About Mangi Tungi
Located in Taharabad (125 kms from Nashik), Mangi Tungi are twin peaks which are connected with a beautiful and vast plateau that blooms with vibrant wild-flowers and grass during the monsoon season. Even though one has to climb 4500 stairs, the difficulty level of this trek is considered to be between easy to moderate. The staircase is quite well-maintained and if you maintain a steady pace, it takes approximately four to five hours to reach at the top.
Mangi-Tungi is also fairly popular amongst those who hold interest in mythology and archeology. These mountains have many caves with sculptures and carvings of deities like Mahavir, Adinath, Parshvanath, Sugreeva, Hanuman and more. Wait! It gets even more interesting, the Mangi-Tungiis said to be a Jain Digambar Sidha Kshetra and legend has it that around 99 crore saints attained salvation here. Thus, you can find many ancient Jain Tirthankar cravings in these caves too.
