Recently in during diwali 2021 we had visited Brahmagiri hill near Trimbakeswar and the trip was excellent. Though people say that those hill areas are good during or after the monsoon due to their greenish views but visiting this time in winter will give you another side of the image. The hills will look quite dry but you will be able to notice the wall like rocks along the Brahmagiri or Sahayadri ranges. We went to this place from Trimbakeswar. If you have your own car and if it is small hatchback and of you are quite confident in driving along the narrow ghat roads then you can go of your own. But I suggest you take the rental autos from Trimbakeswar who will charge you between 400-600 for to and fro trips as that you give you some relaxation due to not driving but viewing the beauty of the nature. Once you reach Brahmagiri (some 10-12 kms which will take 45 mins) you will be de-boarded from your vehicle at the entrance of the ghat. Then you have to take a rough muddy road for about 1 kms and then the stairs start. There are lots of Palki (palanquin) services available for aged and/or physically challenged people (and also for kids to have fun) - they take some 800-1000 for taking you in those palkis. A single adult or 2-3 kids can sit on one Palki. There are around 180-200 steps to reach Ganda Dwar or Ganga Mandir which is the origin of river Godavari (The river Godavari is called Dakshin Ganga or the Ganges of the Southern India and hence the names Ganga Dwar or Ganga Mandir. There is another route to reach Brahmagiri or Ganga Dwar which is from Trimbakeswar State highway and in that case you have to climb around 750 steps. Suggestable is this route where you can go through vehicle and then climb for 150-200 steps. Once you reach Ganga Dwar then you can view the Kund (well) to witness the origin of river Godavari. The same hill hosts many other tourist places like 108 Shiva lingam caves (bit narrow and you have to be very careful while walking along the route) and other caves like Rishi Goutam and Rishi Gorakh. But once you reach and visit there then you will be able to witness a different feeling by realizing how those sages did their tapasyas in those caves thousands of years ago. Atop the hill there are many other caves and Shiva lingams but to reach there you have to cross some 1500 steps from the down State highway. But visiting Ganga Dwar or Ganga Mandir and other nearby caves in of great worth considering the rough routes and those 200-300 steps climbing. Also you will find water bottles, sugarcane juice and some biting food stalls. You can hire bamboo sticks as well (hardly 10-15 Rs per stick) if you need a support while climbing up. Overall it's quite a good place to visit with family and kids (ensuring the parents take care of their kids safety). Considering travel time of nearly 2 hours to and fro Trimbakeswar it is worth staying there for another 2-3 hours.

To reach the brahmgiri, if you have 2 wheel Vehicle then no problem thenu can take your own vehicle to it's base by going through the main gate of trimabakeshwar,but if you have 4 wheeler vehicle then you have to go from outside. To reach foothills you can take the vehicle to the brahmagiri starting point where learning is available. But please DON'T LITTER ON THE GROUND AND STAIRS, IT'S A SANCTUM PLACE AND HOLY PLACE . Keep the garbage in your bags. Take water bottles as well as some food to eat at top because as you climb u will fatigue and will become thirsty so take the bottles in your backpack because there are monkeys which can and surely cleverly will snatch your food packets, bottles of water as well as purses of the women so be aware, and the cost of bottle at top is high as 40 rupees so take a note of it, it's a complete thrilling and mesmerizing sort of trek of 2(for youngsters) to 5(above 40 age) hrs. When u start climb, in the starting a roof covered room with a window will be there in which Maharashtra forest guard will ask for rupees 30 for each person so u should not listen to them and start your climbing because it's completely free, as you will climb seriously the gradient will increase and one time will come when first will get over and whole panoramic view of Trimbak will be visible . So from there the middle bars will start because from there the steep climbing will start(don't be panic it will be relatively simple as compared to other trekking hills ) but will increase as you go ahead, in between there will be bunch of monkeys eagerly waiting for you snatch(joking) but if you have something for them give them from a distance and be aware of your belongings and take care of it,BUT they will not harm you if u are calm and dont do mischief with them, otherwise they will get trigger and might also you😂 and beaware that during monsoon it's to sticky, wetty, and damp place so take hold of middle bars while climbing and when stairs get disappear there is gentle hill which you have to climb without stairs on the red sand ground but it's not much difficult, after reaching the top you will be surely exhausted but will feel as if you have came on the top of Himalayan mountain(extrapolating) and high speed and will be there to resist you to move so take care of the light weight essentials, but your ears might pain because you are about 1 km above the ground and due to pressure difference, now below there is the group of temples on your left and it's on lower altitude.. the origin of Godavari.!! 👍🏻👍🏻 Enjoy your day!! 😊 Om Namah shivay!!

