Snuggling coyly, in the southern ranges of the Sahyadri hills, Amboli at an altitude of 690 m is the last mountain resort before the coastal highlands settle, with a sigh, to form flat beaches. Visit numerous view points for a pleasant view of the lush hills and fertile plain. Seaview Point offers a rare view of the land all the way to the golden Konkan coast. You can spend hours angling for a fish at Hiranya Keshi or picnic at Nagatta Falls, Mahadev Gad and Narayan Gad. For a few days of isolation, Amboli is an ideal resort. |
|
Taxis and richskaws are available, though horseback and bicycles could
add to the feeling of getting away from it all. |
|
Amboli has a cool and invigorating climate -- a welcome respite in summer. |
