Ahmedabad to Ambaji distance and route
The drive takes about 3.5 hours in normal traffic, mostly along SH 41 via Mehsana and Palanpur, then the Ambaji road.
- Mehsana and Palanpur are the two main towns on this route.
- Ambaji temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas, dedicated to the goddess Amba.
- The temple has no idol; worship centres on a yantra, similar in style to the Bahuchar Mata temple in Mehsana district.
- Bhadarvi Poonam, around September, is the busiest pilgrimage date, with heavy foot and vehicle traffic.
- Gabbar hill, a short drive above the temple, is a common add-on stop with a ropeway.

Who books an Ahmedabad to Ambaji cab
Shakti Peetha pilgrims
Ambaji is one of Gujarat’s most visited pilgrimage sites, and darshan is the main reason for this trip for most travellers.
Temple-circuit families
Many families combine Ambaji with other nearby temples on a single pilgrimage-focused trip.
Bhadarvi Poonam crowds
The Bhadarvi Poonam festival period brings the year’s heaviest bookings; call a few days ahead to lock in your car for those dates.
Planning a trip to Ambaji
Ambaji works as a same-day trip: leave Ahmedabad around 6 AM, reach for morning darshan and be home by evening. Poonam days are busy, and during the Bhadarvi Poonam fair traffic is diverted and the last stretch into town can take far longer, so start earlier on those dates. Add an hour or two if you want the ropeway up Gabbar hill.
