I need to travel to Murud (janjira) from Pune. which is the best route that i can take from Pune.?

Question

I heard that the road conditions from Khopoli to Pen are really bad. Can anyone throw light on this if any one has travelled on this route.

Answer 1

Hi!

We went there by car about two years ago. If I remember correct we first took the national-highway back to Pavel and then the road south to Karnala - Pen - Rewanda - Murud. I think, it took about 4 hours.

Train is out of question as there is no direct or indirect service. By S.T. you have plenty of services  from Shivajinagar, Pune S.T. stand The journey  takes six hours.

By Car: It is very true that road conditions are worst. Instead take Express highway up to Panvel. Turn to your left when you see sign post showing Panvel. From Panvel take Goa Highway Pen is 27 km away. From there first to Alibaug and then to Murud ( Janjira ). Don't forget to get off at Kashid beach just 10 km before Murud. It is a white sand beach with clear water very beautiful and right on highway.

On your return take Tamhini Ghat route for a change through Paud road entering Erandwana in Pune. Have pleasant  and comfortable Journey. Bye
