We had left the car before the bhaja caves nd walked up tking the short cuts with our son. Most of them including youngsters went up using vehicles right up to the fork , one goes towards visapur fort and the other towards Lohgadh fort. Climbing up the rocks was enjoyable. Only youngsters were climbing up the rocks.

Visiting Bhimashankar Jyotirling Temple is an yearly trip for us friends, We generally do the 6-8 hours trek from Karjat to the temple through the forests but decided to do a Road trip to reach the temple this time, We started out from Borivili in Mumbai and it took us 5 hours and thirty minutes to reach the Temple, We took the left after the Talegaon Toll naka and joined the GPS - this took us to a shorter but scenic route to the temple, this is advisable for travel buffs with a decently strong car or sub as half the way your won’t find a proper road as roads are still being built in the area, But as a compensation for the hard ride for you and your vehicle you will witness the entire Bhimashankar valley in all it’s natural glory, cool winds, lot is rivulets in between, scenic shots of the mountain and valleys, friendly villager folks all along the way, While coming back we took the longer Manchar route back - Bhimashankar - Manchar - Pune - Chakan - Mumbai Pune Expressway. The Temple is a nationally renowned temple and is one of the Jyotir lings, which are must visit lord Shiva temples spread all across India, this one temple is very ancient, the temple complex is itself situated down in the valley and there are lots of steps to go down, The temple is a must visit in the winters and people should try the trek routes and the drive routes at least once.

It is aptly named as Raj-Gad, literaly meaning a King-Fort. Among all the forts conquered, built and reinstated by the great maratha warrior king Shivaji, this one was his Capital. Difficulty level - average/ medium Reach/ accessibility: easy by private transport best time to visit - any time of the year, avoid peak summers of course.

The journey to Prati Balaji temple in Narayanpur is very scenic specially in monsoon seasons. The temple is in a very nice location. It is around 2 hrs journey from Pune. A must visit place if you plan for a short outside trip

A must visit place if you are in Pune, Visit this place for its history, thrill , beauty & of course Zunka/ pithla bhakari with Dahi . If travelling by car one can reach near base of fort , still one has to climb 150+ steps , but real fun is climbing from village , this is almost 8 km trek , one should make a climb once .

Your trip to Pune is incomplete if you haven't visited Dagaduseth Ganapati Temple. All the prayers made are heard & gets complete. The decoration on Ganesh Chaturthi is just outstanding. You just get mesmerized at first glimpse.. Ganesh festival is on the way and all puneites will rush for that glimpse and famous decorations.. Dont miss last day processions if you are in pune.. #Mustvisit #pune #shanivaarvada #ganeshtemple #dagaduseth
