Shikharji (Sikharji), Giridih district, Jharkhand, India, is located on Parasnath, the highest mountain of the Parasnath Range. It is a Jain Tirtha (pilgrimage site) believed to be the place where twenty of the twenty-four Jain tirthankaras along with many other monks attained Moksha
The pilgrimage to Shikharji is a round trip of 30 km through the Madhuban forest. The section from Gandharva Nala stream to the summit is the most sacred to Jains. The pilgrimage is made on foot or by a litter or doli carried by a doliwallah along a concrete paved track. Along the track are shrines to each of the twenty four tirthankaras and vendors of tea, coffee, water, fruits and snacks.
There is an option for parikrama of the entire Parasnath Hill, a pilgrimage of 54 kilometres (34 mi). The parikrama path is through the forest and is walking only
