Longing a peaceful yet adventurous getaway from Mumbai? Head to Khindsi Lake, near Nagpur, (approx. 854 km from Mumbai) nestled amidst Maharashtra’s lush wilderness. Surrounded by rolling hills and verdant forests, this serene lake is the perfect blend of tranquility and thrill. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed day of boating or adrenaline-fueled jet-skiing, Khindsi promises a weekend escape like no other.

Bringing adventure, nature, and history together!

Unlike the crowded beaches of Mumbai, Khindsi Lake welcomes all with tranquil waters perfect for boating and water sports. The lake's crystal-clear surface mirrors the sky, creating a mesmerising play of light and shadow throughout the day. Adventure seekers can try their hand at kayaking or take a peaceful boat ride, while nature lovers can spot various bird species that call this ecosystem home.

Adding on, the nearby Ramtek Fort Temple adds a spiritual dimension to your getaway. Legend has it that Lord Rama rested here during his exile, making it a significant pilgrimage site. The ancient temple complex, perched atop a hill, offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

For those interested in engineering marvels, the massive Totladoh Dam on the Pench River stands as a testament to human ingenuity. This vital infrastructure not only provides irrigation to the region but also contributes to its power needs.

Khindsi Lake is open daily from 10 AM to 6:30 PM, with the best time to visit being during winter (November to February) for pleasant weather and a full, bird-filled lake. If you enjoy lush greenery and the sound of raindrops, the monsoon (July to September) offers a magical experience, though some activities may be restricted due to heavy rains. For adventure lovers, summer (March to June) is perfect for water sports like jet skiing and paddle boating. While there’s no entry fee, boat rides and activities range from ₹75 to ₹100 per person, depending on your choice.

Khindsi Lake is your ideal weekend escape!

Whether you’re eager to bask in nature’s charm, delve into history, or fuel your adventurous spirit, Khindsi Lake has it all. This destination seamlessly blends scenic beauty with cultural discovery, captivating every traveller who visits.

So, pack your bags and plan a visit to Khindsi Lake—a perfect weekend escape that will leave you refreshed, inspired, and longing for more!
