Bhorgiri To Bhimashankar Trek

The Bhorgiri to Bhimashankar Trek is a scenic adventure that begins in the small village of Bhorgiri, surrounded by hills and home to the Bhorgiri Fort and caves. This trek offers a delightful experience through dense jungle, ideal for nature lovers and photographers. During the monsoon season, the trek is particularly suited for beginners, nature enthusiasts, and photographers due to its lush surroundings and the opportunity to spot the state animal of Maharashtra, the Giant Squirrel (locally known as “Shekru”). The trek features a pleasant 3-hour jungle walk leading to “Gupta Bhimashankar,” with streams and waterfalls along the way before reaching the Bhimashankar Temple.
