The Best Route: Aurangabad to Nashik via Highway

For the smoothest and fastest travel experience, we highly recommend the Samruddhi Expressway (Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi Mahamarg) route. This access-controlled, 8-lane elevated highway has revolutionized road travel in Maharashtra [[33]].

Step-by-Step Route Guide:

  1. Start: Pick up from your location in Aurangabad (Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar).
  2. Enter Expressway: Merge onto the Samruddhi Expressway via the Aurangabad interchange.
  3. The Drive: Enjoy a high-speed, pothole-free drive towards the Nagpur direction for about 30-40 km.
  4. Exit: Take the Shirdi/Nashik exit smoothly.
  5. Final Stretch: Proceed via State Highway or NH848 through Shirdi and Sinnar to reach Nashik city center or Trimbakeshwar.
💡
Pro Travel Tip: The Samruddhi Expressway route is not only faster but also significantly safer and more fuel-efficient than the older Vaijapur-Sinnar state highway route. Our Singhavi Tours drivers are thoroughly trained on this route to ensure you reach on time, every time.
