History & Heritage
Originally known as Sydney Point, Lodwick Point was renamed in honour of General Peter Lodwick, one of the first British officers to climb the Mahabaleshwar hills in 1824. To commemorate his achievement, his son erected a 25-foot memorial column at the viewpoint, which remains one of its most recognizable landmarks today.
