Saptashringi, 4,645 ft, is a huge rocky hill in
Nasik District. It has seven peaks and the word Saptashringi has been derived from two words ‘Sapta’ meaning seven and ‘Shringi’ meaning pinnacle.
Saptashringi enshrines a temple dedicated to Goddess Saptashringi. It is home to a variety of rare medicinal herbs. According to legends, Lord Hanuman carried herbal medicine for wounded Lakshman from here. Besides, numerous water reservoirs known as kundas can be spotted here.
The spot is a perfect base for rock climbing. Vani, about 55 km north of Nasik, lies at the base of the Saptashringi Hill.
