Shirota Lake

0  Views

While Lonavala is mainly known for its Pawna Dam and well, Maganlal's 10,000 shops, Shirota Lake is a hidden gem waiting to be unleashed by responsible travellers. The lake's nestled on the foothills of the Rajmachi Fort, and is around ten kilometres away from Lonavala and Khandala, with a campsite that offers a calming experience. 

How To Reach:  Take a train till Lonavala, and then hire a rickshaw or cab to reach the lake. 

Distance From Mumbai:   95 kilometres (approx) 

Best Time To Visit:  You can go here all-year round. 

What Makes It Awesome:  For people who aren't in for hiking but also want something more than just camping by the lake, this one's a perfect sight. Because to reach Shirota, one has to cross jungles and streams. Also, you'll hardly find humans. Bond with doggos and use them as guides (Keep that Parle-G handy for bribing them too)
