There's a temple of Durga Devi and a park. It's a really beautiful place. A single morning walk in this park can make you feel fresh. Due to well maintained trees and high density of trees the temperature here is soothing. The air is fresh and the whole atmosphere here is bound to make you feel better. There's also place for children to play. The park is open for morning walk from 05:00-09:00am.

Greenery in the middle of concrete jungles. Great place for your morning walks with greenery all around Lots of trees and well marked walkways.

Great place in the serenity of nature. Great place for strolling in nature. In the morning you can have a walk, run, yoga or workout. Place is blessed with a lake having swan goose, greylag goose and monkeys on the trees that surrounds the beautiful lake. And also gives the feel of mini jungle safari on winter mornings. There is also a temple of goddess Durga Devi accompanied by a sweet and pleasant stream of water which gives immense peace to tired mind. It is worth visiting. Do visit this place once, you'll visit again and again after.

Durga Tekadi is a scenic attraction to go for a walk or jog with friends and family! They have planted thousands of trees, creating a jungle-like ambiance with nice breezes and birds singing and tweeting... Find a quiet spot on the hill and unwind. It may be crowded between 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., so go between 5- 6 a.m. and enjoy the sunrise. Carry water bottles and snacks with you because there is nothing on the hill. There are numerous stalls for breakfast, snacks, drinks, sprouts, and fruits for exercise enthusiasts, however they are all located near the entrance near parking.

Best place for morning walk or evening strolls. The place is covered with lush green trees of all kinds. It only takes half an hour to walk the whole place. The place big enough to not look crowded even many are visiting at the same time. Best place to spend your lazy sundays. Come with a mat and the food and find a good spot and your day is sorted. Reading your favorite book while Basking in the sunshine which is trying really hard to pass through thick greenery is best way to spend weekend. I often visit this place for birdwatching.

Great place for morning walks. If you are lucky u might also see peacocks Roaming in. The hill is big enough to explore. There is a lot of plantation, jogging tracks and a temple inside. The only Bad thing is it closes till 12:00 noon and is open in morning only. Peaceful place. Benches, toys, gardens. Overall it's a good place to hang out in good weathers.

There is a temple, yoga place, children play area and many open spaces to explore and just soak in the oxygen. The view from top is good. I must say it is well maintained. Sufficient drinking water spots. Only concern is that the visitors have created mess around at lot of places. Though plastic bottles are not allowed inside, people still sneak that in and litter. Ticket- Adult ₹10, Child ₹5

A must visit spot for morning walks, experience good Sunrise and sunset. Trees, birds and walkways and roads are beautiful. We went a little late in the morning, so there was no crowd around. In the rainy season it's a blissful experience. Not sure we can carry food here as a picnic spot.

As usual your regular Durga tekdi of old... But now hardly there's social distancing and only less than 30% people's use mask properly.... Otherwise good place and now too much crowded on weekends. No parking available if you come late than 7 am and vegetables and small vendors have taken over road.. Makes difficult to navigate sedan cars if those comes up and down as it's single lane road

Beautiful and seren place.ideal for morning walks for all folks unfortunately there are some smart dummies who come with loud ear banging music playing in their cell phone. Sadly they Do not know how to enjoy the beautiful music of Nature..just being there. Yes it is bit over crowded and sad to see how big grown-up boys and girls play in park meant for children bellow age 12. People please enjoy and preserve our such beautiful gift of nature..it's our moral responsibility.

Covered with lush green trees, clean tracks for walking, running, jogging and a water reservoir with a variety of ducks and swans making the look entirely natural. This place has a Durga temple and a concrete platform to practice yoga. You can hear the chirping of birds too. Overall, a great place to energize and rejuvenate yourself.

Like the name suggest this is a Tekdi. Refere Tekdi in marathi as a small hill. It got it neme from Durga mata temple inside the premise. So Durga Tekdi. It opens at 5am in morning for public and is free entry in morning. Closes at 8am. There is a huge parking space available right outside the entrance. It's crowded you can say in weekends. You can walk, exercise or play in the garden area. Waking path is good in structure and it's really uphill. If you are not used for hilly walks then this place is not for you. Entire round can take upto an hour depending on speed but area is photogenic. You would love to take your time and walk appreciating the lush green gardens. Maintenance is of high standards. There is a big lake inside the Tekdi. This lake has many inhabitant ducks and sound of birds chirping is music to ears. At top you even see a water tank and a point called Ray band point. It has many gardens along the place and can by many people at the same time. However Less of social distancing at this time of Adminstration can be strict for mask atleast. People are seen without mask here. Just outside the entrance you would find all types of vegetables being sold. Also different types of healthy juice vendors are seen in the vicinity. This place is next to Appu ghar just for reference in case you need to plan your day accordingly.

