The most convenient way of traveling to this ancient Gujarat city is to reach Junagadh by rail. Junagadh, a city and municipality in Gujarat, has a rail station of its own. Trains connect Junagadh to major cities in Gujarat like Rajkot, Veraval and Ahmedabad. Junagadh is also connected to other states by rail.

The Junagadh Railway Station stands on Rajkot-Junagadh and Ahmedabad-Junagadh line. The 103 kilometer distance between Junagadh and Rajkot is covered in around two and fifteen minutes. The Verabal-Jabalpur Express connects Ahmedabad with Junagadh.
