What people say, in short
Karjat is recommended for short drives, riverside outings and waterfalls around the town. Two commenters describe the approach as mostly flat, while another says the green ghats made the drive itself enjoyable. One traveller describes an overnight visit combining a resort stay with a fort walk and a waterfall, but warns that the trek was slippery in the rain. The main road caveat comes from a commenter who encountered slow weekend traffic where the road meets the highway. Recommendations here are for the destination, not an endorsement of individual farmhouses.
