I couldnt quite believe my eyes when I reached this beautiful lake. My friends and I were cycling around Powai and explored this beautiful lake. The lake is all the more appealing owing to it being present right in the middle of the concrete jungle!! Its the perfect getaway with the most soothing view 😁

Its more attractive place beautiful nature and fantastic ☺️

Not a good experience cause the lake was closed. Only could see a glimpse which was indeed beautiful 😍.

Best place to invest on yourself while there is so much peace. But stay careful as the area is well known for wild animals too

Mother Nature is very Beautiful. You can experience at there. My childhood memories always remember the water and greenery.

Awesome place for photo and scenery 😮☺️

Very beautiful place

Everywhere is greenery

Nice place

Peaceful place but the lake water is not so clean.

Place is good, but approach road is not very smooth to walk to get there. It’s ok for a 1 time visit.

Peaceful but not accessible by vehicle

Atmosphere , Awesome Peaceful Nature. 😘🤟🏻

This place is mind blowing but some people come there to drink but lakes other sides is good very few peoples go there because this lake is very big we can do trekking over there but dont go alone there go with friends or elders if anybody wants to photos pre wedding shoot they should go there.You can do fishing also visit at least ones .

Main entrance is somewhere else and for general people are not allowed to enter. Shahi Banguda is the one place is open right now.

Every Sunday I go this place lot of things you can do here .there are more than 200 crocodile 🐊 here .but till now no crocodile harm any human who are swimming in Lake .This lake was made by British before India independence , because of shortage of water 💦 supply in mumbai .Here entrances is illegal but many people come no one can stop you to go there there is no watch men nothing . Only notice that you are not allowed.Many people come in Sunday for swimming , fishing, trekking etc....Many people die here Because they dont know how to swim that was a reason ,But major people die in drunk ,any kind of nasha .Be careful if youre going ,Like it 👍👍

Beautiful place, not safe to go alone. Wear good shoes while going, if possible, take a local along since roads are very tricky.

Good place

Its an amazing place. Government should put strict restrictions to keep the people out of this area .

The place is totally surreal & untouched. One needs to go through jungle & village, not recommended to go alone. People have littered this place with beer bottles, gutka packets, ciggy buds. Requesting everyone to keep this place clean & hygiene.

Loved it

Lungs of Mumbai-No one can breath without nature.

Beauty place in mumbai

Great views of lake

Best lake .

Lake for voting and enjoyment

Nice place to hang around

Beauty of nature

This is very beautiful place. The lake is situated in the jungle area near powai. Scenery and greenery is very beautiful place. This is the amazing place in Mumbai. As the part of jungle the water is very good. No waste here and there, just clean calm and beauty everywhere. Lovely environment. How to reach there is question? and the partial area of the lake is prohibited for the visit but one can go from Nitie side... So please go through the way is allowed.

Vihar lake is located in sanjay Gandhi national park. It is such a beautiful place to visit and feel the beauty of this place. Lovely place for nature lovers and swimmers. Photographers will definitely love this place for wonderful opportunity for them. Love it.

Nice Place to chill but the water is too contaminated

I am a regular at here & went there with my wife eldest son & daughter in law last Thursday evening 16th August. As we have become to expect the food was amazing as usual. The staff are really friendly & efficient with out being over attentive. We wouldnt consider going to any other Indian restaurant whilst Jamal the owner is there.

Hidden beauty

This place is also called as bangoda.

It is a great and very beautiful place. Must visit

Live the nature!

Vihar Lake is located near Vihar village on the Mithi River within the precincts of the Borivali National Park, also called the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, in North Mumbai. When built in 1860 (construction started in 1856), it was considered as the largest lake in Mumbai in the Salsette group of islands. It is hemmed between the Tulsi Lake and the Powai Lake(shown in map). It partly meets the drinking water needs of the South Mumbai region.[1] It supplies only 3% of the Mumbai citys water requirement, after filtration at Bhandup where the large water filtration plant is located.The lake is located 32 km to the north of Mumbai by road.[5] The nearest suburban electric train station is Borivli East on the Western Railways and is close to western express highway, with a further travel of 6 km from the station by road to the lake.[6] The nearest Sahar International Airport is at a distance of about 20 km.[7] As the lake is located inside the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, entry permits are to be obtained from the park authorities for visit to the lake.

Situated in the middle of sanjay Gandhi national park this is the most beautiful place to be. Good for swimmers and photographers

Nice Quiet and Clean place

I and my friend Mithun visited this place in 2014 during our M.Sc days. For your information, IIT Bombay residence was not allowed to come from the shortcut path which we followed. Vihar lake has very fresh water. Please be careful if you do not know swimming- an IITian has lost his life here.

Its a mesmerizing and silent place. Though its not well maintained, its a gud place to roam around. Lake water is clean totally. U can have a look of iit from the edge. Security is also gud here. A gud place for couples to have a gala time
