The best part of the trek is the camping opportunity provided by its alpine lakes \u2013 Tarsar, Marsar, and Sundarsar. Camping alongside the magnetic blue waters of these secluded, snow-fed lakes transports you to a world of blissful tranquility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be it a novice or expert trekker, nature lover or thrill-seeker, Rajmachi Fort trek is one such ‘perfect for all’ monsoon trek in India.<\/span><\/p>\n

The trekking trail to this historical fort nestled in the rugged Sahyadri ranges abounds with fort ruins, ancient caves, temples, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, valleys, etc. Explore the architecture of Rajmachi’s two strongholds, Shrivardhan and Manaranjan, and enjoy spectacular views of Konkan plains, backwaters of Shirota Dam, and the surrounding greenery that wears a breathtakingly fresh look post downpours.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hampta Pass Trek, Himachal Pradesh:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The beauty of this trekking trail lies in the dramatic change of scenery, from the refreshing greens of the Kullu valley’s verdant vegetation to the awe-inspiring ruggedness of Spiti valley’s raw terrain. Why is it counted among India\u2019s best monsoon treks, you ask? Well, it is because rains accentuate the landscape contrast that we were speaking about.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While Lahaul & Spiti lying in the rain shadow region receives scanty rainfall, the monsoon season brings Kullu’s pine forests, alpine meadows, streams, and waterfalls to life.

With a trail passing through serpentine jungles rich in flora and fauna and a hilltop temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, Mullayanagiri peak lures travelers seeking solace in the lap of nature. One of South India\u2019s best monsoon treks, Mullayanagiri is a part of the Bababudangiri mountain ranges of Chikmagalur district and is the highest peak in Karnataka.<\/span><\/p>\n

The trail includes some slippery patches and steep inclines, but the cool breeze keeps you going. Once you reach the summit, you are in for a treat! Lush Western Ghats leave you spellbound. Wait until the sun sets behind the mist-covered slopes of the mountains \u2013 the view is something that is going to stay fresh in your memory forever.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trek duration:<\/b> 2 days\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
