Geography & terrain
Trikut Hill lies in the Deoghar district of Jharkhand, 12 km from Deoghar and 250 km from Ranchi — the three-peak hill of the region, its ropeway, the temple and the views set on the Jharkhand plateau.
History & culture
The hill's story runs with the 2018 ropeway era — the three-peak hill of the 2018-era ropeway and the 18th-century-era temple of the Basukinath devotion, with the hill's modern role as the pilgrimage stop of the Deoghar circuit and the home of the 2018-era ropeway and the hill temple and the 2000s-era decks; the hill's history of the 19th-century-era legends and the festival days, gives Trikut its three-peak character.
