Lonavala Bungee in Maharashtra

Lonavala Bungee

Extreme ⏱ Half Day ★ 4.4 (920) 📍 Lonavala, Maharashtra

About

Lonavala Bungee is the most accessible big jump in India — a 45 m crane-platform bungee tucked into the Sahyadri hills of Maharashtra, an easy weekend hit from both Mumbai and Pune. It's the smallest of India's three main bungee sites, which makes it the friendliest first jump for the nervous.

What makes it special:

  • A 45 m crane bungee at India's most accessible price point — the easiest "taste" jump in the country
  • Set among the green Sahyadri hills, a short hop from the Mumbai–Pune corridor
  • Combo passes with a giant swing for those who want a second hit of adrenaline

If Rishikesh's 83 m feels like too much for a first jump, this is the gentle way in — close to home and over in a weekend.

Getting There

The jump is at Lonavala, in the Sahyadri hills of Maharashtra, right off the Mumbai–Pune Expressway. It's about a 2–2.5 hour drive from Mumbai and roughly 2 hours from Pune; Lonavala also has its own railway station on the Mumbai–Pune line, a short taxi from the site.

It runs October to April — monsoon (June–September) shuts most Lonavala adventure operations down, while December–February brings the best weather. It pairs naturally with a Lonavala–Khandala weekend. Wear closed shoes and book ahead on peak weekends.

FAQs

How does this compare to Rishikesh and Goa? +
Smallest of the three (45m). Pure crane-platform — no scenic river or lake below. Strongest selling point is accessibility: 2 hours from Mumbai or Pune, easy weekend trip. Choose this if you want a taste, not the headline experience.
When's the best time to go? +
October to April. Lonavala monsoon (June–September) shuts down most adventure ops including bungee. December–February is peak — beautiful weather and dry safety conditions.
What are the limits and restrictions? +
Weight 40–110 kg. Age 12–60. Below 18 needs guardian consent. Same disqualifying medical conditions as any bungee operator (heart, BP, pregnancy, neck/back issues).
Is one jump enough? +
For most people, yes. ₹2,200 is the most accessible bungee price in India, so people occasionally do a second jump same day at a small discount. Combo passes with giant swing are also available.
How easy is it to get there from Mumbai? +
Drive 2–2.5 hours via Mumbai-Pune Expressway, exit at Lonavala. Train to Lonavala station from CST/Pune is also straightforward, then a 15-minute taxi to the site. Often combined with a Lonavala-Khandala weekend.
