Location: 268km SE of Mumbai.
About:
Panchgani is situated 20km east of Mahabaleshwar and spread over
five hills. It is a small, quiet town with feel of good old days.
The charming old colonial cottages can be find all around the hill
station. Aptly named ''five lands', Panchgani is a very famous hill
station in Maharashtra. Its a place wherein you can lay back and
relax.
There isn't much to see at Panchgani but there is a lot to do. You
can hire bicycle and explore around the narrow streets to have
innocent fun. You can sit and have famous Chanas or Masala Bhuttas
or buy some strawberries for yourself which are grown here in
abundance. The best time to visit Panchagani is from September to
May but the going during monsoons can be fun as trees are greenest
during monsoons.
Accessibility:
You cab take a road route to Panchgani through NH4 (Mumbai to
Surul) via Pune. |
