Short event description

Two iconic Sahyadri landscapes. One unforgettable monsoon journey.

The Ghangad–Telbail Traverse takes Huppya Explorers through old fort-country, green ridges, misty plateaus and village trails that feel far removed from the city. It is a day of walking with purpose—learning how forts were placed in the landscape, how trails connect valleys and villages, and how a team moves safely through changing monsoon weather.

This is not a sightseeing trip. It is a real outdoor learning journey for young explorers ready to go beyond familiar paths.

Event excerpt
