Monsoon Getaways Near Mumbai: Why Karjat Should Be Your Next Stop
Craving a rainy-season escape that’s close to the city but far from the chaos?
As the monsoon clouds roll in, nature begins to bloom—and the Sahyadris transform into a lush green paradise. If you’re looking for the perfect weekend monsoon getaway near Mumbai, Karjat should be at the top of your list.
Just a couple of hours from Mumbai and Pune, Karjat offers waterfalls, trekking trails, scenic drives, and cozy villas like Geeta Bhawan Villa that let you enjoy the rain in complete comfort.
🌧️ Why Travel During Monsoon?
Many people hesitate to travel during the rains, but monsoon travel has unique perks—lush landscapes, cooler temperatures, fewer crowds, and romantic moods. The Sahyadri hills turn into an artist’s canvas of green with wisps of mist and gushing streams. For couples, families, or solo travelers, the rainy season is an unmatched time to connect with nature.
Moreover, traveling during monsoons can be more affordable, as off-season rates apply to many stays. The overcast skies, rhythmic sound of rainfall, and earthy aroma of wet soil elevate the experience into something deeply rejuvenating. It’s not just about sightseeing—monsoon travel is about feeling present and peaceful.
🚗 Just a Short Drive from Mumbai or Pune
Karjat is easily accessible by road and train. Within just 2–2.5 hours, you can reach this peaceful hill station, making it ideal for spontaneous weekend trips.
The drive itself becomes magical during monsoons—misty roads, rain-drenched trees, and occasional roadside tea stalls set the tone for a cozy getaway.

Bhivpuri Waterfalls – Perfect for a refreshing dip or easy hike
Kondana Caves – A monsoon trek through dense green trails
Ulhas River – Calmer during rains and ideal for riverside moments
