Kalsubai Expedition

Thanks to my friend Amit, Devendra, Karishma, Joel, and Stacey, who made to the Kalsubai Summit. At the summit is a small temple of Kalsubai, which can seat just three people. This being the highest peak (1646 meters) in Maharashtra, it commands a beautiful 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 Pabhargad, Ghanchakkar, Harishchandragadcan be seen.

Since Kalsubai is extremely famous, enough effort has been made to make this trek easy. There are steel railings, chains and ladders at places where it is difficult to climb.

Kudos to the group.
