One of the most unusual trek, Andharban trek is probably the only trek with a trail that is descending throughout. Andharban or the ‘dark forest’, the entire trail is through a dense forest surrounded by beautiful views of Devkund waterfall, Tamhini Ghat as well as Valley along the way.

 

Beginning at an elevation of approximately 2,160 feet on the Sahyadri mountain range, you need to descend through the valley in order to reach the backwaters of the Bhira Dam. An easy to Moderate trek, Andharban Jungle trek can be taken at any time of  the day. Due to the dense forests, the only caution you need to have during night trek is to have torches and flashlights with you.

 

The start point is about 200 meters away from the Pimpri village, at a spot called Independence point. The trail is clearly visible, however at night time there are bright chances to get lost in the way so it is advisable to to do this trek with a travellers group.

 

Running completely through dense jungles, it is far from human habitation and therefore carrying your supplies is a necessity. Offering view of lush green vegetation and fauna, the trek overall is one of the most refreshing of all the treks in Sahyadri.
