Nature lovers and adventurers alike will enjoy a visit to Table Land, the second longest mountain plateau in Asia. Not to be missed are the nearby Rajpuri Caves, a network of caves in which Lord Kartikeya of the Hindu mythology is believed to have stayed. Visitors can take a stroll or pony ride around Table Land and enjoy scenic views of the valleys and hills.
A popular viewpoint located on a quiet hilltop, Parsi Point offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Dhom Dam lake, valleys and hills. Named after the Parsi community who once visited to enjoy the views, this spot is perfect for a picnic or for watching the sunset.
Named after Sir Sidney Beckwitt, the Commander-in-Chief of the Mumbai Presidency, Sydney Point is a vantage point that offers stunning views of the Krishna River Valley, Dhom Dam and the city of Wai. Visitors can also explore the quaint bazaar nearby, known for its fresh strawberries, honey, jams, and jellies.
If you have extra time, adventure seekers can go for a trek to Rajpuri caves, Lingmala waterfalls or Rajgad Fort. If you have more time, add a day trip to the hill station of Mahabaleshwar or visit the ancient Krishna Temple in Wai. With less time, skip Parsi Point and spend more time exploring the quaint bazaar around-table-land. Avoid weekends and holidays as it gets crowded, especially during peak season.
