Perched amidst the backdrop of hilly terrains and lush green environs, the Bushy Dam is one of the majestic spots of Lonavla. A masonry dam on the Indrayani River, the dam was built as a source of water for the Great Indian Peninsular Railway. In 2014, Indian Railways announced plans to further develop the barrage as a tourist spot in collaboration with the private sector. Monsoons are the best time to visit the dam when water gushes out from it and makes for a breathtaking cascade. While swimming is not allowed owing to the unpredictability of the water flow, it is surely a scenic attraction in the hill town, and provides travellers with great photo ops.
