a very reasonably priced sit down restaurant- fixed veg tali around 160 rupees , plus various snack options like vara pau; pau bhaji etc all made in clean and nice surroundings - ( nice clean toilets /washrooms there as well ) I think this is a new addition and is not advertised too widely . You will only have a couple of seconds in front of the main deity but well worth visiting as it is one of the most important ma Kali shrines near Vadodara ( approx 60kms away)

After paying the entrance fee and seeing the first Masjid we ventured off the beaten track and came across the Nagina Masjid .........not a soul to enjoy it apart from the security guard .........and so much the better for it. I recommend that you follow the signs and don’t give up when the path gets narrower. You’ll be glad you persevered.

It is an ancient temple of Lord Hanuman in which the statue of the lord is carved from the mountain stone. It is located in the village Jhand. It is believed that all the wishes of the devotees are fulfilled by Lord Hanuman whose offerings are pure hearted.
