History:

The inscriptions in the caves at the top indicate that they are the work of Satavahana rulers who came into prominence after the fall of the Mauryan Empire. It is believed that a powerful woman ruler Naganika, the wife of Satakarni (180–170 BCE) of the Satavahana family commissioned the cave, the statues and the inscriptions. Inscriptions in the cave mention her and her family members. Though the statues adorning the sides of the rectangular cave are now gone, the inscriptions still record some of the achievements of the dynasty. The Naneghat records have proved very important in establishing the history of the region. Vedic Gods like Yama (Hinduism) Indra, Chandra and Surya are mentioned here. The mention of Samkarsana and Vasudeva indicate the prevalence of Bhagavata form of Hinduism in the Satavahana dynasty. (Source: Wikipedia)
This route once was an ancient trade route which was extensively used to transport goods arriving at Junnar. The locals are still found using this pass to reach Konkan. This pass once served as a vital trade route between Kalyan and Junnar.

Don’t Miss the annual Geminis Meteor Showers which are happening on these dates.
Local Food, Tented accommodation and Starry night… The perfect Weekend Gateway.

Don’t miss to capture the beautiful moments of star gazing at Naneghat. Book a trip now and experience fun and adventure like never before. Also lake side camping at Naneghat would be really adventurous. It is a perfect option for a one day outing near Mumbai. Lakeside Camping cost would be 2200/-
