One Day Mumbai To Lonavala Trip By Cab

Lonavala is a charming hill station and municipal council perched at about 624 m above sea level in India’s Western Ghats, within Pune district of Maharashtra. Located just under 100 km east of Mumbai and roughly 64 km west of Pune, Mumbai to Lonavala trip, it has long served as a cool summer retreat.

Spread over some 38 km², Lonavala is famed for its sweet brittle called chikki and for its strategic position along both the Mumbai–Pune Expressway and the old National Highway 48, making it easily accessible by road and rail.

Originally established by the British in 1871 alongside neighbouring Khandala, the town sits amid rolling sugarcane fields, dense forests, and mist-clad valleys. Visitors flock here for dramatic viewpoints like Tiger’s Leap and Lion’s Point, cascading waters at Bhushi Dam, the candlelit rock-cut sanctuaries of Karla and Bhaja Caves, and historic forts such as Lohagad and Rajmachi.

Beyond its natural and historical attractions, Lonavala’s pleasant year-round climate—with monsoon-fed greenery from June to September and crisp winter days thereafter—makes it an ideal quick escape from the urban sprawl.
