Bhushi Dam is a beloved outdoor spot near Lonavala, famous for its stepped spillway that transforms into a series of mini waterfalls during the monsoon. Visitors flock here to wade in the cool, gushing water, sit on the stone steps, and enjoy the misty atmosphere surrounded by verdant hills. The dam itself is a modest structure, but the experience of splashing in the overflow channels and picnicking by the water makes it a refreshing retreat. It's a lively, family-friendly destination where the sound of rushing water and laughter fills the air, particularly on rainy weekends.
Don't miss
- Wade and play in the cascading water along the stepped spillway
