6. The Road… still not motorable!!!!
Village at Peth with a population of around 800
carry everything they need on their head and
walk up this terrain almost daily !!!
7. No Doctor in the village…. Children beyond 5th
std daily
walk down and up this route for over an hour for school.
8. A look at the destination half way….
Clouds cover the sight of the peak…..
21. Was with us throughout our journey from Ambevali
22. A great place for first time trekkers. The journey from Ambevali
till Peth is easy and gives an exhilarating view from the top.
An appeal to all trekking enthusiasts to try this out. Our visit frequency
may get the village a much deserved road and better amenities!!!
