       Lets celebrate this Xmas amidst forest. This is gonna be a memorable event as it’s a completely different trek. Here we wont be hiking a fort or a pinnacle but what we are going to visit is 2 km long natural gorge formed by the force of flowing water.

It’s a kind of experience to walk through this 500 ft deep narrow gorge where in one has to tackle uneven rock patches, patches where in one has to cross water pools as deep as 4 ft.

Experincing the Boating through the Bhandardara Back Waters something one would not wish to miss.
