Geography & terrain

Trimbakeshwar lies in the Nashik district of Maharashtra, 30 km from Nashik and 190 km from Mumbai — the jyotirlinga town of the region, its 18th-century temple, the Godavari source and the hills set on the Brahmagiri range.

History & culture

The town's story runs with the 18th-century temple era — the jyotirlinga town of the 18th-century temple and the mythic-era origins of the Shiva life, with the town's modern role as the pilgrimage of the Nashik circuit and the home of the 18th-century-era temple and the Godavari source and the 2000s-era ghats; the town's history of the 19th-century-era fairs and the hill walks, gives Trimbakeshwar its jyotirlinga character.
