Anu and I signed up for this trek with Sahyadri Trekkers Foundation. They provide transportation but we drove in our own car. We start from Pune at 1.50 am on Sun, Feb 9, went through Wai, Panchgani, Mahabaleshwar to final reach a village called Dhawale. On the way we passed a village called Umrath where Tanaji Malusrare‘s was cremated after the battle of Sinhagadh.
We started at Dhawale and ended at Arthur’s seat in Mahabaleshwar.
We reached Arthur’s Seat at 11:15 am. Total: 3 hours, 45 mins of climbing time.
It was a great trek. We had our driver pick us up at around 11.30 and we drove home to reach by about 4 pm.
