    A quick 5 km walk from Lonavala Lake to Duke’s Nose takes about 15 20 minutes, so you could fit it in before heading to Mumbai. The viewpoint is especially nice around sunset when the Ghats glow, and there’s a small parking area nearby. After you’re done, you could stop by the Elite Hotel for a quick coffee or a short break before you hit the highway again. TravelIndiaDeals may earn a commission if you book through this link.
