Everything worth visiting, a short walk away
Staying with us in Shegaon keeps you close to all that matters - the temple, the gardens and the food the town is famous for. Here is what lies around the lodge.
The temple is the heart of Shegaon
Most guests come to Shegaon for the darshan of Shri Gajanan Maharaj, and the temple is the centre of everything here. From our lodge it is an easy walk - close enough to return between aartis to rest, eat or sit with your family. The places below are all a short walk or quick drive away.
Shri Gajanan Maharaj Mandir
The heart of Shegaon and the reason most guests visit. The samadhi temple of Shri Gajanan Maharaj holds aarti through the day and draws devotees from across India.
Anand Sagar
A sprawling, peaceful complex by the Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan with gardens, a lake, a meditation centre and a musical fountain - a lovely outing for families and children.
Sansthan Mahaprasad Hall
The Sansthan's large dining hall serves simple, satvik mahaprasad to thousands of devotees daily - a humbling part of the Shegaon experience.
Shegaon Kachori Street
Shegaon is famous across Maharashtra for its crisp, spicy kachori. Don't leave town without tasting the local kachori and other street snacks.
Shegaon Railway Station
Well connected on the Mumbai-Nagpur line, Shegaon station makes the lodge easy to reach by train. We can guide you on autos from the station.
Shegaon Bus Stand
State and private buses connect Shegaon to Akola, Khamgaon, Buldhana and beyond, with the bus stand a short ride from the lodge.
Plan your darshan day
A relaxed rhythm that works well for families, groups and senior citizens - temple in the cool of the morning, gentle outings later in the day.
Start with the early aarti
Step out before sunrise for the morning aarti - the temple is calmer and the darshan queue is at its shortest. It is only a short walk from the lodge.
Walk back for breakfast
After darshan, stroll back for a warm breakfast and a little rest. There is no rush - your room is yours for the day to freshen up between trips.
Visit Anand Sagar in the afternoon
When the sun softens, head to Anand Sagar for the gardens, lake and musical fountain. It is a gentle, happy outing for children and senior citizens alike.
Taste the famous Shegaon kachori
Don't leave town without trying the crisp, spicy Shegaon kachori the area is loved for - the kachori street is an easy walk away.
