We started from Pune at around 8am and visit the Thoseghar waterfalls at 12:00pm. Road to Thoseghar from Satara was incredibly scenic and it goes from the edge of the mountains. Below are some photos of my trip.

Thanks for Forest department of Satara for making safe place to view waterfall |
After Thoseghar waterfalls we visit Chalkewadi wind farm which is around 2Km from Thoseghar waterfalls.
We always love travelling back from different route so select the most scenic route which we have ever seen via Satara-Mahabaleshwar State Highway. This State Highway was much better than the NH4 with potholes.
