Start your day with a peaceful walk by the Lonavla Lake, a calm spot with beautiful surroundings that make it perfect for relaxation and meditation. Next, head to the Rajmachi Point to witness the breathtaking view of the Sahyadri mountains and valleys. Afterward, visit the peaceful Ryewood Park to enjoy nature and see the historical Shiva Temple. Finally, take a stroll around the Bhushi Dam, a mesmerizing spot with lush greenery and tranquil waterfalls.
Start with an early morning visit to the Karla Caves, an ancient Buddhist site with impressive rock-cut architecture dating back to the 2nd century BC. Afterward, drive to the top of the hill to visit the historic Rajmachi Fort and enjoy the scenic views of the Konkan coast. Next, visit the Bhaja Caves, another ancient Buddhist site with impressive rock-cut architecture and scenic views. End your day by watching the sunset at the Lion's Point, a stunning viewpoint with panoramic views of the valley.
For nature lovers, we recommend taking short hikes at Rajmachi and Lion's point in the early morning to avoid crowds, reduce the heat, and enjoy a better experience. If you have more time, we suggest adding a trip to the Korigad Fort and Tikona Fort for a more extensive historical experience. Alternatively, visitors who are looking for some adrenaline rush can add a trek to the Lohagad Fort instead of Bhaja Caves.
