HolidayIQ traveller Aman Dube from Coimbatore shares, “A perfect example of what we say meditation in Isolation. Nestled in Sahyadri ranges. The travel to place will delight you more than the destination. Beautiful landscapes and lakes in the route. Temple being a historical and mythical place will draw your attention. Darshan is hassle free and deity can be clearly seen. Overall a good one day trip from Mumbai.”

An abode to rich wildlife and vegetation, these dense forests lining the Western Ghats also offer a clear view of the beautiful surroundings. Other than the natural scenery, Bhimashankar is exclusively popular among tourists for trekking, birdwatching and other adventure activities.
Sridhar: We went in May first week of 2015- to visit Bhimashankar- Resort has minimum facilities but maximum nature. It was very nice in the evening and night also in the early morning. You can book a trek in the forest with guide and watch flying squirrel . Food was good in the restaurant.
Tip: From Karjat station you need to travel to Khandas village, which is around 40 kms away, either by ST bus or tumtums, plying between Khandas and Kashele. There are 2 routes namely Ganesh Ghat and Shidi (ladder) route to choose from.

Bhimashanker-A travel to nature
There were few things you should keep in minds while visiting there.
1. The darshan remains closed for 45 mins from 2:45 in the afternoon, so make sure that you reach the temple by 1:00 pm by all means.
2. On holidays you would find difficult to fetch a parking, if you are going by your own vehicle. There is only one organized parking right at the gate, with limited space. So, better that you park your vehicle well before it at a safer place.
3. It is a 15 mins walk down from the main entrance to the shiv ling.
Overall it is a nice place, you would enjoy the pathway to the shivling, with full of nature.
