Maha Shivratri at Trimbakeshwar

Night-long worship and abhishek at the Jyotirlinga, one of the busiest days in the temple's year.

On Maha Shivratri, Trimbakeshwar sees night-long prayers, special abhishek and long queues. If you plan to attend, arrive very early, wear simple clothing and follow all temple and police instructions. Mid-week visits outside festivals are far easier.
