1 Nights / 2 Days
Igatpuri is one of the most preferred weekend getaway destinations for both Mumbaikars and Punekers. It is around 120 KMs from Mumbai and 240 KMs from Pune. It lies between Mumbai and Nasik. It has a very huge railway station that makes it extremely easy to commute and get around there. Trains leave from Mumbai and Nasik to Igatpuri at different times, you can choose as per your convenience. If you have a car, I would suggest you do a road trip and take the car as it allows you more liberty to stop and click photos of the beautiful valley and waterfalls. The train, however, has its own charm. The train passes through mountains and offers a scenic view. I took a train. It was safe and convenient for a solo traveler like me. Alternatively, you can also opt for buses that run from Mumbai, Pune, and Nasik to Igatpuri.
Distance from Mumbai Airport – 122 KMs
Distance from Pune Airport – 255 KMs
Distance from Nasik Airport – 65KMs
