Hallo Friends,
Welcome to Aquarius Peak Adventure.
"Aquarius Peak Adventure" have arranged Trek to Kalsubai Peak on 31st August 2013
Brief Introduction about Kalsubai:
Region: Igatpuri
Fort Height: 5400 ft.
Type: Hill
Grade: Easy
District: Ahmednagar
Kalsubai Peak (Marathi: कळसूबाईशिखर) is the highest peak (1646 meters) of the Sahyadris in Akola Taluka, of Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra.
Kalsubai temple is located at the top most peak of Sahyadri mountain range of Maharashtra. To reach the summit there are various trekking routes and animal tracks. The main route starts from the village of Bari which is about six km from Bhandardara.
The main route to the temple is at small climbing slope. It usually takes three hours to reach the top from Bari. Soon after leaving Bari, a small stream is crossed followed soon after by a Hanuman temple. The route from behind this temple takes the hiker straight to the summit. There are three iron ladders along this route. There is a well near the last iron ladder as one approaches the top but the water is not potable during the summer. The rest of the route is without water, so it is best to fill water bottles in Bari. It is an easy hike, but parts of it are quite steep in places. 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, Harishchandragad can be seen. (Source-WiKi)
