About Ponda – and why a self-drive Thar fits

Ponda is Goa's temple town and the gateway to its spice plantations and the Western Ghats. Major temples such as Shri Mangueshi and Shri Shantadurga are close by, along with spice farms, Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary and the road towards Mollem and Dudhsagar.

Ponda's attractions are spread across hilly inland roads. A Thar is ideal for spice-farm visits, temple circuits and the drive towards Mollem, with 4×4 confidence on rough patches during the monsoon.
