The temple officials dont allow you to even stand for a minute, and the shiv ling is visible in the mirror. I could see the face of brahma vishnu mahesh below but my wife couldn’t since the officials were hurrying and not letting anyone stand for more than 3-4secs. Darshan thro vip pass is 200rs and quick else you have to wait in queue for 3 hrs.
Hotels around are very basic. If you want a decent hotel, go for three leaves hotel which is abt 800m from the temple.u cn walk 10min.however its expensive around 3k.
Ghoti trimbak road is well maintained.its a v scenic road if u go in rains.however very lonely n few vehicles cn be spotted.
