Amidst the mighty Sahyadris lies a scenic ghat named Malshej. Through the ghat runs a waterfall named Kalu. Falling down at 1200 feet, it charts its way on the rock in five patches. This December, we are rappelling alongside of this waterfall. 1200 feet, to be covered in five patches over two days with a night halt under the starry skies!
The journey begins on Friday night as the Breakfree Bus kicks off from Borivali at around 10pm. After a quick breakfast in the morning at the base village, we trek for an hour to reach the descending spot. The first day we rappell down about 650 feet and then set up camp on a wide plateau with the waterfall for company and beautiful views of the valley. A bonfire and some hot dinner later, we retire for the night looking at the thousands of stars twinkling overhead.
Sunday, day 2 dawns and a quick breakfast later, we begin our final descent in three patches and cover another 600 feet. It is noon by now but the adventure doesn't end here, at the nearby village awaits a delicious home cooked lunch for all of us! After a luxurious, well earned lunch we board the Breakfree Bus and head home feeling rejuvenated after spending time in the embrace of Mother Nature.
Things to carry:
To Keep Warm: A sheet and thermal wear or a jacket to keep yourself warm. It will be cold, so please come prepared.
