How To Reach Sita Kund

Sasaram, Bihar, India
A Local Sanctuary of Nature and Myth: The Sita Kund in Sasaram is a sacred water body or natural pool (kund) located in the forested foothills of the Kaimur Range, specifically in the Sikaria area, distinct from the more famous namesake sites in Munger and Sitamarhi; this Sasaram kund is deeply root ed in local folklore, believed to have been a bathing place for Goddess Sita during her exile (Vanavasa) with Lord Rama and Lakshmana, lending it a profound religious significance for the regional Hindu community; the kund is typically fed by a minor, perennial spring or a seasonal stream from the Kaimur Hills, and the water is generally clear and cool, making it a welcome spot for pilgrims and travelers alike; the site often features a small, simple shrine dedicated to Sita and Rama, maintained by local priests or villagers; the entire atmosphere is one of humble devotion and natural beauty, situated away from the historical monuments of the city and providing a link between Sasaram's geological features and the timeless narratives of the Ramayana; it is an important local pilgrimage stop, especially during festivals like Ram Navami and Vivah Panchami, when large groups of devotees from the surrounding villages gather for ritual bathing and puja, reinforcing the local cultural identity and spiritual heritage of the Rohtas region, offering a serene contrast to the dynamic waterfalls nearby.

How to Reach

By Air: The nearest major airport is Patna (PAT) (approx. 170 KMS); from the airport, a taxi is needed for the 3-4 hour road journey to Sasaram city, and then a local transfer to the remote hill area; By Train: Arrive at Sasaram Junction Railway Station (SSM); the kund is about 12 KMS away, making the final leg by road essential; By Road (From City) From Sasaram city, hire a jeep or a robust auto-rickshaw to travel towards Mahua Dihra in the Sikaria region on the foothills of Kaimur; the road quality is variable, with the last stretch often being a rough, unpaved village track, requiring careful driving; the total journey from the city center takes approximately 40-50 minutes; By Local Transport: Shared auto-rickshaws may take you to Sikaria village, but a dedicated hired vehicle is usually necessary for the final stretch to the kund at Mahua Dihra; the best approach is to combine this visit with the nearby Hanuman Dhara Water Fall or Dhankadha Waterfall by hiring a single round-trip taxi, ensuring a smoother journey and a better rate, as this is a clustered circuit of remote nature spots.
