The peak will be very cold during monsoon and it will be very windy. You must carry a raincoat. There is greenery all around. It usually takes 3-4 hours to go up and another 3-4 hours to come down. There are many shops selling maggi and other snacks on the way. You must have a good experience before you trek here. It will be difficult for beginners.

Have a good treaking shoe.

Went trekking, and started climbing around 3 am, with a good spirit, a good healthy person who has previous experience trekking can reach the highest pic around 7 or 8 am, I will not recommend this trek for a first-timer because it needs good physical strength, as it involves lots of stairs and walking. The view is amazing once you reach up, completely worth your climbing efforts. No washrooms are available at the spot.

Wonderful experience,the view is mesmerizing and one can feel the nature. Satisfaction on reaching the point can never be explained in words one has to feel it. When the breeze kisses your face there you get to know what nature is all about. I would definitely recommend it to those who love exploring and trekking. Time taken almost 6 hrs (up and down) Carry water and food shoes if you are planning it in monsoon.

Trekking lover will enjoy a lot and the view from peak is surely mesmerizing.

Easy but needs high endurance to reach at top. 3 hours. Highest pick in Maharashtra. Stunning surrounding view of mountain ranges. Any season.

The trek was comparatively tougher than average due to its steepness but not too tough though. It takes around 3 hours to climb up and around 2 hours to come down. Overall the experience was amazing and also one gets the feeling of having climbed the highest peak in Maharashtra which feels great. It has a lot of stalls for food in between. Do expect rains and to get wet. Carry light which includes atleast 2 litres of water or some lemonade too and light snacks or chocolates. There were monkeys in the way too so make sure not to carry any edibles in your hands when the monkeys are around. They might come and snatch from you. Enjoy the beauty of nature and please do not litter, if possible pick up the waste others have thrown into your backpacks to make the way cleaner for others.

Beautiful 😍😍

Have you ever been to the Highest peak of Maharashtra? That's right. 📍 It's Kalsubai peak standing 5400 ft above sea level known for its altitude gain, steep ascend and a staircase to heaven. . It's been more than 3 years since I last visited this place and let me tell you it has changed a lot. I guess a lot of trekkers would relate to what I am about to say right now. - The routes have widened up. - Lots of new local shops have opened up. - New staircases and proper man-made steps have added up. - The rush to the top has increased by 10-15 times. BUT BUT BUT, I still got goosebumps while I was standing at the top of the mountain range. I could see each and every peak from that one particular point and I could feel that I am on top. I made it. I did it. I still got that adrenaline rush inside me. . I didn't take the normal route. I went on an exploration in the middle of the night, trying to take all the wrong routes and trying to reach the top. I eventually did with a few thorns in my hand, cut and bruises on my legs and pants, tshirt a bit torn but I was happy. I was in the zone. . The trek, the fireflies, the winds, droplets of rain, tent stay at the top, morning sunrise and if you have managed to read all this you would know that finally after 8 YEARS OF TREKKING IN MAHARASHTRA, I FINALLY SAW INDRAVAJRA. THE RARE PHENOMENON OF ALL THE PHENOMENON 🥺❤️. I FELT IN LOVE I still can't take it out of my head

How can someone ignore this place. Everest of Maharashtra. A great hike with medium level hardness. Stunning view with shivering weather conditions give a memorable experience here.

Excellent trake took 2.30 hr one side to trake if u are regular ...as photos and view watching takes time Air pressure on top can be vary dangerous so keep it in mind.. Rainy season is best for treak with slippery road cautions ..do not recommend heavy rain treaking Rails and steps ..grilled staircases are available on difficult positions so no need to worry.

Loved this place.. had amazing trekking experience, climate was awesome as we were in the clouds. It's an Everest of Maharashtra. To reach there one have to climb rock patch and iron stairs... but the experience is heavenly... the view from top is spectacular... must experience once...

Everest of Maharashtra Trek is of easy to medium range.. Can be done by anyone with general fitness

Beauty of Maharashtra. Yet people destroy its beauty by throwing waste during trek. It's a 3-4 hours trek from the base village. Advice - Start your trek at 4 AM and avoid weekends and public holidays. Toilets are available till 40 percent of the trail, which are provided by few local hotel shops up there. Safe to climb all seasons. Best season - post monsoon.

Best place.

