Mahur is amongst the four places of pilgrimage having the abodes of the three and a half goddesses that are of major significance in the state of Maharashtra. The other three are Kolhapur, Tuljapur, and Saptashringi. Mahur is the abode of the goddess Renuka, mother of Shree Parshuram. There are many old temples here, as well as the one strategically important Ramgad Fort.
The place is in Kinwat taluka and is about 130 km away from Nanded city. The temple of Renukadevi is located on a hill top. There are also Shri. Dattatray and Shri. Parshuram temples. There are carved caves in the hills around Mahur. Mahur is surrounded by thick forests. Wild animals are found in these forests. One can sight beautiful view of valleys and waterfall in rainy season from the temple.
