- EkMusafirPune, India2,213 contributionsThis is a very big lake with serene waters near Malshej Ghat on the Kalyan - Ahmednagar Highway (NH-61). We happened to pass this lake while driving from Otur to Malshej Ghat. We first crossed a bridge near Junnar across the backwaters of the lake and then we saw the huge expanse of water on the right side as we were driving towards Malsej.
There is a lovely backdrop of the hills of the Sahyadris in the background, and the shimmering waters of the lake in the foreground. The sight is beautiful to behold. When we went there were no clouds, but I am sure it will look heavenly in the rainy season, with the monsoon clouds hovering above the hills.
We stopped at the resort ‘Saj By The Lake’ for lunch, which has got good rooms bordering the lake and dam. We were told that sometimes migratory flamingos stop by for nesting in the lake during the winter, but there were none at the time we visited.Written 18 January 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I have seen some hollywood movies where the Dams gets broken lots and lots of water came and everything gets underwater, I had imagined the same when I was on-road driving towards Lavasa. I increased my car speed to be saved by this.

Though it is a challenging ride by road,which is not smooth at all,dotted by small villages and their narrow rioads,one can relax in the MTDC hotel,which is reasonably clean or a modern hotel on the main road.One has to depend on one’s own resources for enetainment,but if one is looking for nature trails or alone time,this is perfect.Be sure to go before it gets humid in summer months,The greenery is verdant and nature lovers will find plenty of variety in flora and fauna.Written 9 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
