Bhushi Dam

Bhushi Dam is an earth-fill dam located in the Lonavala region of Maharashtra, India. Built to provide water for irrigation and drinking, it also serves as a popular tourist spot, especially during the monsoon season. When the monsoon rains arrive, the dam's water level rises, and the spillway often overflows, creating cascading waterfalls that attract visitors. However, the area can become crowded and slippery during peak times, requiring caution. Designed primarily for water management, the dam plays a crucial role in local agriculture and water supply while offering scenic views that highlight its natural beauty.
