Karjat, Lonavala or Alibaug: Choosing Your Weekend
Askara Luxury Farmstay ·

All three are popular weekend escapes. The right one depends on whether you want hills, a busier hill-station feel, or the sea.
Karjat: countryside and quiet
Karjat suits people who want green fields, the Sahyadri hills, farmstays and private villas, and a slower pace.
Lonavala: a well-known hill station
Lonavala is a familiar hill-station destination with viewpoints and plenty of places to eat. It can be busy on weekends and holidays.
Alibaug: the coast
Alibaug is the choice for beaches and the sea. How you get there and how long it takes depends on your route and mode of transport.
Questions to decide
- Hills or sea?
- Busy or quiet?
- Do you want to go out, or stay in one place?
- Where is everyone travelling from?
