Kankai Mata Temple

Dedicated to Kankani Mata, this famous temple is where you can cherish a pristine getaway. Accessible after taking permission from the forest department, this temple is located at a distance of 25 km from Sasan Gir.

This place is tucked away in the wilderness and you can easily listen to the cry of lions during the night who assemble near the lake here. At one time, only 50 devotees are allowed to enter the temple and no one can stay overnight in this restricted area.

The old temple is revered among the Gujarati families and a lovely getaway for nature lovers. It is advisable to pay a visit to this serene temple in the early hours of morning to have the best experience with your loved ones. The temple is one of the most adorable places to visit in Gir for religious travellers and soul-seekers.
