About Pandavkada Falls
A 107-m fall on the Kharghar hills, close enough to Navi Mumbai that thousands walk up on a monsoon Sunday. That popularity is also why it gets restricted at peak flow, the plunge pool has a bad record.
What to see and do
- The 107-m cascade at full monsoon flow
- Kharghar hills and valley viewpoint
- Very easy access from Navi Mumbai
- Central Park and golf course nearby
Part of Sahyadri (Western Ghats).
