Really good to go on a weekend trek with friends. It is surprisingly very well maintained and clean, not crowded at all, and the view you get from the top is absolutely breathtaking. It is a nice little fun place to spend time with nature or take a little retreat. Would recommend this place to anyone who visits the city.
Wonderful experience, well maintained, to reach at the top it takes around 30 to 45 minutes, for kids to start trek its a motivation, ₹25 entry to be paid at the entrance of Leni, for foreigners it's ₹300.
When you enter and you have lesd time then surely go towards 11 to 26 then go to the other side, to eat or drink nothing available on top, you have to carry it from step 1, takes total 2 hours to explore everything and have good clicks with you.. it's open 8am 6:30pm maximum.. so plan accordingly, worth a visit to our incredible part of India 🇮🇳
The place is nice to visit and is quite calm and weather is cool ❤️
You need to climb the mountain to reach there where they build stairs of moderate numbers.
At the entrance ticket counter is present and also has toilet and wash basin built behind .
There is a provision of sits and benches as well to take rest.
You will get to see a nice view of the whole city in the top❤️
The caves depicts the ancient accommodation of Buddhist monks and they are built with a unique design and carvings with cave numbers painted in it.
Buddhist caves locally called Pandav Leni. Entry fees for adults is 25. A decent climb of about 250 steps. The place offers a great view of the city.
This place is nice, and comparatively neater. After 10 am, ticket charge of 25 apply. We went there during monsoon so combination of it's carvings and green surroundings made it a good location for photography. You get a good view of the city from the top.. Go to the top too, many tourist dont go to the top as they get tired and assume the first and second floor to be the same. That is the best spot with beautiful carvings and greenery.
You need to climb lot of stairs, so plan this place in the morning.
It’s a heritage site but not as clean as expected. It has to be a little more organised and clean. The staff on duty (especially security) is really helpful. I had no cash and wasn’t able to buy the tickets online due to captcha issues, guards helped me in the process to buy tickets easily.
If you are looking for some archeological site visit in Nashik, this is the place you should go. This place is a historical site having Buddhist Caves which were made long ago and mostly used for meditation & prayers.
Also recommend must visit place for all Fitness Enthusiasts and Trekking Lovers. One can see Nashik from a Bird's Eye View from the top.
Also down there, you can try healthy juices, sweet corn and some snacks too.
This place also has a large ground & Budhh Smarak at the bottom.
The ticketing experience is not good here. We bought our tickets at the top of the hill and had to show our tickets to the security guard. The security guard does not return our tickets and also does not destroy the same.
We observed that the same ticket is being given to most of the Travellers and no new tickets are being issued.
I would request the Travellers to at least mash or wrinkle the ticket so that it is neither destroyed nor re issued as a new ticket. By this means the money we are giving is going to the govt and not to any unauthorized person.
If any person has come across this scam or have experienced the same may please reply below so that I may take up the matter to appropriate authority.
Located in the outskirts of the city are rock cut caves know as Pandavleni caves. It represents Buddhism and believed that it was built for Buddhist monks. Total 24 caves . Each cave has some historical importance . You need to c limb a lot to reach this place so wear your footwear and attire accordingly. Not much of facilities are available so carry your own snacks and water. good place for photography lovers. You need to climb almost 250 stairs to reach top and enjoy the awesome view of the city. good place for trekking and group picnics. You need to buy entry tickets to visit caves. Check timings before going
Best for family and friends
You will love this place as it covers 24 caves & a lot of Budhist work (inscription) inside the cave. There are around 331 steps however it has a very inclined plane & steps are little in height so easy to reach to the top within 20 mins.
