AMK - The Deadliest Trek of Maharashtra

Alang Madan Kulang (AMK) Trek is considered to be the most dangerous and toughest trek in Maharashtra.

PS: Don't try this in Monsoons (as I did).

Starting with Day 1, the plan is to start from the Ambewadi Village and head towards the Alang Fort. One can find the tall grasses, slippery rocks, dense forests throughout the way but the real challenge starts just before the top...One has to climb up 2 Steep rock patches (with the ropes) here for the Summit, testing 150% of your Mental and Physical strength.

Day 1 is not yet over...After climbing up and down the difficult patches of Alang fort and having the lunch at the Alang caves, it's time to head towards the most scariest climb of your life- 'Madan Fort'. The Scary Narrow stairs is not meant for the Weak Heart. And after that, the 3rd Climb of the 45ft. Rock patch takes you to the beautiful Madan fort for the Sunset wrapping up your day with self cooked dinner at the Madan Caves which gives you a certificate of the being called as a 'Rugged trekker'.

Good morning with the most beautiful Sunrise of Maharashtra. Day 2 starts with waking up at Madan Caves and self cooked breakfast. The day is for descending the Madan fort and head towards the Kulang fort.

The most scariest descend of my life it was. After the descend, the long path will dry you up (also the last day hangover). One has to climb up again the scariest steps of Kulang fort or people who can't climb more can stay on the base of Kulang.

As we all say, the best view comes after the hardest climb. If you miss this one, you'll be missing the most stunning views of Madan and Alang fort from the Kulang fort.
