Why Monsoon Treks with HTC ?
Monsoon Treks:
Unlike regular treks, monsoon treks require a lot of expertise and experience with terrain. Understanding the terrain well comes with experience. HTC has been leading monsoon treks since 2011, and all our trek leaders are well-trained.
Backend Team:
HTC boasts a strong backend team to assist our trek leaders, ensuring that every event goes according to plan.
Core Team:
All our monsoon treks are meticulously designed by our core team, which has over 15 years of experience navigating the Sahyadri Terrain.
Safety:
We understand that many newcomers may be attracted by lower prices. However, it’s essential to remember that the best monsoon trek must be completed safely. This safety comes at a cost, as you’re choosing a registered organization rather than just following a monsoon Instagram page.
Free Suggestion:
Choose wisely. Your safety is paramount, whether you join HTC trek or not. It’s crucial to conduct basic research about the company or Instagram page you’re considering.
Costing:
As per company standards & No discounts.

Rajmachi is one of the most scenic treks in the Sahyadris. Picturesquely located between Khandala and Lonavala, Rajmachi actually consists of two forts Shrivardhan and Manaranjan.
At the base of the Mountain is the serene Tungarli Lake surrounded by waterfalls while Kondhavi Caves can be found on top of the fort. There is a beautiful temple of Kal-Bhairavi between the twin forts. The view from top of the Fort is panoramic comprising Ulhās River, Duke’s Nose.
