The trek through Andharban is one of the most refreshing treks in the Sahyadri region. The name
‘Andharban’ is a compound word, coming from Andhar, meaning ‘dark’, and ban, which means
‘forest’. Literally the ‘dark forest’, Andharban is a trail through dense overgrowth, with beautiful
views of the Devkund waterfall, Plus Valley and the Tamhini Ghat along the way. Scattered
throughout with numerous small streams and waterfalls, it is a descending trek – it begins at an
elevation of approximately 2,160 feet in the Sahyadri mountains and descends down into the valley,
to reach the backwaters of the Bhira Dam.