It is the highest or one can say Everest of Maharashtra. One of my other favourite treks. It starts from Bari village and is about 6 kms which took me around 2.5 hours to climb. One can easily find many places to sit and have snacks. The route is really beautiful and scenic. It's the easiest trek. After reaching the top, you can view Sahyadri hills, Bhandara dam and Harishchandragad fort and many other peaks.

Kalsubai (Marathi: कळसूबाई शिखर) is a mountain in the Western Ghats, located in the Indian state of Maharashtra. Its summit situated at an elevation of 1646 metres (5400 feet) is the highest point in Maharashtra The mountain range lies within the Kalsubai Harishchandragad Wildlife Sanctuary. It is visited throughout the year by avid trekkers, Kalsubai temple devotees and wildlife enthusiasts alike

I visited in November 2022, and it was my 6th trek in Maharashtra. The winds at the peak were fast and chilly. We did a night trek, and it took us about 3-3:30 hours to reach the peak, just in time for the sunrise. The trek is quite manageable, but it requires endurance. It may not be suitable for first-timers, but those leading an active life can handle it. The stairs make the climb easier, but they are as long as climbing 6-8 floors. The view from the peak is absolutely incredible. Don't forget to try the pedhas available there for 25/- each and visit the temple. You can also enjoy a plate of poha, maggi, and garam garam bhajis for about 50-70/-. I look forward to visiting again in a different season someday :)

Mount everest of Maharashtara..

Everest of maharastra

Kalsubai Peak I recently visited Kalsubai Peak on 15th July 2023 with my wife and office colleagues. We had a great time trekking to the top and enjoying the stunning views of the surrounding area. The trek is about 6 kilometers long and takes about 4-5 hours to complete. It is a moderate difficulty trek, but there are some steep sections that can be challenging. The trail is well-maintained and there are plenty of places to stop for rest and refreshments along the way. The views from the top of Kalsubai Peak are simply amazing. You can see for miles in every direction. On a clear day, you can even see the Arabian Sea. We visited Kalsubai Peak in the monsoon season, so the weather was a bit wet and humid. However, the rain made the scenery even more beautiful. The lush green hills and waterfalls were breathtaking. Overall, we had a wonderful experience trekking to Kalsubai Peak. It is a challenging but rewarding hike that is sure to leave you with lasting memories. Here are some tips for your visit: Start your trek early in the morning to avoid the heat of the day. Bring plenty of water and snacks. Wear comfortable shoes with good traction. Be prepared for rain, especially if you are visiting during the monsoon season. Enjoy the views and take your time on the hike. I highly recommend visiting Kalsubai Peak if you are looking for an exciting and challenging hike with stunning views

This is highest peak in Maharashtra and the best time to visit is pre-monsoon(late May to early June weeks) or post monsoon to see the cloud beds[P.S. the crowd is also heaviest during this period] This is moderate to hard type of trek albeit the view from the top is SURREAL

Located around 150km from Mumbai , Kalsubai peak is a one day trek with moderate difficulty. Kalsubai is the Highest peak of Maharashtra, Aptly called Everest of Maharashtra.!! It’s a beautiful trek with lush greenery during monsoon . While driving from Mumbai take the first right turn once you reach Igatpuri, the 35km road via AMK mountain ranges is the most beautiful drive .. Must do drive and trek ..!!

The view from the highest peak of Maharashtra is just mind blowing. One should definitely definitely visit this place. I would recommend going on this trek only after the monsoon season or just before the monsoon season because during the monsoon the fog covers the view and its not worth the time. It will take around 3-4 hrs to reach the top the trek difficulty is moderate. Start trek early in the morning 3 or 4 am and avoid weekend its too crowded in weekends. If you are on a budget trip and planning for a night trek then you can follow my route Reach kasara station before 7:30 pm dinner options are available here. You will get bus to bari village for approx 70rs at 8 or 8:30 pm Or you can go by taxi if you are a group of 10 to 15 people for approx 100 to 200 rs per person Note :- at the top its extremely cold so pack your bags accordingly. The fog clears at around 7:30 am make sure you don't miss the cloud bed view which will be visible after a few hours.

