Naneghat Trek

Had been to this trek in the Malshej ghat region, to Naneghat. This ghat was extensively used in pre-British rule as a trade-route between the Deccan plateau and the Konkan Strip.

A special tax was also levied, and nane (Coins) were collected as tax, Any type of good was eligible as tax, from gold coins to cereals and grains.

Travelling Directions

  • Get to Kalyan Station

  • From there onwards there is a trail for about 2 – 2 1/2 hrs, the first hour being a very simple trail, with only the last hour or so turning into a climb …

Totally Enjoyable
