  • Good maintenance. No parking fee. But a very small parking area as it is on top of the hill. Beautiful garden with nice infrastructure. The hanging wooden bridge is the main attraction here. It is safe and fun. Washroom and drinking water available.
  • This is one place which is accessible at the start of the Panchgani location. Just before Ravine Hotel. Can drive through narrow roads to each at the parking and take steps or walk on the road towards the top. Gives amazing view of the valley with river and hills around. Good for photography but if you are visiting during monsoon, rains with Dense fog will ruin the view, but monsoons also comes with some of the best views when you get to see fog and mist around giving you different views of the location. Popular with tourist.
  • Sydney Point is one of the best attraction place for Panchgani-Mahabaleshwar tourist. It is a small spot at the top of Panchgani hill station. Amazing place with cool breeze and pollution free environment and greenery around. It provides a stunning view of surrounding hill area. You can enjoy scenic hilltop overlook from here. It is best to visit Sydney Point during sunrise and sunset. The hanging wooden bridge is the main attraction here. From this bridge you can take splendid pictures. I went there with my family in May 2022. Here is very limited parking space. Washroom and drinking water available. We enjoyed the trip most and return back with lovely memories of the heavenly place.
  • If you want to experience best sunset of your life do visit this place ! It's a different feeling to experience No photos or video can do justice to the vibe you feel being present there .
  • Beautiful place with a panoramic view of the Valley. I have never witnessed the wind so intense that I have witnessed here. Must visit view point, located just a few minutes drive from main road. Place well maintained. The panaromic view of the mountains, lake and clouds is amazing, being at a height you can feel the breeze.. Its totally worth it visiting there
