Things To Do In Mahabaleshwar In Three Days - Historical Places, Food, Shopping & More

Hey Guys, Mahabaleshwar is one of the most beautiful hill station in Maharashtra which is 5 hours away from Mumbai and 3 hours away from Pune. So we decided to spend 3 days here. Here is what we did in these 3 days. Day 1: We started with 4000 year old temples, Shiv Temple known as Mahabaleshwar Temple, Panchganga Temple which is dedictaed for the confluence of 5 rivers Krishna, Koyna, Venna, Savitri and Gayatri and the thirs one is Krishna Bai Mandir. Mahabaleshwar is settled on the banks of Krishna river and it is said that this temple is the place from where she origins. All temple are very very beautiful. A must visit.

It’s a very toruristy place but we had great time here. There is 2 type of boating paddle boating and rowing boat, we preferred rowing boat with driver. And we paid INR 600. During heavy rains boating is usually closed there. But you can just go for the view and enjoy some snacks like maggi, bhutta. Time: 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM We ended our day in Cafe Peter which is famous for their Korean Menu and coffees. We had some hot Ramen, fries and coffee.

From there we went to Mapro for some fresh Strawberry Cream. Mapro is very famous for their syrups, jams, chocolates and strawberry cream. Without visitng Mapro, your trip to Mahabaleshwar is incomplete.

You can come and read books here for free. Isn’t that great way to promote great literature of our country and encourage reading? Time: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Day 3: You must be wondering why we haven’t yet visited any view points yet because Mahabaleshwar is a hill station so there must be few good view points, right? So we saved this for the last day and we started our day with one of our favourite view point which is Needle Hole View Point from here you can see the Elephant Head Rock Formation, it’s near Kate’s point. There are more than 12 view points in Mahabaleshwar but from here the view is just breathetaking. No Entry Fees Time: 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM Mahabaleshwar has been giving tough competition lately to Mawsynram which is known as wettest place on earth, so it is obvious that this place has some beautiful waterfalls but amongst all the most famous one is Lingmala Waterfall. It’s a 3 step waterfall which cascades down to the valley from the height of 600ft. Time: 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM Entry Fees: INR 25 From there we straight for lunch at Hotel Rajesh, it’s more than 50 years old and famously known for its Gujarati Thali.