At a distance of 3 km from Trimbakeshwar Bus Station and 31 km from Nashik, Brahmagiri is a mountain adjacent to Trimbakeshwar in the Western Ghats of Maharashtra. Situated at an altitude of 1,298 m, Brahmagiri is the source of the sacred River Godavari. Brahmagiri literally means the hill of Lord Brahma. According to the mythology, sage Gautama and his wife Ahalya resided on this hill. A cow was unintentionally killed by Saint Gautama while trying to ward it off. To wash his sins, he worshipped Lord Shiva to bring river Ganga on earth from the heaven. Pleased with Sage Gautama's devotion, Lord Shiva requested Ganga river to flow down in the form of Godavari to make Sage Gautama pure. Hence, the river is also known as River Gautami. Earlier, Brahmagiri hill is considered as a huge form of Lord Shiva and hence the mountain climbing was considered as a sin. In the year 1908, Seth Lalchand of Karachi and Seth Ganeshdas built 500 stone steps at a cost of Rs. 40,000. This has facilitated easy access to Brahmagiri. One can see the water flows in three directions on the mountain. The one flowing towards east becomes Godavari River, one flowing towards the south is Vaitarna River and the one flowing towards the west is called the west-flowing Ganga and meets Godavari near Chakra Tirth. River Ahalya meets Godavari in front of the Trimbakeshwar temple. Sadyo-Jata, Vamdev, Tat-Purusha, Aghora and Ishana are the five peaks of Brahmagiri hills, which are considered as five mouths of the Lord Shiva. A 10 minutes' walk from Trimbakeshwar towards Brahmagiri brings visitors to a signboard that indicates the presence of wild animals and warning regarding the same. Then, the gradual ascent of 2 km brings you to the top of Brahmagiri Hill. It takes around 2 hours to reach the top of the Brahmagiri from Trimbakeshwar. One can see the temples of Lord Shiva and goddess Godavari at the top of Brahmagiri Hill. Godavari Temple is believed to be the origin of Godavari River. The river appears here as coming out from the mouth of Nandi. From here, the river flows till Gangadwar and then towards Kushavart teerth in Trimbakeshwar village. Kolambika Devi temple and a group of 108 shivlings are located nearby. The Brahmagiri hills with its rugged terrain are not only attractive to pilgrims but also nature and adventure lovers. There are many trekking trails nestled among the woody trees. The ranges are rich with natural attractions and scenic spots. The Brahmagiri hills are replete with natural beauty. The panorama of Brahmagiri hill is an eye treat.

First thing first in google map its shown there is a direct road from trambak town to ganga dwar temple which is completly wrong, by road you have to choose another way go to jawhar road and ask locals for ganga dwar temple at bramhagiri, its not only mountain but also twin forts trambak fort and durgbhandar fort, you can reach durgbhandar fort from the small path by shiv jata temple at bramhagiri fort, rock cut stairs are iconic and magnificent craftsmen ship of that time, it is constructed by yadav kings then transferred to moguls later maratha captured it and at last british got its control. extream tourism has made this place a garbage house huge pile of grabage is everywhere scattered on the mountain, i request not to throw garbage keep our cultural and historical places clean. there are lot of monkeys and are very aggressive keep stick with you which is really effective during climbing, support local villagers by purchasing some food items avoid lime water as water may not suit you, best season is after monsoon and during winter, keep plenty of water and food with you, there are several small streams of water coming out of the mountain which are said to be actual origin of godavari river, in summer it almost become dry. the main two temples are sitchuated behind the mountain, if you are novice climber and afraid of heights i suggest you have to avoid durgbhandar fort. once again during visit just live your footprints not garbage behind you, respect the place thanks.

