Hello Hikers,

       We are glad to invite you for Trek to  Bhairavgad (Moroshi) on Sunday, 18th January 2015 so please be ready for climb-up and rappel down one more fort.
General Information:
Bhairavgad is a rigid pinnacle which can be seen while traveling through Malshej Ghat near Moroshi. This trek is excellent combination of trekking plus mild rock climbing which gives you idea of Sahyadri rocks. While ascending just before stiff wall there is one water cistern. Ultimate challenge of the trek is climbing of wall shown in above picture. There are two ways to climb this wall. One way is right side of the wall which is quite tough and is recently bolted by safe climbing initiative India. Other way to climb is from left side which goes through broken steps and gives thrill of rock climbing (We will follow this route).  After reaching top we get beautiful view of entire Malshej Ghat.

Trek to Maharashtra's Highest Peak on 04th Jan. 2015 with “The Youth Hikers”(Batch II)

Trek to Maharashtra's Highest Peak on 04th Jan. 2015 with “The Youth Hikers”(Batch II)


Hello Hikers,

We are glad to invite you for Trek to Maharashtra's Highest Peak on 04th Jan. 2015 (Batch II).

General Information:

Kalsubai temple is located at the topmost peak of Sahyadri mountain range of Maharastra. Being on the summit of Kalsubai is like your at the top of Maharashtra. Its dream place for every trekker in Maharashtra especially in Monsoon because of its divine view. The vastly spread out backwaters of Bhandardara attracts ones attention from the top. To the north of the mountain range forts such as Ramsej, Harihargad, Brahmagiri, Anjaneri, Ghargad, Bahula, Tringalwadi, Kavnai can be seen. To the east one can spot Aundha, Vishramgad, Bitangad, to the west Alang, Madangad, Kulang, Ratangad (south west) and to the south Pabargad, Ghanchakkar, Harishchandragad can be seen.

At the summit there is a plain ground with a small temple of Kalsubai, a local deity. The main route to the temple is at small climbing slope . It usually takes three hours to reach the top from Bari. Soon after leaving Bari, a small stream is crossed followed soon after by a Hanuman temple. The route from behind this temple takes the hiker straight to the summit. It's really adventurous trek with breath taking natural views at every step.



Grade: Easy
