Pashan lake is a manmade lake, built by bunding a small river (Ramnadi).
The river originates from Bavdhan and flows via Pashan, Sutarwadi, Baner to Someshwarwadi before flowing into the main Mula river.
The total catchment area is 40 square kilometres (15 sq mi).
Lake served as a source of water to old Pashan village, for growing crops all the year round and to nearby Governor's house.
Lake and its surrounding area attracts migratory birds and so is popular spot for bird watchers.
Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has constructed a 300-metre footpath called the nature trail alongside the lake.
It is constructed along the western shore of Pashan lake.
Also, PMC has built a bamboo plantation and wall alongside the lake to protect it and attract birds.
Within municipal limits of Pune city, Pashan has the maximum hill area of 5111.89 hectors (excluding 23 fringe villages).

The Baner - Pashan Biodiversity Park has also been proposed by the PMC.
The land of 200 hectors is owned by state government and runs along Baner Hill.
The hill has variable flat and dome shaped topography much of which is formed by rocky, strata with a small layer of soil.
