DURG & DHAKOBA trek near Junnar
On 20-08-2023 Sunday, we 3 friends decided to trek to a new place, that had never been visited by any one of us.
Tumblr media
The blog post is divided into 4 parts:
How did we go?
Time line.
Experience in photos & videos.
Expenses.
HOW DID WE GO?
Durg & Dhakoba are two separate places marked here on Google maps. They both can be trekked separately or together (as we did). It is type of a range trek, where the mountains connect the 2 places. Here the two places are on the top of the mountain and are connected by an undulating plateau.
Area: Junnar.
Base villages: Ambe for Durg & Amboli for Dhakoba. Villages near Ambe are Ambe Hatwij and Bhivade Khurd.
Since the base villages of Durg and Dhakoba are different and on opposite sides, the start and end points of our route is different. Thus the coming & going journey are different and trek route seems complicated.
Route: Kalyan - Malshej Ghat - Junnar - Ambe - Durg - Dhakoba - Darya Ghat - Amboli - Junnar - Banker Phata - Malshej Ghat - Ambernath.
Kalyan railway station - Kalyan ST bus depot - Bus going to Akola dropped us at Madh - tumtum or tempo ride from Madh to Junnar - Junnar ST bus depot - Bus to Sukal Wadhe - Alight from this bus going to Ingloon village at this point . The bus will go to Pimparwadi.
Now you are already on the top of the mountain once you alight from the bus. The steep ascent from Bhivade Khurd village was not needed to be climbed due to the bus journey.
TREK ROUTE: GPS route map is uploaded here on Wikiloc.
The shape of the GPS route is like a table. You start at one of th e legs and then cross the flatness, to reach the opposite leg of the table, because base villages of Durg and Dhakoba are separate and on opposite sides of each other.
Trailhead: Namdevwadi in AMBE village > Durga mandir - base of Durg - Dhakoba base - Dhakeshwar (Dhakoba) temple - Darya Ghat - Bhivade Budruk (trek ended) - Amboli.
Return route: Bus from Amboli to ST Junnar bus depot - jeep hired - to Bankar Phata - car hired - to Ambernath - rickshaw to Ambernath railway station - train - Dadar - home.
Grade: moderate to difficult, because of its length. Almost 14 km walk through the plateau on the mountain top, which has gentle uphills and downhills. The plateau was shrouded in clouds and visibility was low in the monsoon season. The descent from Darya Ghat to Amboli is steep and slippery, riddled with caves and waterfalls.
Guide is a must, as the forest is dense and covered in fog. The route is long. There are many trails, which may mislead the trekker. A villager knowing the path can be the best and safest company.
TIME LINE:
19-08-2023, Saturday.
Second-last train from Dadar to Kalyan.
Spend the night at Kalyan.
20-08-2023, Sunday.
05:00 Kalyan ST bus depot to Madh by Akola bus.
07:30 breakfast at Madh.
08:30 reach Junnar ST depot by tempo from Madh.
10:00 reach Ambe by bus to Sukal Wadhe near Inglun.
10:30 - trek starts from Ambe Hatwij/ Namdevwadi.
16:15 - trek ends near Amboli via Darya Ghat.
16:30 - ST bus from Amboli to Junnar.
17:15 reach Junnar ST bus depot.
17:45-18:00 - jeep drops us at Bankar Phata.
18:15-18:30 to 20:30 - car ride from Bankar Phata to Ambernath.
20:50 - train to Dadar from Ambernath.
23:00 home sweet home.

Tumblr media
India is rich in culture, diversity, food & offers various breathtaking destinations that you must visit at least once in a lifetime. From the snow capped Himalayan ranges in the north to lush green mountains complemented by beaches in the south and from dry and hot desert ranges in the west to areas that receive the highest rainfall in the east, there is a place for every traveler.
India offers a range of transport systems to travel these destinations - trains, buses, flights and of course the best of all - road trips as long as you have an International Driving Licence India (only required for non resident of India)
Leh Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir - A road trip to Leh is an adventure of a lifetime. This path offers breathtaking views of the Himalayan Mountain Ranges. This place is an absolute beauty for road trippers as you see magical blue lakes, rugged terrains and high mountain passes on your way. Here is a guide to help you plan your road trip.
Route: You can either take the Manali-Leh Highway which remains commutable from June to mid-October. This is a more challenging route because of high passes. The other route, that is, Srinagar-Leh highway offers great views of the Kashmir valley. It remains open during May to November and offers a milder ascent.
Permits: If you are a foreign national, you must make sure to have all the necessary permits like a Protected Area Permit.
Vehicle Preparation: It is important to ensure that the vehicle that you are renting is in a good condition as you will be covering rugged and remote terrains. You can carry spare tools, extra tires and fuel for sure. Fuel stations can be scarce so you must refill your tank wherever possible.

Spiti Valley, Himachal Pradesh - The best time to visit Spiti Valley is during the summer months, from July to September when the weather is relatively clear and pleasant.
Route: There are two primary routes to visit Spiti. Shimla - Manali route remains accessible between June to September and takes you through high mountain passes like Rohtang Pass.
Shimla to Spiti Valley - This route remains open from May to October and is less difficult as compared to the Shimla Manali route.

Route: One of the most common route is NH66 from Mumbai to Goa which offers stunning coastal views. Another route to reach Goa would be through navigating through the Western Ghats after taking NH66 till Amboli Ghats.
Distance and Travel Time: The distance between the two cities is approximately 550 kilometers, hence, the travel time remains between 8 to 12 hours on the road.
Permits: Contrary to traveling on the hills in the North, you only need an International driving license India and your vehicle documents with a car insurance in place.

One is bound to experience an absolute variety of cultures, landscapes, and weather experiences. This trip covers pretty much all the major cities in the country leaving you enriched with the diversity and culture in India.
Key Destinations - In addition to the snow covered mountains in Leh, you can indulge in some absolute treat to your taste buds by halting at Amritsar, Punjab.

Vehicle Preparation - You must ensure that the vehicle is in an excellent condition keeping the long distances that it has to cover. Carry spare tools and all the necessary identification documents.
Climate - The weather is going to vary as you move from snow covered mountains in the north to tropical beaches in the south, hence pack accordingly. Avoid traveling during the rainy season (June - September) to enjoy the beauty of these places. This is a long and challenging journey so you should be well prepared in terms of your travel itinerary and vehicle.
Overall, road trips in India are relaxing and full of adventures as they offer you a mix of weather, culture, food and a bag of memories to cherish.
