How To Reach Ganesh Ghat Temple

Another major airport is Guwahati's Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (GAU), which is about 180 KMS away. From Tezpur Airport, you can hire a prepaid taxi or a local auto-rickshaw to reach Ganesh Ghat Temple directly. The journey takes about 30 minutes. From Guwahati Airport, one would typically take a taxi or bus to Tezpur and then local transport.

By Train: The nearest railway station is Tezpur (TZTB) or, more practically, the major junction at Rangapara North (RPN), which is about 35 KMS away and better connected with other parts of India. Another significant station is Dekargaon (DKGN), a few kilometers away. From any of these stations, one can easily hire a shared auto-rickshaw or a private taxi/cab to reach the Ganesh Ghat Temple in the main Tezpur town.

By Road: Tezpur is very well-connected by road via National Highway 15 (NH-15) and others. Regular, affordable bus services (both government and private) ply from major cities like Guwahati, Jorhat, and Tinsukia. The bus stand is centrally located in Tezpur. From the bus stand, the temple is only a short, 5 to 10 minute ride away. If driving, the temple is easy to locate in the Mahabhairab area, near the District Commissioner's Office.
