Umiya Mata Temple, Unjha: How to Reach

Umiya Mata: How to ReachUnjha sits on the main Ahmedabad to Palanpur railway corridor in North Gujarat, so the town is easy to reach by train or road; the temple is a short auto ride from both the station and the bus stand. The nearest railway station is Unjha Railway Station (Approx 2 to 3 km).
Reaching by rail, road and air
ModePointDistanceNotes
TrainUnjha Railway StationApprox 2 to 3 kmUnjha is a stop on the Ahmedabad to Palanpur/Abu Road line; many passenger and express trains halt here. Autos and shared rickshaws run to the temple.
Train (major junction)Mehsana JunctionApprox 20 to 25 kmLarger junction with wider connectivity if a train does not stop at Unjha; continue by bus or taxi.
AirSardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport, AhmedabadApprox 100 kmNearest airport; hire a cab or take a train/bus onward to Unjha, roughly 2.5 to 3 hours by road.
RoadFrom AhmedabadApprox 100 kmDrive north via Mehsana on NH 68 / State Highway; frequent GSRTC and private buses serve Unjha from Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Surat, Jaipur and Ajmer. Bus stand is roughly 3 km from the temple.

Unjha's advantage is that it sits directly on a busy North Gujarat rail artery. It is not a branch-line halt you have to work to reach; express and passenger services on the Ahmedabad to Palanpur/Abu Road route call at Unjha itself, and the station is only a couple of kilometres from the temple gate, a short auto or shared-rickshaw hop. If a particular long-distance train skips Unjha, Mehsana Junction 20 to 25 km south is the fallback with broader connectivity.

By road the town is well wired into the state bus network. GSRTC and private operators run frequent buses from Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Surat and even interstate towns like Jaipur and Ajmer, reflecting how far the Patidar diaspora spreads. Drivers from Ahmedabad head north through Mehsana on the national highway, roughly a two-and-a-half to three-hour drive over about 100 km. Fliers land at Ahmedabad airport and continue by cab or train; there is no commercial airport closer than Ahmedabad.
