My trip to Karjat Peth Fort

FABULASTIC thats how i'll describe this trip of mine.
Trust me guys i've never had so much of fun in any of my picnics as much as i had in this.It was an amazing place.
And guess what the overall expense for the entire trip was around 150 bucks so certainly its a good option for a cheap and exicting outing.

But a word of caution this place is to be visited only in rainy season and be prepared as the journey would be so exaustive, that by the end of the day u wont be left with energy even to walk, but yes the place is easy to trek so no special instruments will be rquired, neither its risky but certainly not for small children.


road to ambivali village


that's our tuk-tuk



This place is located south karjat some 28KM.
take a "tuk-tuk" from the station to ambivali village,he will charge you some 700 bucks.
From there start walking towards the peth village. Its mostly straight way with some minor tweaks which i cant even call trekking.




some of the best pics which i feel i have included here, i cant upload all i have some 300+ photos.

But here's a glimpse of the view that we get while going towards Peth village.




No the really part starts we have to climb a peak to reach the actual fort, to reach the base of the peak we have by now reached only peth village but our aim was to reach the highest point so we started our journey.


can u see that pinnacle we reached at the top of it.

This part was damn exausting but worth it just see the view that we had a chance to see.




this was the pic taken from highest position


Oops...!!! i almost forgot to tell er during our journey to peth village we even took a bath in a so callede water-fall.
But i must say it was no where close to being called as a water-fall but still w didnt miss even a single chance to do some "KAANDI"

MY GANG !!!

The ascend was bad and by the time we reached dadar station none of us was in a condition to even stand.
Legs where paining as if they have been amputed and exactly tabhi satish bola "GANPATI BAPPA MORYA, BHARAT MATA KI JAY JAWANO AGGE BADHO",so listening to him we started walking and finally at the end of the day everyone reached home safely.


I promise certainly i'll upload even the video taken from the hiighest position but make be sometime later.

Till then have agreat time...................................BYE

My trip to Matheran

Hi everyone ok this trip to matheran was my first excursion planned with my college friends.
The place is awesome its so beautiful that at the end of the day i wasn't feeling like to return home again.

You'll meet many people saying that matheran can't be explored in 1 day but trust me if your going with your friends your not interested in just seeing all spots for namesake enjoy the time you spend there its serene quiet completely surrounded by trees and mountains, and yes 1 day is fairly sufficient time.

I'll be writing mainly about how to plan the trip so that your not left in a situation like we were.

The average expense for our group of 10 people was around 300 bucks.

We caught the karjat local from dadar which leaves at 7:02am so we reached neral by 8:30
from there we got a cab which took us to matheran entrance the ride took around 30mins. if your trip is a 1 day one so better opt for this but in case if your planning to stay there then the toy train is a better option.


then what be ready to walk a lot you'll come across some great views and yes the most important thing please take care of your food there are a lot of monkeys to and dogs to create menace.
there's no trekking as such but then yes by the end of the day you will be exhausted like anything.
dont make it very late to return coz we made this mistake the last taxi one can get is around 9pm

there are very few street lights and also at come places there arent so it looks exciting but then its upto you to decide.


this is Charlotte lake


echo point

i have many photos but now its your turn to visit this place do comment about your experience have a great time.
