Panchgani Call of the Monuments

There’s a reason why the British chose Panchgani as a favourite summer resort. Make that many reasons. The name means five hills and the beautiful mountains make this the perfect getaway from Mumbai when you want respite from the noise, heat and pace of the city. The mountain air is pure and Panchgani enjoys mild weather through the year. As winter creeps up, it turns colder, adding to its charms. So, pull on your warm clothes and head for the higher climes of Panchgani, where you can take quiet walks amidst woods where the silver oak stands. At this time of year, the poinsettia begins to bloom as well, brightening the hillside with its hues.



While slowing down and watching the mist roll across the mountains is most people’s idea of a break in Panchgani, there’s plenty to do and see as well. Sydney Point, situated on a hillock facing the Krishna Valley, is a perfect spot from which to take in views of the Dhom Dam and Pandavgad. Visit also Table Land, an imposing expanse of laterite rock, considered the second longest mountain plateau in Asia. Stop for scenic views at Parsi Point en route Mahabaleshwar. Devil’s Kitchen, at the southern end of Table Land, is wrapped in myth and worth taking a look at. It is believed that the Pandavas made the place their home for a while and also created the Pandavgad caves nearby.
