Winter has arrived and brought the camping season along with it. Why not campout atop a secluded fort? Join us on a rendezvous in the cold at the northern most fort of Mumbai.
The trip begins with a rustic ride not far from the city. We’ll stroll across a farming village and let the scents welcome us to a rural life. We proceed to hike through a sleepy forest whose wilderness awakens our senses. Then, we adjust our sights and explore our route to the top of the hill as the forest wakes up with the passing light. At the top, we let the cool breeze carry away our sweat as we camp.
After burning calories, we treat ourselves to a nutritious meal, cooked on firewood - tribal style. Then, we spend the next hour exploring the fort ruins with the night wind whispering in our ears. Finally, we relax and enjoy a calm, cold night in the outdoors chilling with the oncoming winter.
About the location:
Distant yet near is a town called Palghar, it is on the northern side of Mumbai and is a convenient outdoor site from the hustle and bustle of routine Mumbai life. Villages here are closely associated with the lifestyle of Warli tribe and their well-known paintings. Few kilometres from Palghar is our spot of interest, a forest which is regarded as a blessing by nearby villages.
Forming a range, there are many mountains in this region covered with vegetation and wildlife. The forest is home to significant species of trees and plants that provide for the people and is a home to elusive animals including monkeys, reptiles, deers and a few more. This forest is a good example of a harmonious coexistence between man & nature.
This means the ease of climbing up to the summit is moderate, however, the duration of the trek is long. Participants must be mentally prepared to walk for a few hours.
Uphill is approx 2 hrs of trekking while downhill is shorter. There will be stops during the trek for rest and rehydration.
Moderate treks begin to present more of a challenge to first-time trekkers. So these treks are suitable for anyone looking for something a little more challenging and energetic. However, we believe that the best views come after the hardest climbs. The payoff is always equivalent to the effort.
At every summit, you are welcomed to the most majestic views & at the end of every trek, you learn that you are taking back home lifetime memories.
Grab a small to medium sized bag and pack the items from the Essentials list.
The lighter your bag is, the easier your trek will be.
You will be provided with a sleeping bag for this trip. Ensure to make room in your bag.
If you are short on space, we will assist you in attaching the sleeping bag onto your backpack.
