We did plan a family trek to Lohgad on 26th July but the challenge was to walk all the way from Malvali station (the very next station from lonavala towards Pune by local) to Lohgad, a span of 8-9 km as the age group of joining members was ranging from 3 to 60. Even after lot of browsing we could not had any reference to locate a way by car till the basement. Fortunately we came across one reference who tried this just couple of weeks back and we decided to go ahead with his suggested route. It worked out and we can get our car to the base from where we were to just climb the stairs to reach the top. After this trip I can suggest two different routes to reach the base of Lohgad by car. For people traveling from Mumbai or staying back in PCMC, the route is via Lonavala. If starting from Pune take old Mumbai Pune highway. Just after you cross toll plaza before lonavala, keep your left till you cross “Manshakti” There is a Y type left turn just after “Manshakti” Take that left and drive for another 200 odd meter to take very first left again You are on way to lohgad after crossing the place called “Bhangarwadi” from where it is just 8-10 Kms. If you come across a railway crossing and Mumbai-Pune highway twice you are on right track. You are on way to Paud, continue till you reach “Dudhiware Khind” Just before it, take left for Lohgad from here it is around 4 Kms max. The road ahead is very stip with couple of sharp turns but safe. For people traveling from Pune city, the route is via Chandani chowk – Pirangut - Paud After reaching Paud take right and drive for around 40 odd Kms Just after you cross “Dudhiware Khind” you reach to the same place Take right for Lohgad base. It is tar road and you can reach comfortably till the “Paytha”. Have a safe drive. It’s a wonderful place and should be tried in between mid August to mid Sept. when you can still have rain but the intensity comes down.
