Chauragarh

  • Chauragarh Temple is situated on top of a hill situated at an altitude of 1330 m.
  • This popular shrine in Pachmarhi is only accessible by trekking 3.6 km up the hill. The last 1 kilometer can be a difficult hike if you are not much into climbing as there are 1000+ steps that will lead you to the main temple.
  • Devotees of Shiva are usually seen trekking with Trishul (Trident, a symbol of Lord Shiva) in their hands during Mahashivratri.
  • On top of the peak are a temple and an area that has an area where numerous Trishuls are erected and it looks magnificent. The view from the temple of the Satpura forest is obviously quite stunning.
