SUMMARY:Mountaineers Association Dombivli trek to Rajgad and Torna Saturday\, January 17th 2026 - 17 January 2026
DESCRIPTION:Mountaineers Association Dombivli.\n\n\n\nThat looks like a challenging but rewarding trek! This flyer is for a combined trek to Rajgad and Torna\, two of the most iconic hill forts in Maharashtra\, organized by the Mountaineers Association Dombivli. \nHere are the details extracted from the flyer: \n\nTrek Overview\n\n\nDestinations: Rajgad Fort & Torna Fort \n\n\nBase Villages: Gunjavane / Velhe \n\n\nHeight: * Rajgad: 4\,514 ft \n\n\nTorna: 4\,603 ft \n\n\n\n\nType: Hill Fort \n\n\nDifficulty Grade: Difficult \n\n\n\nImportant Dates\n\n\nTrek Dates: Saturday\, January 17th & Sunday\, January 18th\, 2026 \n\n\nLast Date for Confirmation: January 11th\, 2026 \n\n\n\nCost & Inclusions\n\n\nTrek Cost: ₹2\,400 per person \n\n\nWhat’s Included: \n\n\nTransport from Dombivli to Velhe and back. \n\n\nVegetarian Meals: Breakfast (BF)\, Lunch\, and Dinner. \n\n\nExpertise charges. \n\n\nGuide\, Insurance\, First Aid\, and Equipment. \n\n\n\n\n\nContact Information\nTo register or ask questions\, you can contact: \n\n\nSatish Gaikwad: 9833195830 \n\n\nDilip Bhagat: 9820775354 \n\n\nBhushan: 9326308228 \n\n\n1. Itinerary & Sequence\nMost groups prefer starting with Rajgad because it offers better camping facilities (temples and plateaus) and then traversing the ridge to Torna on the second day. \n\n\nPickup from Dombivli: Usually occurs between 10:00 PM and 11:30 PM on Friday night (Jan 16th) to reach the base village by dawn. \n\n\nDay 1 (Saturday): \n\n\nReach Gunjavane/Pali (Base of Rajgad) around 4:30 AM – 5:30 AM. \n\n\nAscend Rajgad\, explore the massive Machis (Suvela\, Sanjeevani) and the Balekilla (highest point). \n\n\nStay: Overnight camping on Rajgad Fort or in the village between the two forts. \n\n\n\n\nDay 2 (Sunday): \n\n\nEarly morning start for the Rajgad-Torna Ridge. This is a long\, 5–7 hour walk. \n\n\nReach Torna\, explore the Budhla Machi and Zunjar Machi. \n\n\nDescend to Velhe village by late afternoon. \n\n\nBoard the bus to return to Dombivli (typically reaching by 10:00 PM – 11:00 PM). \n\n\n\n\n\n2. Fitness & Gear\nThe “Difficult” grade isn’t about rock climbing\, but rather endurance. You will be walking roughly 15–18 km over two days with significant elevation changes. \n\n\nFitness Requirement: You should be comfortable walking for 6+ hours with a backpack. If you haven’t exercised recently\, try some stair climbing or long walks this week to prep your legs. \n\n\nHighly Recommended Gear: \n\n\nTrekking Poles: Highly recommended. They reduce the impact on your knees by nearly 25%\, which is crucial for the steep descent from Torna. \n\n\nShoes: Do not wear flat sneakers. You need trekking shoes with deep “lugs” (grooves) for grip on the scree (loose rocks). \n\n\nTorch/Headlamp: Mandatory for the early morning start. \n\n\n\n\n\n3. Packing List (Overnight & Winter)\nSince you are trekking in mid-January\, the temperature on the fort can drop to 10°C or lower at night. \n\n\nFor the Cold: \n\n\nA lightweight fleece jacket or a down jacket. \n\n\nWoolen cap (Beanie): Crucial\, as most body heat is lost through the head. \n\n\nA thin pair of thermals (can be used as pajamas). \n\n\n\n\nFor the Stay: \n\n\nSleeping Bag or Mat + 2 Heavy Bedsheets: Check if the organizers are providing tents/mats. If not\, a sleeping bag is your best friend. \n\n\nPersonal Hygiene: Small towel\, wet wipes (water is scarce on top)\, and sanitizer. \n\n\n\n\nFood & Water: \n\n\nWater: At least 3 liters (carry a hydration bladder or 2-3 bottles). \n\n\nEnergy: Glucose/ORS packets\, dates\, nuts\, and energy bars for the ridge walk.
