1.Kalsubai Hike (Midnight Pickup)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 17 reviews · 9 hours · from $87Our pick

Leave Mumbai around midnight for Kalsubai, Maharashtra’s highest peak. An English-speaking guide leads an early-morning climb from Bari, with torches and hiking poles available to borrow. The outing includes breakfast, lunch, refreshments, and summit time; guide Krishna has led some groups, though the guide may vary.

“My second trip with Darkgreen Adventures, but first hiking trip! I was really wanting to get out of the city to hike but the logistics were causing hesitation, especially not being from Mumbai. DGA took care of everything! Pick-up/drop-off was so easy. The hike was great and it was nice to have a group of hikers to go with, especially at night. Sunrise was beautiful! Krishna was kind and knowledgeable. I was really able to just relax and enjoy the climb. I usually don’t go on group hikes and prefer to plan my own, but I have to say, this was totally worth it and I’ll definitely go again.”
