Ghat · Nashik–Trimbakeshwar
Ramkund, Panchavati
The sacred tank on the Godavari where Lord Rama is believed to have bathed—the main Simhastha bathing site in Nashik.
Ramkund is a stone-lined tank on the Godavari in Panchavati, the heart of old Nashik. The Vaishnav akharas take their Amrit Snan here, and the Simhastha opens with flag hoisting at Ramkund.
Throughout the year families come here for asthi visarjan and rituals for ancestors, and the evening Godavari aarti draws large crowds.
Visiting tips
- Water levels rise sharply in heavy monsoon rain—follow police instructions.
- Panchavati’s main temples are a short walk away.
