Bhandardara | Monsoon Escape Ep4 | Road That Disappears, Randha Falls to Konkan Kada | Speed400🌧️🏍️

Episode 4 of Monsoon Escape is the biggest ride of the series so far. Bhandardara 🏔️ Ride Record Date: 22 August 2026 After the short, unplanned ride to Mulshi in Episode 1, the rain-soaked, off-road chaos of Episode 2's Malshej ride, and the Hidden Sahyadri Escape of Episode 3, Episode 4 goes further and bigger — a full circuit through some of the most dramatic landscape the Sahyadris have to offer 🌧️ Left Wakad at 5:30 AM, stopped for a break at Banglore Cafe on the Pune-Nashik Highway, then straight to Randha Falls — a 170-foot drop into a gorge, one of the most photographed waterfalls in Maharashtra. From there, Arthur Lake viewpoint and the spillway gates — quiet, underrated stops most riders skip past. Then the soul moment of the ride 🛶 Amruteshwar Temple at Ratanwadi, a 1,200-year-old Shiva temple built without mortar, sitting quietly at the base of Ratangad Fort. Centuries of Hemadpanthi stone carving, still standing. And then the best part of the entire ride ⚡ Sandhan Valley viewpoint and its reverse waterfall — wind blowing the falling water straight back up. Got there via a proper offroad stretch, and the views from up there were something else entirely. Easily the most attractive, most adventurous moment of Episode 4. From Sandhan Valley to Konkan Kada, Ghatghar 🏔️ A vertical cliff dropping straight into the Konkan below, one of the quietest, most scenic stretches of road in the entire circuit. Closed the outbound stops at Lavhalwadi Well Point — a road that runs straight through a lake, water on both sides, completely unfilmed on any motovlog channel until now. Then the least glamorous part of any ride home — crawling through Chakan traffic — before wheels down in Wakad by 9 PM after a 5:30 AM start. Every mile, a new adventure. 🚀🏍️ ☕ Banglore Cafe, Pune-Nashik Highway — breakfast stop 🌊 Randha Falls, 170-ft gorge drop 🏞️ Arthur Lake viewpoint & spillway gates 🛶 1,200-year-old Amruteshwar Temple, Ratanwadi ⚡ Sandhan Valley viewpoint & reverse waterfall — offroad, best moment of the ride 🪨 Konkan Kada, Ghatghar — cliff edge 🌊 Lavhalwadi Well Point — the road through the lake 🚖 Chakan traffic on the way home — the honest, unglamorous part ⚠️ Long day, remote stretches, patchy network, offroad section ⏱️ Timeline 00:00 → #escape9to5 05:31 → Banglore Cafe, Pune-Nashik Highway 13:15 → Continue the Ride 14:51 → Randha Falls 20:38 → Arthur Lake viewpoint 22:03 → Bhandardara/Wilson Dam View 23:34 → Spillway gates 25:27 → Amruteshwar Temple, Ratanwadi 28:35 → Sandhan Valley & the reverse waterfall 31:23 → Konkan Kada, Ghatghar 32:52 → Lavhalwadi Well Point, the road through the lake 34:43 → Kalsubai Peak Entry 36:28 → Chakan traffic, Time to call it a day ▶️ Full Series Playlist Friendly Neighbourhood Rides | Triumph Speed 400 | 400–800 km rides around Pune    • Friendly Neighbourhood Rides   📍 Route: Wakad → Randha Waterfall → Arthur Lake viewpoint → Spillway gates → Amruteshwar Temple → Sandhan Valley viewpoint & reverse waterfall → Konkan Kada, Ghatghar → Lavhalwadi Well Point → Chakan traffic → Wakad 🗺️ Map: https://maps.app.goo.gl/8MwbPyUbeEHRw... 🎯 Highlights: Bhandardara | Randha Falls | Arthur Lake | Spillway gates | Amruteshwar Temple Ratanwadi | Sandhan Valley | reverse waterfall | offroad Sahyadri | Konkan Kada | Ghatghar | Lavhalwadi | Banglore Cafe Pune-Nashik Highway | Triumph Speed 400 touring | Monsoon Escape Ep 4 | Bhandardara monsoon ride | #escape9to5 🏍️ Bike: Triumph Speed 400 🎬 If this ride moved you — Like, Comment & Subscribe.
