The Dashabhuja Temple is a Hindu temple in Pune, in the Maharashtra state of India. This temple was once owned by Sardar Haripant Phadke, a Sardar of Peshwa and was later donated to the Peshwas as dowry. Dashabhuja Ganapati temple is visited by thousands of devotees every day and the number increases during Ganesh Chaturthi. The idol of Ganpati or Ganesh seen here has his elephant trunk resting on his right-hand side, which is supposed to be rarer and more sacred than other forms of the Ganesh idol.

The walk up to the Vetal Baba Mandir (temple) provides good views of the city but trees and the radio transmitter building obstruct the best views. The trail goes through scrub and forest maintained by local nature volunteers. There is a car park on Gokhalenagar Rd but if you start lower down from Kanchan Galli you will also pass the small temple Hanuman Mandir. There is also a chance of seeing wild Peacocks in the area.
An artificial lake, once a source of drinking water has become heavily silted and degraded by pollution. Efforts are underway to rectify these issues. This lake remains to be a bird watcher's spot due to the variety of birds found in the area.
