Sandhan Valley Exploration & 30 Ft Rappelling on 1st Feb 2014

A trek that every individual should experience. Descend down huge rocks and boulders with the steep rock walls of the 2 kilometers long natural gorge towering around us, crossing a 4 feet deep water, a night stay on the rocky bed near a water pond under the open sky is a complete adventure package. The experience & the sheer magnitude of the steep walls is humbling to say the least. One of the favourite destination of trekkers and a beautiful place situated in the western ghats near Ghatghar is Sandhan Valley. One has to tappel down a 30 feet rock patch which adds adventure and thrill.