Kalsubai (Marathi: कळसूबाई शिखर) is a mountain in the Western Ghats, located in the Indian state of Maharashtra. Its summit, situated at an elevation of 1,646 metres (5,400 ft), is the highest point in Maharashtra. The mountain range lies within the Kalsubai Harishchandragad Wildlife Sanctuary. It is visited throughout the year by avid trekkers, Kalsubai temple devotees and wildlife enthusiasts alike. It is named after one of the three sisters Kalsubai, Ratnabai and Katrabai. The other peak Ratangad is named after Ratnabai.The peak along with the adjoining hills spans along a downward-slanting east to the west axis eventually merging with the formidable escarpment of the Western Ghats at almost right angles. Along its length, they form a natural boundary demarcating the Igatpuri Taluka, Nashik district at its north from the Akole Taluka, Ahmednagar district at its south. The mountain itself lies on the Deccan Plateau, with its base at an elevation of 587 metres (1,926 ft) above mean sea level. The mountain along with adjoining hills forms an enormous catchment area for the Arthur Lake which it overlooks.The mountain can be viewed in its entirety from Bari village located on its eastern side, about six km (3.7 mi) from Bhandardara. It can be reached by road, via Igatpuri on the Mumbai-Nasik route.Trains leaving from Mumbai provide an alternate mode of transport to Kasara railway station, with connecting State Transport buses, plying on the Akole-Kasara route, leading up to the base village. Private vehicles from Kasara provide yet another alternative to public transport.Kalsubai is a 6.6 km-long (4.1 mi) trek with an elevation gain of around 2,700 feet (820 m). This is a one-day trek having a moderately hard difficulty level, with lush green landscapes and multiple waterfalls.[5] The peak attracts many trekkers and devotees determined to scale the mountain. To reach the summit there are well-designated trekking routes. The most popular route is through the eastern mountain face taking off from the base village Bari. The krushnavanti river, a tributary of Pravara, takes origin on its eastern slope and flows like a stream through the outer fringes of Bari. A short distance away from the stream a Hanuman temple has been built. This provides an important landmark to commence the trek as well as a resting post for those nearing the final lap of their trek. The route from behind this temple takes the hiker straight to the summit. The trek along this route is a mix of easy to ascend slopes as well as treacherous rocky outcrops overlooking the valley below. Considering the increasing footfall in recent years, the government has built iron ladders along the vertical hill slopes. These assist trekkers to allow for a convenient and safe ascent. The route via Indore is relatively unexplored as not many people are aware of it. Unlike the regular route via Bari, which has fixed ladders, cemented steps and several people flocking during the monsoon, the route via Indore is raw with stone steps and a huge iron chain for support at the dangerous patches.

Everest of maharashtra Lovely peak to climb Except summer all other months are best to visit Sunrise 🌅 & sunset 🌇 view cannot be found anywhere else, a beautiful view of bhandhara dam beautiful peak top kalsubai mandir On the way up, you'll find 4 ladders, each having a different difficulty level; the 3rd ladder is most difficult among all Carry good amounts of rehydration material and good trekking shoes, there are ample of hotels to provide water, little snacks, and fresh nimbu pani 💧

It's great place for endurance for trekking. It's having vertical climb since start of the trek. It's having 4 vertical ladders and one should be careful while climbing. Early sunrise view from the top is mesmerizing. One should reach early enough to see glory of sunrise. It's having cloud around the hill. One can view bhandara and Alang, Madan and Kulang fort from top. Have spend enough time to see sunrise view from top. Entire trek is safe except vertical ladders.

Must do trek for all type of trekkers. Mid to difficult level. You can take multiple halts if not used to trek as this trek route has lot of small halt-points where you can grab something to munch /meal /cold-hot beverages. One request- don't litter any plastic n keep the mountains clean !

It is highest peek in Maharashtra. Trek is medium to hard in difficulty. Trek is really best. We can see beautiful view around road. You can have some fast food on the way. You can have some small to medium waterfall on the way. And also some landscape full of blooming flowers on the way. This view is typically seen during September end to first half of October. Please avoid over daring as road is sleepery. Have a good treaking shoe.

Maharashtra's highest peak kalsubai Trekk. Easy level Trekk. It takes around 3-4 hours to reach peak from base village. There are enough space for parking at base village.

Heavenly experience. Sunrise here is just mesmerizing. It's not a difficult trek but rather I would say it's long and exhausting trek. Many shops are there selling water and tea even at 4 AM in morning, So don't carry excess water.

