Twin summer retreats -- Lonavala and Khandala

Tucked away near the bustling student city Pune, Lonavala and the adjacent picturesque hill-station Khandala are the twin hill stations, 622 m. above sea level and simply 5 kms apart from each other. Nestled on the Sahyadri ranges, the twin hill-stations are around 64 km from Pune and 96 km from Mumbai. A popular getaway from residents of Mumbai and Pune, Lonavala known as the 'Jewel of the Sahyadri' is situated in the western part of Maharashtra. Khandala is smaller, quieter and calmer of the two, though browsing through Lonavala's bazaar could yield some wonderful surprises. Both the hill stations are known for their scenic beauty, green hills, deep valleys,historic forts, lakes and waterfalls.The main attraction for coming to Lonavala is the sequence of great caves - like Bhoja (2nd century B.C.), continuing with Bedsa (1st century B.C.) and last but not the least Karla.
