Visit to Vetal hill, Kothrud, Pune

Vetal Hill

Place : Vetal Hill (Tekdi)
Time : Morning, Evening, May-2016
City : Kothrud, Pune, Maharastra, India
Best Time to Visit : Monsoon

If you like to trek without main road, then you can trek to Vetal Hill from MIT College Gate.

Info : Vetal Hill is a part of Bhamburda Van Vihar located on the western side of Pune Municipal Corporation within the city limits. Vetal Tekdi is prominent and is visible from Pashan, Panchavati, Chatturshrungi and other parts of the city. It has two spurs, Fergusson College Hill and Chatturshrungi Hill.

 I had taken these photographs when I went for everyday morning walk. I went there everyday from my room near MIT Back-Gate by trekking. In morning and evening, there was very nice scenery. There is also large pond there filled by water only in monsoon. Sunrise and Sunset was amazing view. As I like nature photography, I had taken these. There was too many various type of trees, animals. I had also seen peacocks there. I have lived in Surat, Mumbai, Pune for my work. My habit of walking is not left still. But among them, this is best place for morning jogging or trekking.
The Road is constructed over there for Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) established in 1966. So Many people came by bike, cycle, car, jogging. There were various activities done there like yoga, gymnastics, etc by various NGO or group of people.
There were temples of Gajanan Maharaja and Lord Shiva.
