Pelhar Lake lies in Pelhar village, 3 km away from Vajreshwari (57 km from Mumbai on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway). The waterfall over the wall of the dam offers a magnificent sight during rains. Encircled by the Tungareshwar range, the reservoir is very beautiful with lush green foliage.
There are hares, foxes and wild boars in the surrounding forest. An occasional leopard can also be spotted. Vajreshwari, Virar, Vasai and Tak-Mak Fort are some among the nearby attractions.
Mumbai International Airport and Vasai Railway Station serve this region.
