Katraj to Sinhagad Night Trek

One of the most popular treks in the Sahyadri's and specially amongst the Punekar's is the Katraj Sinhagad Moonlight Trek. This trek starts from the hill above the old Katraj tunnel and an approximatately 20kms of walking in the terrain consisting of around 14 hills takes you to Sinhagad. 

I was eying this trek for quite some time. Got a chance to fulfill my desire last saturday on a 'Super-Moon' night. We started at 23:30 form the old tunnel and it took us 8hrs of continous walking to complete the trek. Though tiresome the trek was a wonderful experience. The splendid views of Pune city from top and the amazing company of the fellow trekkers was icing on the cake.

Enjoy the photos.

Sinhagad fort in monsoon

Sinhagad is a well known fort near Pune. It is one of the highest fort in Maharashtra and is rich in history and natural beauty. It is heaven especially in monsoons. I have been there many times before but every time I visit the place there is something new to offer. This time I visited the fort along with few friends. We got a bus from swargate and reached the base of the fort, from there we took a jeep to the top. Let the photographs speak the rest.
