Madkhol Dam

Madkhol Dam, Madkhol, Sawantwadi, Sindhudurg, Maharashtra 416510

Locals say that the upper part of the dam is crocodile-infested. A rare sight though. So no matter how tempting, do not take a dip there. The lower part of the Dam is where you can let yourself in the water. It is accessible by stairs to the other end of this Dam or a rocky patch from the right where this is shot.

How to reach

The dam is just outside of Sawantwadi approximately 7 km towards Amboli. As you park your car at the last accessible point, you will need to walk a distance by this amazing view of the lake up to the dam. It's a straight ridge kind of walk.
