Khopoliखोपोली

Spend a half‑day exploring the waterfalls and riverfront; stay one night at a farmstay if you want nature, otherwise a day‑trip from Mumbai or Lonavla.

Khopoli is a small industrial town in Raigad, Maharashtra, at the foothills of the Sahyadri range. Its main draw is the seasonal waterfalls and the Patalganga River. It is reachable by train or NH4, making it a convenient side‑trip from Mumbai, Pune or Lonavla. One night suffices to see the falls and enjoy a farmstay; otherwise a few hours are enough for a quick visit.

Rules in force · 6
  • South Asia ↗Trekking regions, border districts and several Indian states need separate permits on top of the visa; check the permit before you book transport into them.
  • South Asia ↗Remove shoes (and in many Jain and Hindu temples, leather) before entering; cover shoulders and legs; ask before photographing people or rituals.
  • India ↗Apply for the e-visa only on the official government portal (indianvisaonline.gov.in); lookalike sites charge extra. Check the current rules, fees and how far ahead to apply.
  • India ↗Do not follow anyone who says your hotel is closed, the station ticket office is closed or a road is shut; use the prepaid taxi counter, the metro or an app car.
  • India ↗Carry Indian rupees in small notes (10, 20, 50, 100); change for 500 is often refused.
  • India ↗Parts of the Northeast, Sikkim, Ladakh, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and all border belts need a Protected or Restricted Area Permit or an Inner Line Permit for foreigners; check before you book the route.
