easyShort sightseeing stopJul-Sep

If you are looking for a dramatic waterfall on a Bhandardara trip, Randha Falls is a great choice. The Pravara River drops here in a powerful horseshoe-shaped fall, and a roadside deck gives you the full view with no walking required. In the monsoon the roar and spray are at their peak, making it one of the strongest falls in the region. It is about 170 km from Pune with Igatpuri as the nearest station. July to September is when to go, paired with Bhandardara's lake and temples.
