Where the Sahyadri foothills meet city-scale living — Forest Trails, Bhugaon
2 BHK · Price on Request
Paranjape Forest Trails The Highlands is the high-rise quarter of one of Pune's most considered integrated townships — a 170-acre expanse opposite Manas Lake in Bhugaon where 90 percent of the land is given over to open space, water bodies, and a living forest of more than 10,000 trees. Eleven towers of B+G+17 floors rise from a 7.72-acre precinct, delivering 873 homes to residents who share the full scale of Forest Trails as their backyard.
The Highlands derives its identity from the landscape that frames it: the Sahyadri ridgeline to the west, Manas Lake to the east, and the canopy trails and meandering walkways of the township between. Mornings here are measured by birdsong and filtered light through the tree line rather than traffic noise — a quality of daily life that Pune's western suburbs, just 13 km from the city centre, are uniquely positioned to offer.
Paranjape Schemes Construction Ltd., founded in 1987 by Shrikant and Shashank Paranjape, has delivered over 200 projects across nine cities and seven countries, covering more than 20 million sq ft of built space. The Forest Trails township itself earned the Best Residential Project honour at the CNBC Awaaz Real Estate Awards in 2015, and the Blue Ridge township in Hinjewadi won the Best Township Project of India at the NDTV Property Awards the same year — two landmarks that reflect the scale and consistency of the developer's township-building capability.
Each apartment in The Highlands is planned for zero-waste utilisation of carpet area — a design discipline that expresses itself in rational room proportions, usable balcony depths, and the elimination of dead corridors. The specifications include RCC frame construction, vitrified tile flooring, granite kitchen platforms, video door phones, solar water heating, and DG power backup, composing a home that is ready to live in rather than retrofit.
Bhugaon is accelerating: Paud Road is widened, the Vanaz–Chandani Chowk metro extension is under active construction, and Paranjape has continued to invest in the precinct with projects such as The Cove, The Rivolo, Misty Greens, and now the new-launch phase of The Highlands. For those who want to be part of a mature, forest-scale address while it is still growing, this is the moment.

Opposite Manas Lake, Paud Road, Bhugaon, Pune – 412115 · Bhugaon · Pune
Bhugaon sits on the western edge of Pune, flanked by the Sahyadri hills and bordered by Bavdhan, Kothrud, and the Mulshi corridor. The locality is stitched to the city by NH-753F (Paud Road), which has been widened to 180 ft, making Kothrud reachable in under ten minutes and the Mumbai–Pune Expressway accessible within a short drive. Vanaz Metro Station on Pune's operational Aqua Line lies roughly 6 km away, while the Cabinet-approved Chandani Chowk extension of the same line — with construction now underway — will place a metro terminus even closer to Bhugaon's doorstep.
Paranjape Forest Trails The Highlands occupies a singular address opposite Manas Lake, within the 170-acre Forest Trails integrated township. The position delivers both immediate natural amenity — the lake, forested ridgelines, and 90-percent open space within the township — and practical urban access, with Lohia Jain IT Park roughly 4 km away, SNBP and Ryan International School within 3 km, and Aditya Shagun Mall around 5 km from the site. Shivajinagar railway station is approximately 7 km by road, and Pune International Airport is about 22 km via Paud Road.

Cabinet-approved and now under active construction, this 1.5 km elevated corridor adds a Chandani Chowk terminus that brings metro access within practical reach of Bhugaon, directly serving Paud Road commuters.
Completed widening of NH-753F to a 180-ft carriageway has eliminated chronic bottlenecks between Bhugaon and Kothrud, reducing peak-hour travel times and raising land values along the corridor.
The 23.33 km elevated Line 3 connecting Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park in Hinjewadi via Balewadi to Civil Court will dramatically improve access between Bhugaon's workforce and Pune's largest IT employment node.
Under Pune Metro Phase-2 planning, Chandani Chowk is designated as an intercity bus integration point for services from Mumbai and Bengaluru, creating a multi-modal transit anchor 3 km from Forest Trails.
Ongoing civic works extending and resurfacing Mulshi Road through Bhugaon, alongside new traffic signals and road widening at key junctions, are systematically improving last-mile connectivity around the township.
The Highlands is not a standalone tower block — it is the high-rise precinct of Forest Trails, a 170-acre integrated township with over 10,000 trees, natural trails, water bodies, and 90% open space. No comparable forest-scale environment exists this close to central Pune.
Registered under MahaRERA number P52100000067 and developed by Paranjape Schemes — founded 1987, with over 200 completed projects and 30,000+ homes delivered — The Highlands carries the legal and reputational certainty that first-time and repeat buyers both require.
Construction is underway on the Vanaz–Chandani Chowk metro extension, with Chandani Chowk designated as a future intermodal hub. When complete, residents of Bhugaon will have metro access without travelling to Vanaz, compressing commute times to Kothrud, Deccan, and beyond.
Each apartment is designed so that 100% of the carpet area — 668 to 675 sq ft — is usable living space with no dead corridors or unusable corners, a rarity in the high-density Pune residential market.
The project's clubhouse, The Cliff, anchors a full amenities deck: swimming pool, kids pool, gymnasium, cricket pitch, squash court, tennis court, amphitheatre, party lawn, and indoor games facilities — all sized for a township of nearly 900 homes.
Paranjape Forest Trails is the most appreciated project in Bhugaon by year-on-year price movement, reflecting the sustained demand for township living in a locality that is gaining road width, metro access, and commercial density simultaneously.
