Trek to Naneghat

Today it was proved that we as parents always underestimate our kids. We worry too much about them all the time and hence hesitate to let them explore things thinking it might not be safe for them. Unless we dont give them a chance, we will never know their true potential. This time we decided to Trek to Naneghat, also known as "Nanacha Angtha" (Nana’s Thumb). It is actually a mountain pass in the Western Ghats range near Junnar in Pune district of Maharashtra. Knowing this will be a longer and much tougher trek (about 2750 ft high) as compared to those we have done before, I was skeptical if the kids could climb all the way up and down. Let me tell you, I was wrong. On the contrary I was totally thrilled looking at the enthusiasum and energy my kids potrayed on this trek. As a mother, I feel super proud of them today. We left Mumbai early morning at 7am knowing that it will be a good 3 hour drive. The route we followed was Thane - Kalyan - Murbad - Saralgaon - Tokawad