Best place for family picnic, potluck, book reading. Amazing view of the surrounding is seen from the top. Also, few scenic view points are located herein. Crowded in the morning and evening as the joggers from vicinity come here daily. Few flaura & fauna species are here.

It takes almost 2 hours to walk around the place. You should visit during winter season for better experience. It's lush green, very spacious, has very clean and fresh air. Kids will definitely enjoy as there is Appu Ghar at the entrance. A perfect place to spend quality time with your family and friends.

Best place to have a good quality peaceful time with family, friends or loved ones..... Tickets are low and prohibition of any type of plastic on tekdi makes it a beautiful and clean place to visit..... 💯 Timings are flexible and good parking is in place. It has a beautiful Durga devi mandir from where true hike starts and beautiful views of city around the tekdi can be seen from the top with serene winds blowing all over the place.... This place is a mini paradise especially in rains....

The place is a very good spot for morning walks and jogs. The place is kinda huge and filled with lush green trees.

If you live in Pcmc area, you will know what Durga Tekdi is. For senior citizens it's a morning walk,jog place. A good amount of distance and elevations are available inside the park. For younger couples, it's a heaven. I hate to say this but durg Tekdi is a couple's destination since long back. There are total 3-4 levels. First level consists of a large lake, you can spot many ducks and other marine birds. Small patches of grass lands coupled in the form of park. From here a path to right direction takes you to the Durga devi temple. And one to left takes you to the second level. This level has a small park. Best place for kids to enjoy. A small open hall is developed here where people usually stop for meditation and other recreational activities like Yoga. Next level consists of circular walking track. From here the top level is accessible. From top most point you can see whole of nigdi. A peaceful place to sitback and relax. Ample parking space is available at the base. Die to Covid, this place is closed but open only during morning time, around 5am to 9am. And no ticket is needed during this duration.

Large park with very long walking trek with some steep inclinations. There are some view points at good height (Read lots of stairs) from where Pune City can be viewed till long. Quite greenery and large waterbody with waterbirds. Small park for kids below 12 though you may see some 40+ (in age) and 90+ (in weight) ladies trying the capacity of swings there. Small Durga temple inside as well. In rainy season, there is small water stream flowing through. Timing 06:00-09:00 free for joggers, 11:00-5:30 Rs 10 per adult and Rs 5 per kid. Eatables and water may Or may not be allowed based on how well you may speak and bargain.

It is located near appu ghar at pimpri Chinchwad. A must visit place if you like long walk and trek in nature.

It is maintained very well. Good for a refreshing morning walk. Pond with Spot-bulled Ducks is added attraction. Lots of trees makes ascend to top easy. Also many species of birds can be found.

A nice get-away close to the city, equipped with systematic parking, good security, clean toilets and water sources. It is a great place for a day with family, with shaded lawns for setting up picnic, and multiple play areas for kids. The thriving nature, a beautiful quarry lake, trees and greenery maintained by the administration makes it a good place for a hike, birdwatching and educational nature trails as well. Parking charges are Rs. 20. Entry fees is Rs. 10 per adult.

Lot's of greenery. Well maintained place. Entry fee for person 10 rupees and for children 5 rs. Pay and parking available for bikes 20 rs. You Can not carry plastic water bottles with you.

Very nice place! The view from the top is very good. The place is well maintained. I was surprised that in between all the residential areas, we have a hill. It has a play area for kids. Trails are curvy and with climbs making it a good choice for morning walks .

A great spot to spend time with friends and family! It features a kids' play area, a temple, benches, and even a charging point for those who want to work in a natural setting. Let's all contribute to its upkeep by avoiding littering, as the caretakers are doing an excellent job of maintaining it.

Great place with parking facility, fresh air, ample space. Only in Morning and evening for walk it's free and other time they have mentioned there is ticket of nominal price around ₹10/- per person(don't know exact).

An awesome morning experience to take at this place, a well maintained tekdi which provides you a small trek experience of 2kms one way and 82 mtrs of elevation... Good to pump in some heavy o2 inside and watch out for birds spectacular views

Wonderful place to visit with family for morning walk or day outing. 3-4 km track on hill having few steeps and turns...Lot of space and park for kids to play...usually open between 6-9 am in the morning for walkers. Then it again opens at 11 am and closes at 5:30 pm...Lot of space for car parking...Appughar is adjacent to it...

