A cool and calm hill station near Mumbai with 🍓 flavour
Mar 2022 • Family
This place is about 250 km from Mumbai. It can be visited for pleasant climate and to get a break from busy life. There are a few points which can be visited, else cool and calm environment in a good hotel is itself enough.
Boating at Venna lake, horse riding, visit to Mahabaleshwar, panchganga temples are also good experiences. Strawberry season in January to March has obvious advantages.
The amenities here are costlier considering their quality. Some charges collected on random names like tourist charges etc to enter Mahabaleshwar or Panchgani are irritating as they offer no facilities to tourist for it.
Shopping is not a good idea (except for fresh strawberries, goose berries) as most of the items are available at other places easily.

Awesome Trip
Oct 2021
Awesome place to visit. But avoid two things

1. never go through any package (Special from Garden Hill or Yash Yatra)
2. Never stay at Rahi or Rahi Plaza..

Otherwise, every thing is just superb

Nice Hill Station
Aug 2021
We went to Mahabaleshwar in the month of August 2021 just after the lockdown were lifted in Mahabaleshwar and all the points were made open. We went for 3N/4D and our stay was in Brightland Resorts on Kates Point Road. During our stay in Mahabaleshwar, the weather was quite chill and foggy. It was drizzling continuously throughout day and night. If you are self driving than be cautious.

From Mumbai, we travelled to Pune by Train and thereafter we have hired a cab from safarnama.in. I recommend this option for those people who have issues in travelling through bus. Whilst returning, made a mistake of travelling through train from Satara to Dadar, instead should have done the same whilst coming to Mahabaleshwar, cause, it consumed much more time whilst returning to Mumbai.

Pros:

1. The weather is amazing during monsoon which makes quite soothing and relaxing.
2. More number of tourist places which includes various points, lakes and historical monuments

Cons:

1. Sightseeing is costly in Mahabaleshwar along with the food
2. The tour operator / local guide will charge you much more for covering most number of points, wherein 3-4 points are there at the same place (Ref. Kates Point)
3. During Monsoon, horse riding is not recommendable, due to foggy weather, where you cannot see anyone who even walks in front of you.
4. I find Mapro Gardens as overrated and costly, can avoid.

Again and Again
Feb 2021
I have been to Mahabaleshwar twice. The 2nd time I went this February, I thought due to lockdown we will get less traffic, but we have got big big traffic. too many cars and too many people.

everyone nearby went to mahabaleshwar, it seems like that. We visited sunset point, rock garden and maple.

I like mahabaleshwar a lot, will visit again, you will find too many waterfalls in rainy season, the nature will mesmerise you, you will feel the freshness in your mind.

Must visit in a year !!!
Mar 2021
This place has everything to enjoy with friends, family. Mountains, Tourist Points, Lake and good options available to have food. Lots of hotels to choose for stay depending on individual's choice and budget. Do visit Pratapghad fort. Worth to visit Mapro food park and Mapro factory.
Climate in summer is pleasant but definitely to try to visit post monsoon to experience to winter in this amazing and beautiful place. A combine package to visit Panchgani, Mahabaleshwar and Pratapghad fort will be ideal.
