A very peaceful and serene location and a good place for photography in nashik. The sunset and the sunrise is especially lovely here, so make sure to get your camera along. You can also visit at night/ evening (if they allow) to photograph a beautiful full moon and its reflection on the waters. Depending on the season, you will also find lots bird here for photography. I also suggest this spot for people wanting to have lunch (or any meal for that matter) outside for a change. What could be better than a scrumptious meal beside calm waters?

Holiday spot at Dam site...with lot of advantures & boat ride & many more...

A beautiful place to escape the the city chaos. The view is exceptional with rare combination of clean water, mountains and clear blue sky. Its a regular weekend spot for Nashik and nearby city people. But for outsiders its should be in must visit list. The place is managed by Maharashtra government.

Awesome dwelling place on weekends. Do visit during next half of day i.e 4pm onwards. MTDC is operating motor sports. Nice cafe and Sancks to grab on. Beauty of sunset. Everything is nice. Entry fee is also there. Well maintained

Murrum digging going on rapidly, habitat is getting destroyed. Very few bird species are seen nowadays. Plastic and beverage bottles thrown by visitors are mixed with drinking water.

It was a nice place to explore and visit. There are food vendors where you can enjoy the sunset with a variety of food and beverages. Boating and many water sports are also available. I visited the corona restrictions, so there were fewer people. Sunset is nice, but it's mostly crowded. If you visit early morning crowd will be less. The photography through DSLR and Mobile is allowed ✅️ Paid parking is there.

The place offers a amazing escape in Nashik tourism circuit. The place is important for enjoy nature's beauty and an important source of water for Nashik city. The dam can be viewed from various points around the waterbody, but the dam itself belongs to government body so is not accessible.

Very serene place to view sunset. They have recently started boating and other activities by MH tourism. Restaurant and boating , rides available, highly priced for boating. Entry fee is also there.

Must visit the MTDC Boat club. Entry Fee 70/-. Great ambience. On the water front. Cheap but good fresh snacks and food. Take a boat ride in the dam

It was not exactly at the dam but behind it where we found a small lake like area yo do swimming. Its a quiet place to just and focus within.

The Gangapur d is the most beautiful place I have seen till date. It is so soothinv and perfect to spend time here in the evenings during sunset.

One of the best destination for refresh at weekend outside nashik city. Just remember one thing do not ride any kind of Vihecle, bike, cycle etc on dam you may get fine

It is largest sand dam based at Nashik City

The location and view is just stunning! So calm & peaceful

Beautiful getaway from city life, visit between 4-7 p.m. to catch beautiful sunset, and preferably in monsoon. Backwaters here provide a cheerful mood.

Great atmosphere... Excellent place to spend time with family & friends 👌😊

Please don't go there. They charge Rs. 70 and Rs. 100 omjust for entry. It's not worth the entry fee. I don't think even Taj mahal or Qurub Minar has that much of an entry fee. Also there is nothing in there. Drive little bit ahead from its main gate and enjoy the view for free. Don't pay for nothing or these people will start charging for anything. The amenities are definitely not worth even 10 Rs. I highly dobt that its some corrupt politician charging exorbitant entry fee for nothing just to get rich. Don't fall for it. There are much better views for free of cost. Nature is not for sale. But if you give in to these greedy a*hope, I'm certain you will end up paying for the oxygen you breathe. So refrain from paying. Just drive and enjoy the view. Thus place isn't worth a single penny.

Nice place to visit if in Nashik. We visited this on the way back from Sula. During monsoon, water sports are not allowed. Otherwise very well maintained tourist place, also a cafeteria just next to the viewpoint is a plus point.

Nice dam Aisha first constructed earthen dam 1965 is open I like it near boat club aslo available for turist visit it

It's a well maintained Dam, nice place to spend time with family. Also can enjoy water sports activity. This Dam is taken care by MTDC, so it's nicely maintained. Must visit place in Nashik

The best tourist destination in Nashik, a quiet place to relax, on a holiday and being a short distance from Nashik, one can spend a good holiday, there are many hotels and restaurants on the way to the dam...
