From the book “Sri Vraja-maṇḍala-parikramā”:
This well is situated some distance away on the right side of the path that goes from Sakhīgiri-parvata to Ūñcāgaon. Śrī Dāūjī and Lalitā daily bathed in Triveṇī-kūpa. Once, in the month of Māgha (January–February), Lalitā and the other sakhīs desired to bathe at Triveṇī, which is the confluence of the Gaṅgā, Yamunā and Sarasvatī Rivers. Śrī Kṛṣṇa therefore created this well for them with the tip of His flute, right before their eyes. Merely by His remembering them, the holy waters from the confluence at Triveṇī appeared in the well, and the gopīs could bathe. A person easily attains the fruit of bathing in Trivenī simply by putting the dust surrounding the well on his head, what to speak of actually bathing in the water of this well.

From the book “Chaurasi-kosa Vraja Mandala Parikrama”:
The word ‘triveni’ refers to the ‘three rivers’ which are: Ganges, Yamuna, and Saraswati. These three sacred rivers meet each other at Prayag (Allahabad) at a place called the Triveni Sangama. The word ‘kupa’ means a ‘well’ and anyone who bathes in this sacred well, achieves exactly the same benefit as if bathing in the Triveni Sangama at the confluence of the Ganges, Yamuna, and Saraswati at Prayag. It is believed that this ancient well was created by Shri Krishna on the occasion of the Magh-mela, by pushing His flute into the ground. This was in order to please the gopis who desired to take a holy bath at Prayag during the month of Magh, and thus Krishna manifested the Triveni Sangama here at Unchagrama for their benefit. It is said that Shrimati Lalita Devi used to take bath here regularly. It is further said that Lord Balarama also bathed here whenever He was performing pastimes with the cowherd boys at Unchagrama.
