Where?
Chiplun
240 km from Mumbai
Why?
This beautiful town located on the Mumbai-Goa
highway, is just the right place to lay
anchor and take day trips to exotic locales
nearby. The sheer sight of the Vaishishti
River calmly flowing through Chiplun is
worth going all the way. Then you can
do the day trips to Guhagar beach (50
kms.), Ganapatiphule (110 kms.), Parshuram
temple (210 kms.) and Mango country Ratnagiri
(80 kms).
How to get there?
The drive to Chiplun along the Mumbai-Goa
national highway 17 is a great one-with
smooth roads all the way. If you must
take a break stop at Biswa at Mahad- a
clean joint offering decent food at a
decent price.
Where to stay?
If you want to stay in a hotel with the
best view and super comforts, then check
out the Gateway Riverview Lodge.
The place has an old world charm with
every room overlooking the winding river.
Apart from all comforts the hotel offers
games and activities to keep the kids
busy while you unwind in luxury. (Tel;
