Hidden gem of Nashik- trekking

Have you ever wondered what is the most unique and exciting thing to do in Nashik? Let me inform you about it, there are some amazing things to do in Nashik like eating missal, eating the infamous Nashik chivda but the most adventurous and unique thing is to go on early morning trek. There are a lot of places where you can trek in Nashik, however let me tell you about three most famous treks.

The Umbhrande waterfall

The Umbhrande waterfall is situated in Trimbakeshwar Gonde, BK. The Umbhrande waterfall is a wonderful place to visit when the monsoon is about to end or in mid-September. At the beginning of the trek, you will get to see the amazing sites of farmlands and a small stream of the waterfall. The waterfall is not a crowded place so you can enjoy it at the fullest.

Patta fort trek

The Patta fort trek is the place where the great Shivaji Maharaj rested during the Surat loot. It is located in Shivaji Nagar just outside Nashik. During the trek I would suggest you to look out for the monuments as they are a must see. This place is easy to trek even for children. This trek has some inclines and declines. The nature around is just fabulous but you must beware of the monkeys. Near the Patta fort are the magnificent windmills that you can visit early morning. You can even cycle near them!

Anjaneri reverse waterfall

The Anjaneri waterfall is filled with wonders. Between all the caves and greenery, the reverse waterfall stands to be the biggest attraction in the Anjaneri Trek! The fort of Anjaneri, being the birthplace of lord ‘Hanuman’, has a great historical importance! On the way from Anjaneri village to the Fort some carvings can be seen in the caves near the steps. Besides being intriguing and eye-catching, the caves and the inscriptions are believed to be from the Jain followers. The Anjaneri fort is an easy place to trek. The nature around is just heart-warming. In this trek you can enjoy lots of stuff.  

Do visit these astonishing, marvellous and supreme treks of Nashik!
