This is journey for an overnight stay at Rusticville near Tikonapeth (on foothills of Tikona fort) near Lonavala
The location is RusticVille - in a farm where all the necessary amenities are provided (including stay, food, water, bathroom, television (on request) and Barbeque (which is most unique - as its in open air)
Direction from Mumbai - The road reaching to Rusticville is also very exciting from Mumbai to Lonavala you take Expressway - exit from 1st exit to Lonavala - after kamath - take RIGHT turn after Kumar Resorts and then continue till you get a Shivaji statue ahead of Lonavala rly station. From the statue take LEFT (you will cross the lonavala vegetable and fruit market) and continue towards your right side till a Y junction - towards your right is Sinhagad Institute entry but you need to take LEFT (reference - Amarja Estate) continue straight uphill and then you cross a temple (Wagoba devsthant - Tiger temple) to your right.
Once you cross this temple you get a straight and LEFT road - take the left road which will look like cutting of rock mountain (experience the cool atmosphere here - if you keep your car windows open)
This is a lonely road with a single track and very few vehicles execpt the village vehicles or on weekends when people visit the resorts....after 5-6kms on this road ...there lies ahead the PAWNA DAM water body....breathtaking view with mountains on all sides and BLUE water and you drive all the way for next 10kms ....be sure to stop in between to have photographs or a look at the beautiful picturesque.
Once you are done with the uphill road and cross Pawna dam you will travel downhill on the other side of the dam with SHANTAI restaurant and hall on your right side - now take the RIGHT turn and go ahead 6kms uphill again till you reach Tikonapeth or your destination - tikona fort/ Rusticville
This is Rusticville on the foothills of Tikona FORT:
The best part of this so-called-resort is its OPEN AIR and we stay close to NATURE with stay in TENTS and river nearby - being an offbeat location provides you a good ambience and stay.
If you need any more information; do write to me.
thanks