One of the best place in Pimpri-Chinchwad. Best in winter and rainy season. Note:- in covid situation you have RTPCR test.

Very refreshing place for morning and evening walkers and for those who want to sweat, for meditation, exercise. Steep turns helps to burn more calories..

There's a temple of Durga Devi and a park on the hills. Due well maintained trees and high density of trees the temperature here is soothing. There is also a children's playground. The park is open for morning walk from 05:00-09:00am and then opens in evening and ticket price is 10 rs after morning 9 AM

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this beautiful garden that left me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. The garden was immaculately maintained. The garden's layout was well-planned, with paths that wound through the different areas and provided a sense of exploration. Overall, I would highly recommend this garden to anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating escape. I left feeling refreshed and inspired.

**Nice place for morning walk and for one day family trip** This place has many trials for walking, jogging and hiking. It's lush green so you feel amidst nature while roaming here. You can also ops for off road hiking by taking any of the many trails present here. It's crowded during morning time. After your morning walk you can have snacks and take a sip of green tea outside the garden. You can also plan for a one day trip as it's has many shades where you can have food and play games. For kids there is a big playing area and kids would not get bored playing here. You can also visit Durga Mata Mandir. This temple is crowded during Navratri and many devotees come here to worship. In all a good place to visit for all age groups. Note: This is my personal experience and you may have a different experience.

Very good place for morning walks, exercise and yoga activities. People often visit here on mornings.

Durga tekdi is near appu ghar. You have to park your vehicle outside. 20rs was the entry fee and parking is huge as well as crowded. Food options are available outside the tekdi. Many scenic views you can enjoy .

Goddess Durga Mata temple is situated on this hill hence name is Durga Tekdi. Various activities like yoga and Morning Gym are done here. Very Peaceful place for morning walk. Being early will help you to find inner peace . Various bird species are seen here.

Absolutely good atmosphere.. Greenery and cleanness is maintained. Lots of fitness conscious people come here in morning for trail walk. Has many places where you can peacefully meditate, practice yoga, has open gym. Also it's absolutely safe and just on the outskirts of PCMC.

I go for a walk here every morning, since last 3 months. It's a great place in the morning with lots of surrounding trees and a great atmosphere. There is a lot of crowd here on weekends in the morning so watch out.

Durga Tekadi is indeed a picturesque location, offering a serene escape with its small hill and Durga Mata Mandir at top. The lush surroundings, adorned with diverse trees, create a tranquil ambiance. Maintained by PCMC Pune, the hill features a well-equipped playground for children, boasting various play areas to cater to their interests. Additionally, the open gym provides fitness enthusiasts with a great space to engage in physical activities such as weightlifting, cycling, and more. Facilities like toilets and drinking water further enhance the overall visitor experience, ensuring comfort for all. The inclusivity of amenities, such as the open gym, makes it an enjoyable destination for people of all ages. The nominal entry fee of Rs 10 per person makes it an affordable option for a day out with friends. However, it's essential to note that there might be a typographical error in the mention of "tresses," which seems likely to be "trees." Additionally, "Entry fee is 10Rs for one person" and "4wheeler parking chargee are 40Rs" could be clarified as "The entry fee is Rs 10 per person, and the parking charge for a four-wheeler is Rs 40." Overall, Durga Tekadi stands out as a beautiful and well-maintained place for a memorable time with friends and family.

Well maintained place for picnic and morning walk. No plastic policy is good, but on the other hand the guards let some people take plastic bottles etc. You may find young couples doing inappropriate things but looks like the guards are ok with that. There is no logical reason to why photography is not allowed.

The place ok to visit. Plastic is not allowed here. But many people take plastic bottles, chips packet etc.... Security and other very rubbish, they are not well trained. They allow some people to take water bottles while for some people they don't allow. Be aware of these illiterate security peoples.

The best place to go for a morning walk. Very old tekadi with a Duga mata mandir in it.. A big lake is there with lots of ducks in there. Total around 1.5 km or road to walk.. You can enjoy a beautiful sunrise from the top. There are many Yoga Centers to do yoga in a very fresh air..

It is a beautiful place to enjoy nature. It has a small lake inside. It is a place full of a beautiful variety of trees, a play area and clean toilets as well. It is the best option for a picnic spot. The entry fees for adult is 10rs and 5rs for a child. Overall it is a nice place to walk around nature and relax.
