GavliDev Waterfall & Bird Sanctuary

We randomly explored this place and it turned out to be so good. It was quite crowded on weekend. There is a trek for about 20-25 mins which takes you to these beautiful waterfalls. It is easily accessible as it is around the city near Ghansoli. The overall trek was fine however in rainy season it can be risky too. You can sit and enjoy the flowing water or stand beneath the big waterfall. Just go and visit, its worth it!

The Waterfall is in Ghansoli and you can go via local to Ghansoli station, from station it is around 3-5 km so it's better to take an auto, usually ranging from 90 to 100 rupees.
Once you reach there you would see a small parking zone and a gate to enter.

You have to walk upstairs for almost 20-30 minutes to reach to Waterfall, the difficulty level is moderate.

The Waterfall is beautiful and tempting, it's good enough for 30-50 people at a time.

Note: We go further higher we would reach to small pond, from where the source of Waterfall starts, people were enjoying in it, however it is not recommended. Also, female should avoid going Here.

Overall a good place to visit if you are in Navi Mumbai.

An exotic place amidst the Rabale Industrial Area. The road to the place is awesome. The place has a decent parking spot to accomodate 15 cars. Went in peak summer early morning and the place was very cool. The total trek time would be 15-20 min. It has stairs only in the frontage, and rest would be kaccha route in the forest. The top of the hill alone would have a little steep descent which is not easy for elders and kids. There are benches every 100 metres and you can rest and trek. You will hear high frequency sound of insects in some places. There is a Ganapati temple on top and a view post. You can see the whole of Jio area from there. Waiting to see the area during monsoon.

Very Nice waterfall in Mahape MIDC
15 Mins trek very good Atmosphere
Natural beauty close to mumbai
Free parking space

Very good and not much crowded. Great to visit during monsoon time. Family friendly.

Good place to visit in monsoon. The trek is easy and short but avoid on weekends as it's too much crowded.

Also you get easy Rick from ghansoli station but no buses as I know.

"Best place to visit during rainy season for trek with family and friends". "This is a beautiful place located nearby." "There are no food store so please .
Please don't carry plastic while visiting this place.

Beautiful view from top of the hill
And beautiful waterfall

If you want to do a small quick 1 hour trek within the city then this is a nice quick gateaway in Navi Mumbai. It starts with steps at the start and then there's a climb to the top towards the waterfall.

Best time to visit is during monsoon as there is a lot of greenery and the waterfall is active. You can trek in non-monsoon season also, just that there will be no waterfall. Also, the view from the top gives the landscape of the city and in the background is the beautiful looking sky and a sunset is the best to see here.

Since it is covered with trees it is relatively cooler in here.

There are no eateries around so do carry water and snacks along with you.

There's a parking space for 2 and 4 wheeler at the base but if there's a crowd then you will have to park to the opposite of the road.

Overall a wonderful experience and one that you can go with kids and beginners.

Best place for monsoon... Short Trek..Nice Waterfall..20km from Mumbai

A hidden paradise! My visit to GavliDev Waterfall & Bird Sanctuary was enchanting. The tranquil trails leading to the waterfall were a delight, and the lush surroundings added to the charm. The diverse birdlife was a treat for nature enthusiasts like me. The majestic waterfall left me in awe, and the natural pool was a perfect refresher. The staff's knowledge and passion added to the experience. This sanctuary is a must-visit if you're seeking serenity and a brush with nature's beauty. I can't wait to return!

Nice small waterfall with an easy climb. Great to visit in monsoon season. Route is easy and well marked with steps at places. You can climb on top as well. There's a well on the way to top.

Nice place and beautiful waterfall. Great place to visit in mansoon. 🌦

Good place for a small trek. view from the top is great. The waterfall is attractive for pictures but the force is low.

It's nice waterfall in Navi Mumbai.. Forest tracking and bird watching are additional attraction.. Must visit in monsoon period..

This is a natural waterfall unlike ones in Navi Mumbai that have been emerged out of illegal mining. There is a beautiful forest around and it's a safe waterfall. 700 m Trek and mostly guided path.

A very nice place and waterfall is small, but very good one..

U can spent a very good time with friends

Small place, feeling like good jungle safari and tracking

A Beautiful Experience to be yourself ✨ Just Chill

This is a wonderful place to visit and enjoy some time. The best time to visit this place is in Monsoon. You need to trek a good amount of height. You still get to see the waterfall now also. However, I feel in monsoons the trekking would be a bit difficult due to the route getting slippery. You get to see the beautiful scenery around.
