Location & Accessibility

With the old Mumbai-Pune highway renovated, it's a smooth and scenic drive all the way, only stopping occasionally for herds of grazing sheep and cattle. Also, with the new proposed Panvel-Neral-Bhimashankar-Pune road, driving time is expected to be reduced by another 30 minutes.
