We are all made to fly....






Kalsubai is the highest peak in Maharashtra in the Sahyadri range of mountains. ... We reached a small village at the base of the peak known as Bari Village where we parked our bikes at a local's home there and began the trek upwards on the Kalsubai.

The trek

Scaling Kalsubai has become something of a rite of passage for ardent trekkers. The trek is moderately difficult, passing through lush paddy fields, jungles, small streams, highlands and rocky terrains, and takes around 3-4 hours, with short intervals in between, to reach the crest of Kalsubai. The base village is Bari Village, which is nestled at the foothills of Kalsubai mountain. You need to reach the end of the village where you’ll find a small stream (which needs to be crossed), and a Hanuman temple. The route from the temple leads straight to the peak, and is well-marked so there is no risk of getting lost.



We are all made to fly
-- to realize our incredible potential as human beings. But instead of doing that, we sit on our branches, clinging to the things that are familiar to us. The possibilities are endless, but for most of us, they remain undiscovered. We conform to the familiar, the comfortable, the mundane. So for the most part, our lives are mediocre instead of exciting, thrilling and fulfilling.

So let us learn to destroy the branch of fear we cling to and free ourselves to the glory of flight !
Make it a great life!!
