The most scenic lake road: Ratanwadi causeway
The most scenic lake road in Bhandardara — the road and causeway along the Ratanwadi backwaters, with the Sahyadri pinnacles ahead. Walk it slowly: water on one side, monsoon green on the other. Tip: early morning gives the calmest water and the clearest view of the pinnacles. Follow @theroamfold for more of the Bhandardara series. Every road, unfolded.
