Subhedar Waterfall is located at the on route to Siddhagad fort. The route is fairly simple and easy to reach. The waterfall is big and very beautifully located inside the dense forests of Bhimashankar. The waterfall is known as Subhedar Falls. However there is one more in Karjat but it is a different and smaller one.
This waterfalls comes a little detour on the Siddhagad fort trekking route. Two wheelers can go upto a small village further inside (Rs20 parking) the main Uchale village which is on the main road. However 4 wheelers need to be parked at the main road or little inside (no charge). It takes around 30 to 40 mins walk from the Uchale village main road till the Subhedar waterfalls.
There are multiple ways to reach Subhedar, either from Narivali or from Uchale village. The route from Uchale village is shorter and more distinct. One can also see the Siddhagad, Gorakhgad and Ahupe ghat enroute. The walk is straight upto the Dhapadpada a small village after which there is a short 5 mins climb upto the plateau till the hut as shown in video. From the hut straight goes to the fort and a slight right goes to the falls. The Subhedar falls is visible from the village itself.
Uchale village is on the main road where ST bus and tumtums also arrives. There is a famous vadapav right at the entrance. Tuljha Bhavani vada pav center. He gives one of the tastiest vada pav along with his specially made chutney. One can also place order for home cooked non veg foods. His dishes are very spicy (zhanzhanit). If you want less please tell him before.The route goes right aside this vadapav center to the falls.
The waterfall is safe but during heavy rains the level of the water rises quickly. Also there is a small pond nearby the falls where local children jump to swim. However the pond is deep and should not be explored by non swimmers.
The local villagers are very friendly and they will guide you if you are facing any problem. The Tuljabhavani vada pav person is also very helpful and guide you.
