Started off from Mumbai at 7.00 A M on 30-12-2011 in my Maruti Sx4
Reading on ODO while starting from Anushakthinagar , Near Chembur, Mumbai-1937 Km
ODO Reading at First Toll Plaza on Mumbai-Pune Expressway - (Food Court) -- 2004 Kms
To go to Bhimashanker exit Mumbai-Pune expressway after the second toll plaza- Somatane-Pimpri-Chichwad
After the exit, after drive of 1 -2 kms naaka (Intersection) comes; Here take a sharp turn (U??_-reverse direction) Dehu Road
After 2 km turn towards Talegaon
Chakan entered -ODO reading 2076 kms
After Chakan turn left to enter Pune -Nashik Road
CNG got over at ODO reading 2144 km
Ran out of CNG at ODO 2144-1937 kms = 207 kms Approx -20 km per kg of Gas -
Bhimashnaker reached - ODO reading - 2180 kms
Reached Bhimashanker at 2:00 P M - Approx 6 hrs travel time; Beyond Talegaon I couldnt move more than 40-50 km per hour.
A small village with a few shops.. Almost NIL facilities for visitors, one must say. A few meters from the car parking area you have to climb down these steps to reach the temple.
This is the temple. Black stone. Architecturally similar to Nashik temple
Started back from Bhimashanker at 4:00 pm; Ghodegaon at 44km from Bhimashanker;
Lessons for next time:
