At least once you shall visit this beautiful waterfall …. it’s difficult & hence intact from the nature sopilers …
I started trekking in ~1988 with my first trek to Dhak Cha Bhairi .. & since then did many treks …. but today’s experience of being into the huge waterfall with Zero visibility was awesome.. I will say it was the best ever .. best than the view of Kalavantin durg .. of course nothing is beyond the best Kokan Kada view 🙂 but …
This time the waterfall was the biggest I saw it over last 5 years … it was raining heavily through out the trek & the waterfall was at its best size !! I was not so sure of entering into the caves .. however when you are with (Mahesh Mahajan & Mandar Tharval (FONA founders) you should be sure of safety … literally the waterfall was so huge that me & my wife were just stopped before the caves … we were not able to see anything but just water all around … visibility was at its best !!! but then finally with help of FONA team (Yuvraj, Nilesh, Abhay, Vikas, Rounak, Suyog , Miss Vidya) … we finally reached the destination caves … where the roar of water just threatens you giving the straight warning ! not to play with it …
Obviously the photograph quality is not so good …since it is a 2 MP mobile capture … but u know it at least gives an idea …
Instructions Again 🙂
1) This time we took Mosquito repellent cream with us, which obviously washed away many times by the heavy rains 🙂 but proved to be extremely useful
2) Do not use the mobile earphones to listen songs etc. while trekking .. it is extremely dangerous, you may not listen to stone falling call or any important instruction / call be the leader.
3) You must have proper trekking gears !! each trek we repeat this instruction and still people come with wearing slippers !! or sandles !! mind it ? this is serious trek .. you have to remember that you are playing with your own life. Do buy proper trekking shoes (my favorite model is “Trekking” shoes from Action)
4) Do wear full attire, no half pants/shirts ! this avoid bites from insects as well as protects you from creating any body scratches.
5) & I think not to provide any stupid instructions like do not take any alcohol ! since I haven’t seen a trekker doing that !! (till now)
6) we used mini-bus to go to the nearest point so that walking will be less !! unfortunately the transporter sent 50 seater BUS (!) for return journey & it got stuck for an hour !!!! so do not repeat this mistake, if u want to avoid some walking, use smaller jeeps or SUV’s !
