Description
Nestled between the impressive Sahyadri hills, Khopoli is a small industrial city in Raigad district, but is also part of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
Khopoli is poised to become an important rock-climbing destination given the large number of crags surrounding it within 5 km radius, its proximity to Lonavala, the busiest hill resort in Maharashtra, and its vantage location almost exactly between Mumbai and Pune, just off the Expressway.
Currently it has 2-3 crags for sport routes (all single-pitch), and bouldering areas, developed with support from Applied Petzl. Khopoli can be done as a day trip from Mumbai or Pune. The coming years may see significant development including possibly short multi-pitch routes
