Tiger’s Point

Reviewed By einfacher_kerl - Pune, India

The perfect time to visit this place is either sunrise or the sunset. But one more time is special to visit this place is late night in summer. Which gives you a clear sky view with more number of stars visible by naked eye

Tiger's Leap

Reviewed By RajuSalvi - Pune, India

This turned out to be the mind blowing place of our one day trip of 9th November 2019. Nature at its best. It is the one of the best place for Nature Lovers. How to reach from Pune: A) Distance: 87 km B) Route: Pune to Lonavla via old Pune Mumbai road C) Directions: Tip: It is on the Bhooshi dam or INS Shivaji route. After crossing Lonavala bus stand junction drive further till next junction at Kumar resort. Take left turn from this junction & proceed straight till you come across very 1st right T junction. Take right turn then the road is straight till Tiger Point passing Lonavala Lake, Bhooshi Dam & INS Shivaji. Distance from Kumar resort to Tiger point is 13 km. Tiger point is also called as Lion point. D) Free entry E) Parking Ample space Rs.20 for bikes Rs.50 for cars Rs.100 for bus E) Food Snacks: Plenty of food snacks center available F) On Tiger Point / Lion Point It is a mind blowing place offering breathtaking views of mountain valleys. It has fence near the mountain edge for safety purpose. One hour is more than enough to spend at this place plus Echo point 100 meter away. There are two gates for the Tiger point. Upstream gate or very first gate & downstream or second gate. From downstream gate, echo point is at 150 meter distance. Even though I mentioned one hour, one may feel to spend more time just watching the spectacular views at his place. G) Photos It is the most photogenic point hence each & every one will be busy in taking selfies or photographs. Do watch photos on tripadvisor plus in this review to know what you will see there. You should be lucky enough to have the clear sky to get the best photos. Unfortunately the sky was less clear during our visit. H) Best Time To Visit: Monsoon with clear sky Rainy season with clear sky June to January month I) Trip plan Following was our plan of one day trip: Gaatha Mandir at Dehu Shirdi Saibaba temple at Shirgaon Bhaja Cave Karla Cave Tiger Point Rajmachi Garden Sunset Point Nature lovers please visit this place immediately without any second thot.
