Kondana caves are historical and protected by Archilogical Survey of India, as per board displayed at the site. One can reach from Mumbai either by own vehicle (as was done by us) or taking train/bus upto Karjat. Then take an autorickshaw (shared) to Kondivade village which is abt 10 km from Karjat. From the base village trekking starts on easy nod and journey can be covered from 40 to 60 minutes, depending upon the group and visitors. Trekk is so easy that it can be done by 6-7 years kids. However, should be avoided by old aged. No water or shade is available in the trekking way. Waterfall is limited to rainy season only, but Cave visit should be avoided during sunny afternoon. Since it is trekking only, 5 stars are given, even without any infrastructure.

A set of historic rock-cut caves about a 30 minute drive from The Homecoming the Kondana Caves are definitely a visit. From the near by town of Kondana the caves are an hour long trek which are situated at the base of a waterfall. There are several testaments to different styles of Buddhist architecture such as sculptures, viharas, chatiyas, and stupas
