Andharban Jungle Trek is a wonderful experience for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers, offering a chance to explore the mystical beauty of a dense forest!

Monsoon season is the best time to experience this trek, as the forest comes alive with vibrant greenery, cascading waterfalls, and misty surroundings.

The trek begins from the village of Pimpri (Tal. Mulshi, Dist. Pune), the trail takes you through a deep and mysterious forest, providing an enchanting experience. The forest is primarily composed of thick foliage and towering trees that block most of the sunlight, creating a dark and surreal atmosphere. This is what gives the trek its name.

The trek route traverses through dense forests, deep valleys, streams, and waterfalls. It offers stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys, especially during the monsoon season when the entire region turns lush green.

The monsoon season, from June to September, is the best time to visit Andharban. The entire region is covered in lush greenery during this time, and the waterfalls are in full flow. However, trekking during other seasons is also possible, but the landscape might not be as vibrant.

The Andharban Jungle Trek during the monsoon season is a unique experience that offers a blend of adventure, natural beauty, and tranquillity. Whether you are a seasoned trekker or a nature lover looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, Andharban provides an unforgettable journey through one of Maharashtra’s most enchanting forests. So pack your bags, lace up your boots, and get ready to embark on this monsoon adventure!

we did it from other direction.. the trek in itself easy walk through dense forest, which people say was denser a while ago.. anyway, it still lives upto it’s name, अंधार-बन.. good walk in monsoon, in midst of valleys, water bodies and waterfalls.. the clouds add cherry on the top (people fond of time lapse will sure better understand this).. regarding the organisers, well managed, even if we had a small unexpected rough driving patch on the way in the morning, (गाडी चिखलात चढतच नव्हती)..
