About Pabargad
An offbeat summit in the Harishchandragad range that sees a fraction of its neighbour's traffic. The reward is quiet, grassland ridges, old cisterns and unbroken views towards Kokan Kada with nobody else around.
What to see and do
- Solitude, often the only group on the hill
- Ridge views towards Harishchandragad
- Rock-cut water tanks near the summit
- Grassland plateau in post-monsoon green
Part of Sahyadri (Western Ghats).
