How To Reach Sati Anusuya Ashram

By Air: The Nearest Airport is Prayagraj Airport (IXD), located approximately 130-140 KMS away. From the airport, one can hire a pre-booked taxi or use a cab service to reach Chitrakoot, which takes about 3. 5 to 4 hours. Alternatively, the Khajuraho Airport (HJR) is about 175 KMS away and also serves as a feasible, albeit longer, travel option, often preferred by international tourists.

By Train: The Nearest Major Railway Station is Chitrakut Dham Karwi (CKTD), located around 18-20 KMS from the ashram. CKTD is well-connected to major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Prayagraj. From the railway station, local transport options such as auto-rickshaws, shared jeeps, and private taxis are readily available to take you directly to Sati Anusuya Ashram. The journey takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Satna Railway Station (STA), about 75 KMS away, is a major junction on the Mumbai-Howrah route and is another common access point, requiring a 2-hour taxi ride.

By Road: Chitrakoot is well-connected by State and National Highways. The ashram is easily accessible via the main Chitrakoot-Karwi road, but a short detour is required on a slightly rougher forest road to reach the final destination. Government-run buses (UPSRTC and MP state buses) connect Chitrakoot Dham Karwi and Satna to nearby cities like Prayagraj, Kanpur, and Jabalpur. Private taxis and rental cars are the most comfortable option for the 16-17 KMS journey from the main town center.

By Local Transport: From the main Ram Ghat or Karwi town center, local transport is the only option for the final leg. Shared taxis (often Tata Sumos or similar vehicles) or larger auto-rickshaws (Vikram) frequently ply the route to the ashram and are the most cost-effective way to reach. You must be prepared to negotiate the fare, especially for a dedicated, non-shared auto-rickshaw.
