Itinerary description
This was a fantastic monsoon trek. It starts at Dhamanohol village which is at the western-most tip of Varasgaon dam. Last part of the road is in poor condition, hazardous to low clearance car. You see the watchtower at ghatmatha and have to walk towards it - but it is easy to get lost. Best if you can get a guides at Dhamanohol. Note that I started recording a bit later, and we lost a bit of way towards the end of the return walk to Dhamanohol
Lingya ghat goes down on the right side of the watch tower. Soon you get an amazing sight of the rock formation that looks like shivlinga, surrounding mountains and a pair of waterfalls. Continuing down the ghat, the trail traverses left and goes on to a plateau towards Kurdugad. On the way back, halfway, we turned upward using another trail called Nisanichi waat which reaches the top just at the watch tower.
Kurdugad is a small fort, which served as a watch tower in old days. Takes about an hour to climb and have a look around.
Total about 7-8 hour trip.
