Kalsubai Peak is the highest peak in Maharashtra, standing tall at 1,646 meters. Start your journey early in the morning as the trek can take around 4-5 hours to reach the summit. Enjoy the picturesque views of the Sahyadri mountain range while you trek. Once you reach the top, you are rewarded with the breathtaking view of the Bhandardara Lake and the surrounding mountains. Have a packed lunch while soaking in the view. On your way down, visit the Kalsubai temple, which is situated at the base of the peak and is an important pilgrimage site.
Spend your day relaxing by the serene Bhandardara Lake. Take a boat ride or go fishing with your family. The Wilson Dam is a must-visit spot while you're there. It is a beautiful site where the Pravara River meets the Bhandardara Lake, and you can take a walk across the dam. In the evening, take a stroll around the lake and enjoy the sunset while snacking on some local street food.
If you have time, visit the Umbrella Falls, which is a beautiful waterfall situated within the Sahyadri mountain range. You can also take a day trip to the Randha Falls and the Sandhan Valley, which are both located within a 2-hour drive from Kalsubai. Make sure to carry enough water and snacks for your journey.
