Planning a Karjat Farmstay Weekend from Pune
Askara Luxury Farmstay ·
Karjat sits between Mumbai and Pune, which makes it an easy meeting point for friends and families split across both cities.
Check routes on the day
There is more than one way to drive down from Pune, and the best one depends on traffic, roadworks and weather. Use a live map on the day rather than relying on an old estimate, and ask us for directions to the property.
Arrive in daylight if you can
Village roads near farmstays are easier to find in daylight, especially in the monsoon. Aim to reach around check-in time, which is 1 pm at Askara.
Meeting friends from Mumbai
If half the group comes from Mumbai and half from Pune, agree a rough arrival window and let the earlier arrivals settle in. Lunch can wait for everyone.
What to bring
- Swimwear and outdoor shoes
- A light layer for the evening
- Phone chargers and a power bank
- Cash or UPI for any chargeable extras
