Sandhan Valley Trek + Camping

Trek into the dusky gorges of a mysterious valley, through canyons carved by weather and water. You'll negotiate rocky terrain and narrow paths between rock surfaces, and wade through 4-6 feet deep pools of water. You'll do one session of rappelling down steep rocks to get to your campsite, and will enjoy a crackling bonfire after that. In the night, the twinkling stars take over the sky and you’ll sleep in cosy alpine tents.

NOTE: This is a strenuous trek and is suggested for trekkers with some experience but it can also be undertaken by very fit beginners.

Destination

The Sandhan Valley is surrounded by some of the tallest peaks and forts in the Sahyadris, such as Alang, Madan, Kulang, Ratangad, Ajoba and Kalsubai, although you won't be able to see much of them once you're inside the valley. The steep walls of the gorge keep the sun out, and you'll be trekking in the cool, dim valley for most of the day. Known to be one of the most difficult treks in the Sahyadris, this route through the Sandhan Valley starts from Samrad Village.

Destination highlights

Trek through a rugged canyon nestled in the Western Sahyadris. | Rappel down steep rocky formations to descend to your campsite. | Camp under a star-lit sky in alpine tents. | Challenge yourself to an arduous trek that tests your stamina and endurance.
