How To Reach Turturiya Dham - Mata Mandir
Turturiya, Chhattisgarh, India
The Mata Mandir at Turturiya Dham is a separate, revered temple dedicated to the Divine Mother, often associated with Mata Sita or a local Goddess form, located on a nearby hillock. Reaching the temple requires an ascent of approximately 270 straight steps, which is considered an act of devotion and penance. The climb offers visitors an opportunity to pause and absorb the breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Barnawapara Wildlife Sanctuary forests and the entire Turturiya valley below. The physical journey to the top is an integral part of the pilgrimage experience, symbolizing the human journey toward spiritual enlightenment. The temple structure itself is relatively simple but holds deep religious importance for the local communities and visiting pilgrims. The spiritual ambiance at the summit, combined with the cooling breeze and quiet isolation, makes it a perfect place for deep prayer and receiving the Goddess's blessings. The Mata Mandir acts as a guardian shrine for the entire Dham complex, and visitors often consider their visit incomplete without seeking the Mother Goddess's blessings after visiting the Valmiki Ashram and the waterfall. Its location emphasizes the local integration of Goddess worship within the ancient Valmiki Ashram site.

How to Reach

By Air:

The route remains the same: fly to Raipur Airport (RPR, 100 KMS away). From the airport, hire a direct cab to the Turturiya Dham complex, where the Mata Mandir is located within the same compound on a hillock. This involves a 2. 5-3 hour drive.

By Train: Travel to Raipur Junction (R, 100 KMS away). From there, hire a vehicle to take you directly to the base of the hill at Turturiya. The journey will be broken down by road into the main Dham complex.

By Road: Drive or take a bus from Raipur or Bilaspur to Kasdol or Balodabazar, and then hire a local taxi or jeep to the Turturiya Dham entrance. The final few kilometers of the forest road can be challenging for low-ground-clearance vehicles. The Mata Mandir is accessed only by climbing the dedicated set of steps from the main complex. By Local Transport (The Final Climb) Once at the Turturiya Dham parking lot, the only way to reach the Mata Mandir is On Foot by ascending the approximately 270 straight steps. There is no road or local transport option to the hilltop. Ensure you are physically prepared for this demanding but short trek. Carry water and wear comfortable shoes for the climb.
