Another long weekend is not far. But It is really difficult to find the most suitable place at this time. It would be rainy at most of the places. Hills must not be preferred, neither the places where rain will make the environment humid.
Though we believe that if you accept the rain and soak yourself in the water, you would amaze your with the charm of Rains.
Valley of Flowers, Kaas Plateau (Maharashtra):Located in Satara district on a distance of 22kms from Satara city. The Kaas plateau is famous for it’s wild flowers which bloom during August-September. The entire journey from Satara to the Kaas plateau is beautiful. The best time to visit is after the 2 weeks when rainy season is over.

Jaipur (Rajasthan): The Pink city’s colourful, chaotic streets ebb and flow with a heady brew of old and new. At the city’s heart, the City Palace continues to house the former royal family; the Jantar Mantar, the royal observatory, maintains a heavenly aspect; and the honeycomb Hawa Mahal gazes on the bazaar below. And just out of sight, in the arid hill country surrounding the city, is the fairy-tale grandeur of Amber Fort. Nahargarh fort would be most enjoyable in this season.

Matheran (Maharashtra): Untouched, unspoiled and unbelievably tranquil, this popular tourist hill-station in Maharashtra is a great getaway destination. Just 2 hrs from Mumbai, it is one of the most unpolluted cities in the region, especially since no vehicles are allowed inside its limits. Unique look-out points provide some breathtaking views of the hills and valleys of the surrounding Sahyadri Range.
Udaipur (Rajasthan): Udaipur is referred to as the “Venice of the East,” the “Most Romantic City of India” and the “Kashmir of Rajasthan”. Tourists flock to this enchanting city in the heart of the Aravalli Hills, which has three interconnected lakes: Fateh Sagar Lake, Lake Pichhola and the smaller Swaroop Sagar Lake. With its forts, palaces, temples, gardens, mountains and narrow lanes lined with stalls in the medieval historic center, Udaipur is a living memory of a heroic past with valor and chivalry.
Allow yourself a few days to enjoy the tranquility of boat rides on the lake, the bustle of its ancient bazaars, its lively arts scene, the quaint old-world feel of its better hotels, its scattering of genuinely good restaurants, its endless tempting shops and some lovely countryside to explore on wheels, feet or horseback.
It is just 5-6 hours journey to the city of lakes. Nature would be at it’s best at this time in the lake city, in addition, room rates would be dirt cheap at the moment in Udaipur.
Diu: A relaxed and very less populated Portuguese colony, Diu is famous for its historic forts, churches and Hindu Temples and sea food. Garnished with beautiful and secluded beaches, Diu also offers a variety of water sports to the adventurers.
Mount Abu (Rajasthan): Mount Abu is the oasis in the deserted land of Rajasthan.

Only hill station of Rajasthan is situated on Aravali and is not quite high, so it would be the best choice of the season.
Pachmarhi (Madhya Pradesh): Better known as “Satpura ki Rani”, this hill station also contains three wildlife conservation units, namely, Satpura National Park, Bori Sanctuary and Pachmarhi (Panchmadi) Sanctuary. A lot of caves and waterfalls populate this scenic locale which is a break from the northern hill stations due to its eroded and broken down mountains that are not too high, and replete with thick green foliage. Get high on nature in these environs and lose yourself in a placid ecstasy unique to Panchmarhi.

Saputara (Gujarat): Overlooking a lush green valley, this unpretentious destination is a good place to unwind, go trekking or take leisurely hill walks. Blessed with exhilarating natural beauty, the town has verdant forests, gorgeous waterfalls and a plethora of lush gardens. It has a special mythological significance, for it was one of the abodes of Lord Rama during his 14 year exile in the thick forests of this hill station. The hamlet has a unique deity of a serpent on the banks of the River Sarpaganga which is worshiped by the locals and is a splendid site.
Mahabaleshwar (Maharashtra): Surrounded by soaring peaks and picturesque valleys, it is truly heaven on earth. A perfect trekking destination, it takes days to completely unravel the various mysteries of this hill station. The famous Panchaganga Temple in Old town is an important pilgrimage site, said to be the origin of River Krishna and four other rivers. The Mahabaleswar Temple is famous for the swayambhu lingam of Lord Shiva. Needle Hole Point, Arthur’s Seat, Sunrise Point, Kate’s Point, 3 Monkey Point and Venna Lake are some of the popular attractions here.
Kumbhalgarh and Chittorgarh (Rajasthan): A small village in Rajasthan, Kumbhalgarh is known world over for housing the second largest wall after the Great Wall of China. Here, the mighty Kumbhalgarh Fort, is a popular excursion spot from Udaipur. This structure of magnificence is located in the middle of the desert and is an example of intricate stone sculptures. Also worth seeing is the Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary.
Perched atop a wide hill, the sprawling fort of Chittorgarh is a testimony to the grandeur of Indian architecture. Built over centuries by various rulers and known far and wide for the beauty of Queen Padmini, this fort was ravaged by Allahudin Khilji and his armies and now stands in ruins. Drive through the fort and experience the lost grandeur of erstwhile emperors and the beauty of the dry landscapes of Rajasthan.
Lonavala (Maharashtra): Nestled in the lap of the Sahyadri Hills, Lonavala offers scenic views of the Deccan Plateau on one side and the Konkan coast on the other. It is widely famous for the sweet candy, Chikki.
Lonavala is during the monsoon as this is the time when the hills are shrouded in mist, filling the air with romance. Once there, you can go further to Duke’s Nose, and also up till Ajanta and Ellora.
Goa: Not our choice, but yes people really want to travel to Goa every time they see a chance to Goa. The party capital of India, this little paradise on earth is a package full of surprises and contradictions. Apart from happening beaches and nigh clubs in both north and south districts, Goa has a number of unexplored beaches, obscure caves and other secrets spots waiting to be explored. Other highlights of Goa include its rich Portuguese history, amazing seafood and the friendly and vivacious locals.
Yet all these destinations would see rainfall, but these would neither be on a huge height nor quite hot at this time. You would get good rates for all these destinations at this time.
