How to Get There

Govardhan Ashram is about 100 km from Mumbai. Visitors need to travel north along the western express highway. Traveling further along the Mumbai-Surat national highway(NH8) cross the toll gate at Virar and keep heading north. After traveling 28 km due north take a right turn at “Ten Naka”. You will see some land marks like Hotel Decent and Hotel Vegas just before reaching Ten Naka. After turning right at Ten Naka, travel another 3 km and be on a look out for a narrow turn right at “Hamrapur Phata”. Take the right turn along this narrow lane and follow the long winding road for another 7 km to reach “Galtare”, where Govardhan Ashram is located.
