Spend a fun-filled day at Pune's famous Rajiv Gandhi Zoological Park. Watch tigers, sloth bears and a variety of reptiles as they roam around in the beautiful natural surroundings. The park also has a bird aviary and a snake park. You can also take a mini train ride or a battery-operated vehicle for a more relaxed tour of the park.
Enjoy a trek to the top of Sinhagad Fort, perched atop a hill with spellbinding views of the surrounding hills and valleys. The fort was once owned by the great Maratha warrior Tanaji Malusare. Take in the beauty of the natural surroundings and the cool breeze as you walk through the ruins of the fort.
Have a calm and serene day by the tranquil waters of Khadakwasla Dam. The dam is surrounded by lush hills and is popular for its various boating and adventure sports activities. You can also visit the nearby NSG campus and the quaint Panshet Dam for a more exhaustive day.
If you have more time, you can plan a day-trip to Lonavala and Khandala, towns famous for their beautiful waterfalls, scenic viewpoints and delicious treats like chikki and fudge. You can also include a visit to the famous Aga Khan Palace in Pune, which has a significant place in India's freedom struggle. If you have less time, you can combine your visit to Sinhagad Fort with a visit to the nearby Khadakwasla Dam. Remember to wear comfortable shoes and carry sufficient water and sunscreen.
