The nearest railway station is Malkapur on the Mumbai-Kolkata main line of the Central Railway.

Lonar ranks amongst the world's five largest craters and the third largest salt water lake in the world. Investigations reveal it to be around 50,000 years old. Lonar Crater is a huge bowl (roughly 7 kms in circumference and 1.6 kms in diameter) that has been carved out. Within the depression lies a saline lake. The crater was first discovered in the year 1823 by the British Officer, C.J.E. Alexander. The Lonar crater also finds mention in the ancient scripts like the Skanda Purana, Padma Purana and Ain-i-Akbari. During the days of Emperor Akbar, Lonar also housed a salt factory. There are a number of interesting places of tourist interest in and around the crater.

The small temple of Lord Vishnu and most others in the vicinity are constructed in the Hemadpanthi style i.e. without the use of cementing agents. While most in ruins and have been amended, only the ones that attract pilgrims have some resemblance to their original selves. Gomukh Temple, along the rim of the crater with a perennial stream is another interesting site. A fascinating sight is the presence of hundreds of peafowl which live inside the crater. The crater has potential as a bird sanctuary and one can also sight langoors, snakes, monitor lizard, mongoose, fox and deer.
