About the Nashik Kumbh
Simhastha Kumbh on the Godavari
The Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh returns in 2027. The Mela opens with flag hoisting on 31 October 2026 and its three Amrit Snans fall in August and September 2027 at Ramkund and Kushavarta Kund.
The Kumbh Mela is the world’s largest gathering of faith. According to the Samudra Manthan legend, drops of amrit fell at Prayagraj, Haridwar, Nashik and Ujjain, and the Mela rotates between them. Millions bathe in the sacred river on days chosen by the stars, and UNESCO lists it as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

FAQs
Nashik Kumbh Mela – your questions answered
When is the Nashik Kumbh Mela 2027?
The Simhastha Kumbh opens with flag hoisting on 31 October 2026. The Amrit Snans are on 2 August 2027, 31 August 2027, 11 September 2027 at Nashik and 12 September 2027 at Trimbakeshwar. It closes on 24 July 2028.
Where are the bathing ghats in Nashik?
There are two sites. Vaishnav akharas bathe at Ramkund on the Godavari in Panchavati, Nashik. Shaiva akharas bathe at Kushavarta Kund in Trimbakeshwar, about 28 km away.
How do I reach Nashik?
By train to Nashik Road station (about 3–4 hours from Mumbai). By air to Nashik (Ozar) airport, or Mumbai and Pune airports and then by road. Nashik is about 170 km from Mumbai and 210 km from Pune on good highways.
What is the weather like during the Nashik Kumbh?
The Amrit Snans fall in the monsoon (August–September). Expect 22–30°C with rain showers, so carry a rain jacket and quick-dry clothes.
What should I pack for the Kumbh Mela?
Comfortable walking shoes or sandals, a change of clothes and a towel for the snan, a quick-dry bag for wet clothes, warm layers (Prayagraj and Haridwar are cold in winter), a rain jacket for Nashik in the monsoon, a torch, a power bank, basic medicines and a photocopy of your ID. Keep valuables to a minimum.
Is the Kumbh Mela safe for families, women and senior citizens?
Yes. The Mela areas have police, CCTV, lost-and-found centres and medical posts. Staying in an organised camp helps: our guests get a bathing escort, secure accommodation and a 24×7 helpdesk. Avoid the busiest hour of an Amrit Snan with small children or elderly guests; we will suggest a quieter time.