Kalsubai is also called as Everest of Maharashtra as its height is 1646 from sea level; best time for trekking is midnight we started our track at 12:30 and reached the peak @4:00 sunrise is like the best ever new visual to your eyesight. And the night time is like traveling to heaven 🙂. You can rent your personal ⛺ and have a talk with star which will definitely give you a new experience 😜. It is visited throughout the year by avid trekkers, Kalsubai temple devotees and wildlife enthusiasts alike. It is named after one of the three sisters Kalsubai, Ratnabai and Katrabai.

Mount Everest of maharashtra

Easy to climb 😅

Beautiful place

❤💯💯

(Translated by Google) The highest peak in Maharashtra. Everyone from five to six year olds to 65 year olds can come here (Original) महाराष्ट्रातील सर्वात उंच शिखर. अगदी वयाच्या पाच ते सहा वर्षाच्या मुलांपासून ते वयाच्या 65 वर्षाच्या वृद्धांपर्यंत सर्व सुदृढ व्यक्ती येथे येऊ शकतात

Breathtaking place. I didn't climb up but view from downhill also amazing.

Very peaceful on the top of the peak, no words to describe the beauty of nature from the top view.

If you are mountaineer if you really love tracking then kalau bai is highest peak of sahyadri in maharashtra.5000 meter at hight .after every 200 meter small tappari for tea break ,water or for snacks with proper sitting ,is there.at certain point even tents @1000/ night/ person available in which they provide maharashtrian food.we started at 11.15 am and were back by 9.30 pm.it was not really meant for me.though i have been to yamnautri in November 2020 paidal yatra.kalsubai was very difficult for me.i got frustrated in the last.my family managed to bring me down but will not suggest those are not very keen of tracking .at top kalsubai temple is there.bhandardhara full view from top and deep valley ,straight mountain confirms it's not easy to climb.last two hills were connected by iron ladder.which actually is angles of iron.

It was one of the best trek which I have done till now. Really beautiful scenes and you can experience the hight here. It was a long Lasting trek. For climbing it takes around 3-4 hours and to go down 2-3 hours. With kalasubai trek you can also do bhandaradra campaign. Climbing at first looks too hard but as you progress you will feel it easy. There is small space at the top. Take water bottles with you if you don't want to pay 50 rupees for 1 liter of water. Trek was awesome. Must visit. You can have very beautiful scene from the top.

Best place

Amazing experience. My first trek. Definitely exhausting for me. But to reach the top and capture the sunrise was amazing.

Kalsubai, highest peak of Maharashtra. Is the best experience one can have. Though the highest peak I would consider it as one of the moderate treks. It isn't much difficult. One needs good endurance to keep on trekking. If you fear heights please don't go to this trek. Regarding food and all as compared to other treks one can get many things to eat up there and even on the way. Best time to visit is anytime except days in summers. My time was rains. Views are just awesome. Be aware of ur belongings once u go up as the rate of wind flow is quite high and it took away spectacles of few of people there. Trek should definitely be done once atleast.

Lovely No words Best adventure tour

Fabulous experience for lifetime. highest peak in Sahyadri mountain range!

Kalsubai peak is the highest peak of Maharashtra with an altitude of 1646 m. The main highlight of the peak is the beautiful unmatched view of the sunrise which one should not miss. It takes 2-3 hrs for a trekker to reach the summit of Kalsubai. It is one of the most popular trekking spots among the trekkers in Sahyadris.

Feels like heaven for trekkers, thrilling sight from top. The view from the top is extremely amazing especially when you see other peaks on the side. Proper arrangements of water,snacks for the people at specific points in the region.

First night trek I've ever done. Visit on chilly night for perfect starry night and pink sunrise. Difficulty level is easy.

Great trek

Kalsubai Mountain lies in the Sahyadri mountain range falling under Kalsubai Harishchandragad Wildlife Sanctuary. Kalsubai Height being the highest peak, it commands a beautiful view. Since Bhandardara Dam and Kalsubai Peak is extremely famous, enough effort has been made to make this trek easy. There are steel railings, chains, and ladders at places where it is difficult to climb.

Nice place to visit

This is an easy trek and good for beginners. Considering highest point in Maharashtra, it does offer some pretty breathtaking view especially if you reach the peak to witness sunrise. Good for monsoon or winter trek.
