About Dukes Nose in Lonavala

One of the most popular attractions of Lonavala, Dukes Nose is a cliff that has beautiful views and a very interesting story attached to its name. Legend has it that the Duke of Wellington, who lived in the area back then, had a nose that resembled the shape of the cliff. The hooded shape of the cliff, which is nearly 800 foot tall, is also reminiscent of a cobra’s hood, thereby coaxing the locals to also call it by the moniker of Naagphani as well.

Dukes Nose point is not just a picturesque location, with gorgeous views of the Sahyadri Ranges in the Western Ghats, but is also a haven for trekking enthusiasts and for those who like rock climbing. There are plenty of Dukes Nose trek for novices as well as experts here, offering people a chance to commune with nature. The main trek starts from Khandala, and it takes nearly 14 hours to reach the top of the cliff, with a couple of stops in between to recharge your batteries. Even night treks are a very exciting possibility here, which starts from the base of the cliff and covers a little more than 7 kms. Other adventure activities at Dukes Nose include rappelling and ziplining, which are carried out by a handful of agents who offer secure services and great equipment on hire. The costs for Dukes Nose rappelling and ziplining vary from agent to agent, but the range is from INR 1200 to INR 2000 based on the activity.

It is also an ideal spot for picnics, and many locals and tourists spend hours here enjoying the view and the misty weather. There are also camping spots here, where people can spend a couple of nights enjoying their time away from the hustle bustle of life, in the lap of nature. It is a must visit spot for anybody visiting Lonavala, and should definitely be part of your itinerary.

    Nksvetri's 5 days trip to Lonavala

    Thank you, Travel Triangle, for yet another well-organized and memorable travel experience! Thanks to Kunwar Ujjwal of Travel Triangle for his exceptional support. As always, we had a fantastic experience with Travel Triangle and are extremely grateful for their safe and well-planned travel arrange
    ments. From the moment we booked our trip, the team ensured that every detail was meticulously handled, making our journey smooth and stress-free. The coordination between Kunwar Ujjwal and the service providers was seamless, ensuring that our trip was completely hassle-free and thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks to Travel Triangle, we had a truly memorable vacation, and we highly recommend their services to anyone in search of a trusted and reliable travel partner! We had an amazing experience with 'Back to Holidays', all thanks to Shreya, our travel service agent. From the very start, Shreya was incredibly helpful, professional, and attentive to every detail of our travel needs. She ensured that our trip to Matheran, Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar, and Pune was flawlessly planned and executed without a single hassle. Shreya was always available to answer our queries and provide valuable suggestions whenever needed. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction truly stood out. She went the extra mile to ensure we had a reliable and skilled driver, making our journey smooth and enjoyable. Thanks to Shreya of Back to Holidays, we had a stress-free and truly memorable vacation. We highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a well-organized and delightful travel experience. We had the pleasure of having Mr. Pawar as our cab driver arranged by Back to Holidays during this tour to Matheran, Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar, and Pune. His patience and professionalism were truly commendable. Despite the multiple destinations, he remained calm and accommodating throughout the journey. Mr. Pawar's driving skills are excellent, particularly on hilly terrains. He effortlessly navigated the steep slopes, ensuring a safe and comfortable ride for us. His expertise in using Google Maps to locate various places added to the convenience of our trip. Overall, we felt completely safe and well taken care of with Mr. Pawar. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled driver for their travels. Thank you, Mr. Pawar, for making our trip enjoyable and stress-free! Improvements that can be done: Back to Holidays can enhance their service by giving drivers clear itineraries to cover locations systematically based on customer preferences, whether historical sites, temples, viewpoints, or game zones. Additionally, sharing details like toy train timings, temple pooja schedules, and ticket information would help ensure a well-organized sightseeing experience from morning to evening. We had an amazing time exploring various destinations! Riding horseback to the viewpoints in Matheran was an unforgettable experience. At Lonavala, we enjoyed visiting the Ekvira Temple, Karla Caves, Bhaje Caves, Mapro Gardens, Bushi Dam and Narayani Dham Mandir. Mahabaleshwar was breathtaking with Lingmala Waterfall, Mahabaleshwar Temple, Needle View and other scenic points. The Mapro Gardens at Panchgani added a delightful touch to our trip. In Pune, the Ganpati Temple, Sinhagad Fort and Aga Khan Palace were memorable. It was truly a well-rounded and enjoyable journey! Thanks to all.

    Quality of hotels and food services needs to be improved. The same feedback was provided to the travel agent too as we found the washroom needs modifications and cleanliness can be improved a lot. The food provided did not have right quality which needs an improvement. The points of Mahabaleshwar wa
    s mesmerising however the hours provided by the travel agent could have been little more as we had to really hurry in certain points. However, overall services were good and on time.

    The trip and all the arrangements are good nothing issue on that part but the hotel you choose is not satisfactory. 1) No kitchen available 2) They insisted only for paid water bottles initially 3) Limited breakfast options available & quantity (means they are purchasing from outside & then prov
    ided to guests) Rest all is good. It was a memorable trip for all the guest. Tour manager SHREYA ji assist very well.
