Shourya Sahyadri Adventure and Trekker's Team is excited to announce the Harishchandragad Trek for two Day’s on Saturday & Sunday, 28th & 29th December 2024.
Harishchandragad is a historical hill fort situated in Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra.
Two challenging routes are Makadnal (Monkey Valley) and Nalichi Vaat (Pass of the Gorge).
The Makadnal route involves trekking through dense forested valleys with rocky patches and steep inclines. It is called "Monkey Valley" due to the occasional sightings of monkeys and the challenging nature of the terrain. The trek requires careful navigation and is best suited for experienced trekkers. This route offers a serene and raw nature experience, with lush greenery and dramatic landscapes.
Nalichi Vaat is one of the toughest and most thrilling routes to Harishchandragad. The trek involves scaling steep rock walls, navigating through narrow gorges, and climbing exposed patches. The route follows a gorge created by a waterfall, and trekkers often encounter water streams, boulders, and slippery paths.
Both are highly technical trek. Both these routes reward trekkers with an exhilarating experience, making Harishchandragad a gem for adventure enthusiasts!
