Mahabaleshwar Tour Plan

Mahabaleshwar Tour - India

✈️ Based on my personal trip to Mahabaleshwar in during July. Written by Debarun Sana.

Mahabaleshwar is a hill station in the western ghat region which is situated from 140 kms in distance from Pune city. We have visited here in July 2021.

When To Visit: 

Generally, Monsoon is the best for visiting these places. June to September is considered good time travel.

How to Reach: 

Nearest airport is PUNE (PNQ) from the airport you can travel by car which will take arounds 3-3.5 hours. There are bus services available from Pune as well which departs from Hinjewadi (Wakad bus terminal)

We have stayed 2 nights 3 days in a beautiful cottage named Krishna cottage 😃

Day 1: 

We started from Pune in the morning around 9:30 to catch bus which about start around 10:30 from Wakad but due to heavy rain bus started 2 hours late. Well no problem as this happens while you are on trip. After 4 hours of journey with break in between we reached Mahabaleshwar in the evening and checked into the MTDC resort. 

The resort is full of trees and jungles making a thrilling experience with rains throughout night.

Day 2: 

Today we had to go for sightseeing. After breakfast with bread and upma we started the day. I forgot to mention this is the first trip of our junior 😃. Today we visited Elphinstone Point, Venna Lake, Strawberry farm, Panchagani, Aurther's Point, Tabletop at Panchagani etc. 
Also, I along with my little experience horse walk in the Panchagani tabletop. 

With refreshing mind, we returned t resort in the evening. If you come in between October to February, you can see all the farms are full of strawberries. 

Day 3: 

Today we had to return to Pune. We had no plan for today apart from starting my office while travelling in cab. It was a sort and effective break from your daily life. If you are around Pune or Mumbai or nearby you can plan such refreshing break.

Chhattisgarh Tour Plan

Chhattisgarh Travel Guide: A 9-Day Itinerary ✈️ Based on my visit to Chhattisgarh. Written by Debarun Sana A note on Bastar and Dantewada This itinerary spends significant time in the Bastar region, which has a real, decades-long history with the Naxalite-Maoist insurgency — the districts of Bastar, Dantewada, Sukma, Bijapur, Kanker, Kondagaon, and Narayanpur have all been affected at various points, including violent incidents as recent as 2023. That said, the situation has genuinely shifted: as of March 31, 2026, Dantewada was officially declared free of active Maoist presence, part of a broader state and central government push to eliminate the insurgency from the region entirely, alongside real tourism investment (new infrastructure, the Bastar Olympics, promotion of sites like the Maa Danteshwari Temple). This is a genuinely positive, well-documented shift — but it's also a very recent development as of this writing, and some local voices still urge cau...
