During the journey, the trek leader will introduce the itinerary and prepare participants for the exciting overnight adventure ahead.

Day 2 – Kalsubai Sunrise Trek

Upon reaching the base village, the trek leader will conduct a detailed briefing covering the route, safety guidelines, and important instructions before the trek begins. The adventure starts with an approximately three-hour ascent from Bari Village to the summit of Kalsubai Peak, the highest peak in Maharashtra, standing at an elevation of 1,646 metres (5,400 feet). The trail passes through scenic forests, open grasslands, rocky sections, and the famous iron ladders that make the climb both exciting and rewarding.

Reach the summit just in time to witness a breathtaking sunrise, as the first rays of sunlight illuminate the vast Sahyadri mountain ranges. Enjoy spectacular panoramic views stretching across Alang, Madan, Kulang, Ratangad, Harishchandragad, and the surrounding valleys. After spending time at the summit, enjoy a refreshing breakfast while soaking in the unforgettable scenery.

Begin the descent via the Indore Route, a picturesque trail that offers a different perspective of the mountain and surrounding landscapes. The descent takes approximately three hours, leading back to the base village through beautiful forest paths and open meadows.

After returning to the village, freshen up and enjoy a delicious home-cooked lunch before boarding the hired vehicle for the one-and-a-half-hour return journey to Kasara Railway Station. The adventure concludes with unforgettable memories of conquering Maharashtra's highest peak, witnessing a spectacular sunrise, and experiencing one of the most iconic treks in the Sahyadri mountains.