Brahmagiri (1298 meters)is to the west of trambakeshwar and this fort offers a commanding view of the Jawhar Mokhada region of Thane district. Trimbakeshwar itself is a place of worship because it is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva. From Trimbakeshwar, through regular steps, Ganga dwar is reached and the Gorakshanath cave which is end of Trimbakeshwar. Now again while climbing down, there is a road going towards Brahmagiri towards right. Following this route one reaches the carved steps in the rocks. The steps are very good even in the recent times. They were blown off by Britishers in 1818 but later on, they were rebuilt somewhere before India gained independence. From the base village, Brahmagiri is around 450 to 500 meters elevated From base village, it takes 45 minutes to see Ganga dwar, the Gorakshanath caves and 108 Swayambhu Mahadev caves and in the halfway while descending, the road towards Brahmagiri takes you till the top in around 45 minutes and almost 2 hours to see the fort completely. There are 2 temples on this fort the place which is believed to be the origin point of Godavari river. From here, the river flows till Ganga dwar and then towards Kushavart teerth in Trimbakeshwar village. One can reach this place by an ascent of about 750 steps made on concrete. There is a shrine dedicated to Goddess Ganga. The river appears here as coming out from the mouth of Nandi. Kolambika Devi temple and a group of 108 shivalings are seen nearby.

Anjaneri fort trek is one of the famous treks in Nasik-Triambakeshwar mountain range of Maharashtra. It is an attraction of Nashik city and Triambakeshwar region. Located 20 km away from Nasik and 6 km from Triambakeshwar. It is situated at an altitude of 4263 feet from the sea level. The locals believe that the fort is the birthplace of Lord Hanuman. Therefore, it is considered as one of the religious places among Hindu devotees. There are many small Jain temples, caves and a foot-shaped lake on the way to the main Hanuman temple. There is also a temple built for Anjani Maata who gave birth to Hanuman. It is unique as there is no other temple built for Anjani Maata. The Anjaneri Fort trek starts from the forest department of Anjaneri Village. Take permission before starting the trek. The trail from the parking area is a long rock step walk followed by a huge boulder section. There is a single route and a lot of signboards, which reduces the chance of getting lost. After 15 minutes of a gradual climb, you reach a boulder section. You need to cross this section very carefully. Make sure you wear proper trekking shoes if you are trekking in the monsoon. Note: You see a lot of Monkeys on the trail. Make sure you cover the food items if you have any. There is a Jain cave on your left side. Explore the cave for 10 minutes and proceed. From there another 15 minutes ascend would lead us to the meadow section. The meadow in front of you is vast. After 10 minutes of a trek on the meadow, the trail next leads you to the Anjani Maata Temple. Visit the temple and click some pictures. This is the only temple built for Anjani Maata. Once you start the trek from the temple, there is a huge lake. It is believed that this lake is formed due to Lord Hanuman’s left footprint. Locals use it as a water resource. The entire forest section is filled with dark tall trees and lush green shrubs. You can hear the rustling sound of leaves in the bushes. This section becomes very slippery during the monsoon season because of the moss covering on the rocks. After 20 minutes of steep ascend in the forest, you come across a boulder. Take a small sip of water and hydrate yourself. It will take another 10 minutes to cross and reach the highest point. It is a plateau region. Watch out for the trail you have climbed up from an aerial view. Observe the foot-shaped lake. Spot another lake behind the foot-shaped lake, that is the Anjaneri Lake. There is a temple built by locals a few minutes away from here. It is worth your visit. The Lord Hanuman you see inside the temple is different from others as it represents the Hanuman as a child. Anjaneri fort trek can be done throughout the year. Each season you get to see the western ghat mountains in different shades. 108 Jain caves are found here belonging to the 11th-12th century. This place was used by Raghunathrao Peshwa as summer retreat when he as in exile. During British Raj, the Christian missionaries of Saharanpur and Malegaon regularly visited Anjaneri during summer and held the service of the Church of England. Anjaneri is declared as Conservation Reserve in 2017 under the section 36A of WildLife protection Act, 1972, The area of conservation reserve is 5.69Sq.km.

If you're a fan of trekking and looking for a new adventure, Anjaneri is definitely a place you'll want to add to your list. Located in the beautiful mountain ranges of Maharashtra, this trekking destination is not far from Nashik City. You can commute to this place in city bus. This place offers stunning views, a serene lake on top of the mountain, and plenty of small shops to grab a quick bite and drink before continuing your journey. One of the highlights of Anjaneri is the lake that sits atop the mountain, offering a peaceful respite from the sometimes-challenging trek. The views from the lake are breath-taking, and the tranquil surroundings make it a great spot to stop and catch your breath before continuing on. Speaking of views, the hilltop vistas throughout the trek are equally stunning. From rocky outcroppings to sweeping valleys, there is no shortage of beautiful scenery to take in along the way. The small shops that dot the trekking trail offer a welcome break from the sometimes-rigorous trek. Whether you are in the mood for some hot noodles or a refreshing glass of lemon water, you can find what you need to fuel up for the next leg of your journey. It's worth noting that Anjaneri can get quite windy, so be sure to come prepared with appropriate clothing and gear. And while the trek is certainly doable solo, we recommend going in a group for safety reasons. Overall, Anjaneri is a trekking destination that is not to be missed. Be sure to come prepared, and consider visiting during the monsoon or winter season for the best experience.

Great place for nature lovers friends....its a good place if u love adventures ....here u can do trekking.... Actually this place is meant for the birthplace of God Hanuman..... This is located between the Nasik City and Trimbakeshwar..... You can visit this place in the winter season....that would be the best....because in rainy season its quiet risky because the surrounding area is not well developed.... In summer season ....you will keep fighting with the harsh sunrays.... So its better u visit in winter season ...... Probably the best trek I have had in sahyadri range. It's a relatively simple (mainly due to pilgrimage site) but at the same time really scenic trek (esp in monsoon time when I had been there). There are steps carved in some parts to make the path easier to travel. At times there is a stream along the stairs making it a very nice experience. Near the mountain top there is a plateau with a nice lake. Atop the fort, there is a Hanuman Temple , with excellent view. If you are lucky enough you can witness the "Reverse Waterfall" (due to the high winds the water from the fall is splashed upwards). A place worth visit!!

My heart beat was on the apex, my body was almost shaking, my leg were giving up, I felt like, I can't do it but when I turn back and the thing which my eyes catch was the spectacular view of the mountains. It was like that I didn't flick my eyes even once. I stood up there nearly 40 mins and I barely closed my eyelids. It was like that I just want to keep seeing it. I was just questioning myself that how can be it so so beautiful. It was amazing to watch when clear, shiny water of lake touching the feet of the mountain. That view was the only thing which giving my body the strength, the cold winds up there was pushing me to go to the top of the hill. I was unable to control myself. I felt like sitting there and just watch and watch and do not close your eyes. It was that beautiful. When I reached at the top I sat and watch the beauty. Where ever I looked it become more and more interesting. That's the beauty of the nature. You can't ignore it. Anjaneri Hill is the place where the beauty of nature and religion meet. The way to get there is risky but believe me that's worth it.

Anjaneri Hill is a profound place that lies amongst Nasik and Trimbakeshwar.
