Palpeshwar Caves 2023

We the Trekking Paltan Group members visited on April 30th 2023.

Lohare Palpeshwar Caves are offbeat destination near to Wai. There are 4-5 caves with some sculptures.  It looks the blend of Hindu and Buddhist caves. The trek is simple. we need 20 to 30 min to reach the caves with clear trail. 30-40 mins are enough to see the caves. The place is lonely. So visit on the weekends. Carry the Food and water with you. 











It is about 80 km from Pune city and 10 km from Wai. There are two ways to reach Lohare base village. one from Pune Satara Highway via Khambataki Ghat - Surur -Wai and other way via Bhor -Mandhardevi Ghat - Pandavgad base to Lohare Village.

If possible park your vehicle in the village. We took our cars here and faced a lot of difficulty in turning the cars. It is a bullock-kart road from the village to the base of the trek. 


Caves are connected and they are in the same ridge
