Viewed by 148 travelers

Day 1: Paddle, Raft & Kayak

Morning: Start the day with a refreshing paddle‑boat session on Khadakwasla Dam. The calm waters and scenic backdrop provide a gentle warm‑up before heading out, and you’ll have about two hours to enjoy the lake and snap photos.

Afternoon: After a short drive to Kolad (≈2 hours), gear up for an adrenaline‑pumping white‑water rafting adventure on the Kundali River. Certified guides will lead you through thrilling rapids for roughly three hours, with a brief lunch break on the riverbank.

Evening: Conclude the day at Pawna Lake, where you can unwind with a sunset kayaking session. Glide across the tranquil water as the sky changes colors, and enjoy a light snack by the lakeside before heading back to Pune.
