Kankai Mata Temple

Kankai Mata Temple is an ancient hilltop shrine inside the Gir forest, dedicated to Goddess Kankai — a locally revered form of Amba Mata. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of the jungle, the temple is accessible via a scenic forest route inside the Gir sanctuary and adds a spiritual dimension to the Sasan Gir wildlife experience. A revered pilgrimage site for local Gir tribal communities and an offbeat Gir tourist attraction for heritage travellers in Gujarat.
