About This Route
The Nashik to Trimbakeshwar route covers approximately 29 km via NH 848 and Gangapur Road, connecting the district headquarters with one of the twelve Jyotirlinga shrines of Lord Shiva, located at the source of the Godavari River. MSRTC runs a steady stream of Ordinary, Semi Luxury, and Sleeper buses through the day, with the journey itself taking roughly 25 minutes to just under an hour depending on traffic near the ghat stretch. Pilgrims and day-trippers visiting the temple — rebuilt by Peshwa Balaji Baji Rao in the mid-18th century — form the bulk of travelers on this short, frequently-served corridor. Early morning or late-evening departures are best for avoiding weekend and Shravan-month crowds at the temple town.
Timings may change during holidays, heavy traffic, seasonal rush or depot schedule updates. For exam, interview, railway connection or hospital travel, confirm the latest departure with the official MSRTC counter or reservation website.
