Taila Baila to Sudhagad Range trek

Taila Baila to Sudhagad :

Taila Baila to Sudhagad is a range trek. Sudhagad can be hiked via different routes. The most common of all being the one from Thakurwadi, Pali in Raigad district. There are other two routes which are considered to be more challenging. On our route we would be first descending into raigad region via Suvasini ghat starting from Taila Baila and then ascending towards Sudhagad via Maha Darwaja. This route is quite offbeat with most of the route being a jungle trek. We would also be crossing a river through huge rocks (boulders) similar to those found in sandhan valley.
