Quick Read
Trekking to the top of a mountain to catch the morning sun is one way to end 2025. If you’re looking to skip the city traffic on the last weekend of the year, you might want to join a trek to Kalsubai, the highest mountain peak in Maharashtra at 5400 feet.
“The Kalsubai trek is open to anyone, from beginners to parents with children. Participants get the chance to view the sunrise and cloud formation, which is especially prominent between November and January, from the peak,” trek leader Digvijay Rathore of organisers Mischief Treks reveals. Apart from the panoramic view of the Sahyadri range, you can glimpse the Harihar and Harishchandragad forts, amongst several other attractions in the vicinity.
