The way of getting to Lohagad[3412ft]-Visapur[3567] is simple. You have to catch any express train for Poona from Mumbai CST main & get down at LONAVALA. From here you need to catch a local train (Poona locals) which runs between lonavala & poona. Get down at MALAVALI station. From here Bhaje village is at a distance of 3 kms. The route from Bhaje to the village at the base of Lohagad called Lohagadvadi is a bit confusing. That is so because the route is through a forest and moves for a long time in the direction of Visapur. So if you are going here for the first time & dont wish to take risks its better you take along a guide ( called VATADYA in local lingo). You can visit lohagad and stay overnite in Lohagadvadi. From here you can start early morning for Visapur. Visapur is a huge place for exploring. It takes nearly 3 hrs to go around the entire place.
