White water rafting - Kundalika river

Hey Guys

This post is about Rafting – White water rafting on Kundalika river one of the adventures things you can do in Pune. This was second time for me, we went with V Adventure, and we give full marks to V-adventure and team Shankar the main guide, Amit, Ganpat for the experience. The rafting spot is new Vile village about 100Km, 2 hours drive from Pune, if it’s raining you can get to see lots of waterfalls and excellent scenery. It was a week day and we were the only group for rafting (good for us).The 12KM rafting path has 9-11 rapids I recall some of the names of some rapids are welcome to budhiya, pump house, crow nest, Jonnie walker, double fucker, morning headache, butterfly, fisher man. We clicked some excellent shots, especially those when our raft was in middle of Jonnie walker, sharing those wonderful moments through this Blog.


















This is Kayaking (Kayaking is the use of a kayak for moving across water)two kayakers Jai and Viru (that's what everyone was calling them) were with us for help.










This is the V-Adventure team with us Shankar, Amit and Ganpat. very nice people "Khatron Ke Khiladi"

Dhak - Thrilling experiance

Hey Guys

Dhak Bhiri - A very exciting trek near Kamshet on Mumbai highway. The place is very beautiful and dangerous. You need to walk for 2 hours to reach the rocks….. On the top there is a small mandir. Try this trek if you like adventures……It is closed during heavy rains so try this in winter season. If you visit the place during rainy season it’s very dangerous but beautiful lots of craps on the way….. They are always in a defensive mood (attack is best defense for them :) )
