The Sahyadri range of mountains is an impressive hill range int he western parts of maharastra running north to south.
There are many peaks in these ranges with medium height, highest being 'kalsubai' peak. Many of the hills have been converted into Forts by Chatrpati Shivaji and later maratha rulers, some forts are even older. Many of the forts are in ruins, but still there is a lot to see and experience.
Trekking the forts and hills in the sahyadri's has a charm of its own.
Especially in the monsoons, its a place to die for, with lush greenery and pure waterfalls abundant in the hills.
The treks range from very simple to absolutely tough. These western ghats are accessible from major cities like mumbai, pune and nashik.
