Bored with crowded vacationer spots? These offbeat hill stations close to main cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore & extra are good for a serene, refreshing escape on a brief go away.
Bhandardara – Hidden gem close to Mumbai: A relaxed village tucked within the Sahyadris, Bhandardara provides waterfalls, lush greenery, Arthur Lake, and the well-known Randha Falls. Superb for monsoon and post-monsoon weekend breaks. Not like Lonavala or Matheran, Bhandardara stays quiet. Trek to Kalsubai, Maharashtra’s highest peak, or camp by the lakeside underneath starry skies.
