Why go to Trimbakeshwar
Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga, Kushavarta kund and the source of the Godavari. One of the twelve Jyotirlingas, set below the Brahmagiri hill where the Godavari rises — a quiet, devotional half-day.
Is it worth it?
If you have three days in Nashik, Trimbakeshwar fits in as a relaxed day trip without cutting into the city. With two days, we'd keep to Nashik itself.
