Adventure Forever invites you to the thrilling monsoon trek to Bhimashankar via Ganesh ghat. This is most scenic route and one can see amazing waterfalls oozing out of the mountain walls. The beautiful trail passes through dense jungle and you can enjoy water streams over the rocky plateau along the way.
About
The Bhimashankara temple (one of 12 Jyotirlings) is a composite of old and the new structures and is built in the Nagara style of architecture. It is a modest yet graceful temple and it dates back to mid 18th century. The Shikhar of the temple was built by Nana Phadnavis. The great Maratha ruler Shivaji is also said to have made endowments to this temple to facilitate the carrying out, of worship services. As with other Shiva temples in this area, the sanctum is at a lower level.
