Maharashtra Sade Teen Shakti Peeth Circuit

The Maharashtra Sade Teen Shakti Peeth Circuit is an 8-day, 7-night road pilgrimage from Mumbai or Pune to the three and a half Shakti Peeths of Maharashtra. Ambabai Mahalaxmi at Kolhapur, Tulja Bhavani at Tuljapur and Renuka Mata at Mahur are revered as the three full peeths, and Saptashrungi Devi at Vani near Nashik as the half peeth. The package starts at ₹ 34,900 per person, which is the triple-sharing standard rate; double and single rates are higher on the rate card.

The four temples lie in different corners of the state, so the route is spread over eight days instead of a rushed four-day drive. Day 1 covers Panchavati, Kalaram Temple and Ramkund in Nashik. Saptashrungi darshan follows on Day 2, with a night in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, and Aundha Nagnath on the way to Nanded on Day 3. Day 4 is the longest drive: an early start for the hilltop Renuka Devi temple at Mahur, with Anusaya Mata and the Dattatreya shrine if time permits, then on to Latur. Tulja Bhavani darshan at Tuljapur is on Day 5 and Vitthal-Rukmini at Pandharpur on Day 6. Two nights in Kolhapur give time for an early Ambabai darshan, Jyotiba at Wadi Ratnagiri and Panhala before the drive back on Day 8.

Seven hotel nights, seven breakfasts and seven vegetarian dinners, a private AC vehicle for the whole circuit, fuel, tolls, parking, driver allowance and 24x7 support are included. Saptashrungi ropeway or shuttle charges, special puja, lunch and GST are extra. October to February is the most comfortable season, and Navratri brings big crowds, so book early. Our Shakti Peeth list shows where these four temples fit among India's Devi shrines. Active senior citizens manage the route well, and a slower nine-day version can be arranged.
