A compact circuit, big on significance.
Trimbakeshwar's Jyotirlinga, then the climb (or ropeway) to Saptashrungi Devi at Vani, and back to Nashik.
Nashik
Morning pickup from your hotel or the station.
Trimbakeshwar
~30 km · Jyotirlinga darshan.
Vani (Saptashrungi)
~55 km from Trimbakeshwar · Saptashrungi Devi temple, reachable by steps or ropeway.
Back to Nashik
Return drive, evening arrival.
Approx. one-way distance across the loop: around 85 km outbound via Trimbakeshwar to Vani, roughly 65 km back to Nashik directly — call it 150 km total, billed on actual km or the 300 km/day minimum, whichever is higher.
Two very different kinds of sacred site.

A Jyotirlinga and a Shakti Peeth, one trip
Few day trips let you cover both a Jyotirlinga and one of Maharashtra's Shakti Peeths — this is one of them.

Ropeway option at Vani
The 502-step climb to Saptashrungi Devi can be skipped via ropeway if you'd rather save your energy for darshan.

Scenic hill roads
The drive from Trimbakeshwar to Vani winds through the Sahyadri hills — worth the trip on its own.
A vehicle that handles hill roads comfortably.
An SUV is a strong pick for this route given the hill sections between Trimbakeshwar and Vani.
Common questions about this tour.
Is there a ropeway at Saptashrungi Devi temple?
Yes, a ropeway is available for those who'd prefer not to climb the roughly 502 steps to the temple.
How long is the drive between Trimbakeshwar and Vani?
Around 55 km through hill roads, typically 1.5–2 hours depending on conditions.
Can this be combined with Nashik Darshan in the same day?
It's possible with an early start, though we usually recommend keeping Nashik Darshan as a separate day for a relaxed pace.
Is this route suitable for senior citizens?
Yes — with the ropeway option at Vani, the trip is manageable without the temple steps.
Other Nashik-area routes worth planning.
