Hi everyone,

I am planning a trek to Alang Madan Kulang, Maharashtra after the monsoon season.

I would like to know few information about this trek.

1. The taxi availability during mid-nights at Kasara railway station.
   How much usually the Jeep guys charge for a drop from Kasara to base village Ambewadi?
   Anyone has the driver's contact number ?  How long is the journey time ?

2. Guide service, how much it will cost for 2 nights (climbing equipment we have, food also we prepare).

3. Actually we have 2 nights 2.5 days for trek.
 Day1 (Sunday) early morning, we reach Ambewadi and start the trek.
 Which peak we can cover first, Alang,Madan or Kulang?
 Day1,its a Sunday, so we can expect other trekkers.
 
 Day1: Explore Kulang and camp, Day2: Cover Madan, then Alang and camp there. Day3:Early morning climb down Alang.  Reach Kasara by after noon. Will this plan workout?
 
4. I hope drinking water is available on top of all these 3 forts during October /November ?
   Firewood also available on all these peaks or very near by the peaks which we can collect easily?
   Or we have to carry gas stoves for cooking?

5. Any bus service available from Ambewadi to reach back Kasara/Ghoti?

I have read lot of blogs to get these information, but could not find much. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Krishna.

You're welcome! 
Unfortunately, I don't have contact details of any driver from the region but you can easily find the same by looking up blogs about the trek or calling up stores that have been listed in Mohari region on Google Maps. 
Cheers & keep trekking!

Thanks for the reply. In Rajgad-Torna-Raigad route, do we get any vehicles to cover some distance?
For eg Torna base to Mohari . Any driver's contact number do you have?]]> Tue, 02 Oct 2018 22:37:43 +0000 http://trekshitiz.com/discussionboard/34-days-trek-in-maharashtra_topic370_post658.html#658 <![CDATA[Trekking, Hiking, Rock Climbing equipments and gadgets : 3-4 days trek in Maharashtra]]> http://trekshitiz.com/discussionboard/34-days-trek-in-maharashtra_topic370_post657.html#657 Author: nomadosauras

Hi!
One can undertake a lot of range treks in the Sahyadri, tailoring them to suit the group's itinerary, fitness level and weather conditions.
You can find a few listed under the "Range Trek" topic in "Information" section of this forum.
I am listing a few more here:

1. LoBhi: Lonavla-Valvand-Kondheshwar temple-Dhangarwadi-Talpewadi-Kamaljai plateau-Bhimashankar-Khandas. Ideal for the time period you have mentioned and the trail passes through dense forests.

2. NaBhi: Naneghat-Jeevdhan-Amboli-Dhakoba-Durg-Durgawadi-Ahupe-Kondval-Bhimashankar-Khandas. This is one of the longest established treks that you'll come across in Sahyadri but ideally done in winter. 

3. Sinhgad-Rajgad-Torna-Raigad. This is one of the most popular treks amongst experienced trekkers looking for a 4/5 itinerary but again, ideally done in winters though you can find videos of trekkers who pulled it off during Monsoons, of course at great peril.

4. Salher-Salota-Mulher-Mora-Hargad-Nhavi-Mangi-Tungi. This is a range trek in the Baglan region. You can find plenty of blogs on this as well. 

Please note: I haven't done any of these except the Rajgad-Torna section of the third trek mentioned above but I would recommend not venturing for any of the above mentioned treks without a person extremely familiar with the terrain as whiteouts during monsoon and rarely used trails is a dreadful combination. Hiring a Vatadya/Guide is very important from safety point of view when traversing through dense forests. More experienced members of the forum might be able to help you with the finer details and contacts for accomodation/guides for the above treks.
Keep exploring and stay safe!

Trekking in Nepal is such a joy to the eye and to the heart. The country has a great deal of natural scenery mixed with diverse flora and fauna. Even the historical arts and architecture and the culture and tradition are ecstatic which facilitates the Tour in Nepal. Being born in this country with the world's highest peak, is a boon in itself.]]> Mon, 06 Nov 2017 13:37:17 +0000 http://trekshitiz.com/discussionboard/trekking-in-nepal-hiking-walking_topic296_post654.html#654 <![CDATA[Trekking, Hiking, Rock Climbing equipments and gadgets : Sinhagad-Rajgad-Torna-Raigad via BorotyachiNaal Ra]]> http://trekshitiz.com/discussionboard/sinhagadrajgadtornaraigad-via-borotyachinaal-ra_topic224_post653.html#653 Author: Yogesh
