Khopoli is a pristine industrial town located in the Raigad District in Navi Mumbai. Khopoli is surrounded by the beautiful yet imposing Western Ghats mountains and the Patalganga River also runs through the town. Khopoli is not just an industrial hub but also a prominent tourist spot with attractions like the Zenith Waterfalls, Rajmachi Point and Duke’s Nose present here. Khopoli’s proximity to both Mumbai and Navi Mumbai has been the reason for rapid real estate development here, particularly after the Mumbai suburban railway network was expanded to cover this town.
The National Highway 4 runs through Khopoli and there are several apartment complexes here in addition to independent villas and houses. Khopoli is located around 71 kilometres away from South Mumbai and this can be accessed through the Mumbai-Pandharpur Road, Mumbai-Bangalore Highway and Mumbai-Pune Expressway. The Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport is located approximately 78 kilometres away from Khopoli while the Khopoli railway station is 750 metres away from the town. The Lowjee railway station is also 2.5 kilometres away from it. The Khopoli bus station and Khopoli City bus stand are major connectivity lifelines along with the Shil Phata bus stop.
