Distances to Omkareshwar from 12 Indian cities

The number on each city page is a straight-line distance, the "as the crow flies" figure between the two points on a globe. It is useful for judging whether a trip is a day out or a multi-day haul, and it is honest about what it is. It is not a driving distance and not a train distance: real roads bend around hills, rivers and forests, so the tarmac always runs longer than the straight line.

The route also changes with the season. Hill roads close in winter snow and heavy monsoon rain, and coastal roads can flood. The temple itself may close for winter, in which case the route to plan is the one to the valley or the town below rather than the gate.Data check pending
