Boratyachi Nal - Raigad Trek: 12-14 Feb



The steep gully descending from the Railing pathar into the Konkan, at Pane village near the foothills of fort Raigad is the very majestic Boratyachi Nal. We at Travelarks are going to undertake an exhilarating trek down this Nal on 12th Feb 2010. The route is a very enjoyable one with a couple of exposed traverses adding thrill to the entire experience. (Have a look at the pic here -->)
