Getting There
To reach Neelwan Pond, you’ll need to park your vehicle and embark on a 20-30 minute hike down the mountainside. While the trek can be challenging, especially for those unfamiliar with the terrain, the reward is well worth the effort. The moment you arrive, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped into another world, where the sights and sounds rejuvenate both mind and spirit.The Experience
The pristine waters of Neelwan Ponds are so clear that you can see fish swimming below the surface. The pond isn’t very deep, making it perfect for a refreshing dip.
The water of the pond actually flows from a hole inside the mountain which is a few steps above the ground but to see that, one has to climb up and that part is not very easy for everyone. It flows from there cascading down in a series of three natural pools connected with each other, before continuing its journey. This unique formation adds to the pond’s allure, making it a fascinating spot to explore and enjoy.
Activities and Amenities
Neelwan Pond is a popular spot for families and friends to gather for picnics and BBQs. The surrounding woods provide ample firewood, making it easy to cook meals and enjoy the outdoors. However, be sure to bring your own drinking water, as there are not good enough facilities nearby.
While the location is not particularly child-friendly due to the challenging hike, it can be a romantic retreat for couples looking for a picturesque backdrop for photoshoots. The natural beauty and tranquillity of Neelwan Pond make it an ideal spot for creating lasting memories.
Preservation and Accessibility
Neelwan Pond is a natural treasure that deserves our respect and care. Visitors are encouraged to keep the area clean and preserve its beauty for future generations. If the government were to invest in constructing a walking path and providing additional facilities, it would not only enhance the visitor experience but also provide economic opportunities for the local community
