Distance of temple: It is 25 kms from Pune station and 18 kms from Hadapsar.How to reach temple: Best way to reach temple is by own vehicle (2 wheeler or 4 wheeler).There are no direct buses till temple.One can hire a car . After crossing Loni toll naka in few minutes one can see small bridge after crossing it take immediate right turn and proceed towards village and then take a right turn from chowk and travel 6-7 kms to reach temple…Road condition is pathetic.

Place to eat: There are 2 restaurants near parking where one can have breakfast and lunch . Wadaoav,Misal pav and Bhel in Breakfast and Maharashtrian thali in Lunch . Food is average quality. Alternatively one can pack food and eat in the premises of temple.

Ramdara temple is not visible from distance as it is surrounded by hills . The Temple standing on the Lake was dedicated to Lord Shiva and has a Huge Nandi at the entrance; however the beautiful idols of of Lord Rama,Sita mata and Shri Laxmana as well as that of shri Dattatreya in inner shrine make this place more divine. The Shiva Linga was craved and installed by Dhundi Baba himself and in it is embedded the sacred souvenirs he had kept from his days as a wandering monk visiting the 12 Jyotirlingas and Manosaravar in Tibet . There are also idols and sculptures of different God,Goddes and saints beautifully carved on the walls. There is also ashram of Shri Devipuri Maharaj beside main temple. ,Temple is surrounded by beautiful Lake, Coconut and palm trees all around. Lotus flowers and Ducks can be seen in Lake .

There is a walkway around Lake and one can see lots of birds. There is a huge tree (Umbar tree) at the start of the walkway (near Arch) which is home to many small birds . The location of temple along with abundance of trees in the vicinity makes this place serene and beautiful. Best location for photography and videography.one can spare few hours at this place for inner peace and complete satisfaction of my mind.TripoGet App
