Anjangiri Jain Tirth Trimbakeshwar Nashik

Anjangiri Jain Tirth is one of the most sacred and ancient Jain pilgrimage destinations in Maharashtra, located near Trimbakeshwar, about 28 km from Nashik city. Nestled in the serene Sahyadri mountain range, this holy hill is deeply associated with Bhagwan Rishabhdev (Adinath), the first Tirthankara of Jainism.

According to Jain scriptures and beliefs, Bhagwan Rishabhdev attained Nirvana at Anjangiri, making this site spiritually equivalent to other major Jain moksha sthals. The peaceful surroundings, cool mountain breeze, and natural beauty create an ideal environment for tapasya, dhyan, and spiritual contemplation.

The main Jain temple is situated atop the hill and is accessible via a well-maintained staircase. The climb itself is considered a sacred act of devotion. Along the way, pilgrims experience calmness and positivity, enhanced by panoramic views of forests and valleys. The temple complex is clean, well-organized, and suitable for both elderly devotees and families with proper rest points.

Due to its close proximity to Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga, Anjangiri Jain Tirth is often included in combined spiritual tours of Nashik. The region remains pleasant throughout most of the year, with October to March being the best time for a Jain yatra.
