Between the hills and the highway
Baner has a handy position. The Baner and Pashan hills are on one side, and the Mumbai–Bengaluru highway runs past on the other as Pune’s western bypass. That highway is what makes a tempo traveller on rent in Baner so convenient: it leads north to the Mumbai–Pune Expressway and south towards Satara.
Who travels with us from Baner
Baner and Balewadi have a lively mix of residents, and the bookings show it:
- Young professionals and friends’ groups planning weekend getaways from around Balewadi High Street.
- Families in the newer societies of Baner, Balewadi and Sus heading out for holidays or family functions.
- Sports teams and clubs travelling to and from events, given the Balewadi sports complex nearby.
North to Mumbai and Lonavala
For Lonavala, Khandala or Mumbai, the expressway is reached quickly via the Wakad side. A Pune to Mumbai tempo traveller from Baner avoids most of the city traffic that slows down trips from eastern Pune. It is also a sensible way to drop a group of relatives or colleagues at a Mumbai venue or hotel in one go.
South to Mahabaleshwar and Kaas
The same highway takes you south past Chandni Chowk towards Satara. Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani make a classic two-day trip, while the Kaas Plateau is a favourite after the monsoon when the wildflowers bloom. Our Pune to Satara and Kaas tempo traveller page has a suggested plan, and monsoon getaways near Pune lists more rainy-season ideas.
