Sural, Tilari & Amboli Falls |
I have been trekking and
traveling around Western Ghat often, got a very good opportunity to do road
trip to visit triple water falls with lovely bunch of like minded new friends. I got invitation from Vijayanand, a very good
friend whom I met in one of the trek.
The plan is visit around Sural, Tilari & Amboli Falls on 15 & 16th
August 2015. The invitation passed to my
other buddies Sudhakar, Shanthi Prasad & Chandrakanth. They all are agreed since it will be our
first visit to Sahyadri range.
Vijay has sent the entire
itinerary and the other details to all of us.
The WhatsApp group made us easy to know the time to time updates. We all
ready to venture Sahyadri range. The
beauty of this trip was all are unknown except Vijay.
Route:
Bengaluru – Belagavi – Sural
Falls – Tilari Falls – Night Camp
Tilari Falls – Amboli Falls –
Hiranyakeshi Temple – Belagavi – Bengaluru

Vijay booked 21 seat bus and
fixed two pickup points. I, Shanthi
Prasad & Chandrakanth boarded from Shanthala Silk. Already there were four members inside the
bus and waiting for us. The second point
was Raja Rajeshwari Nagara where most of the friends boarded the bus. We had a small introduction session inside the bus and the journey
continued.
15.08.2015
Reached early morning of Independence Day around 7 am
to Belagavi. It was decided to refresh
at Parixit home, who is one of the friend in this trip. We all got refreshed and ready to continue our further journey. Tasty coffee served by good
souls. We started our journey to Sural falls around 10 am. Finished yummy breakfast at one of the famous hotel Ramdev in Belagavi.

Beautiful view on the way |
After the breakfast, we headed
towards Sural falls. It is around 50 kms away from Belagavi. On the way we stopped for
multiple photo session. The weather was
awesome and enjoyed everyone. We reached
the view point of Sural falls. There is
an entry fee to reach the view point, unfortunately the revenue is going to Goa
state. This year monsoon is very
weak, unfortunately the falls is not in its glory, however it is not
disappointed to the visitors. Spent good
time in photography and left the place.

Sural Falls |
The next destination is to reach
Tilari Falls. The distance was around
100+ and it is in Maharashtra state. We
have paid the Maharashtra Entry tax after entering into the border. The weather and awesome and entire range is
green carpet.
Around 5 pm reached the Tilari
falls. The clouds were covered entire
the range and it becomes dark. The
vehicle is dropped us nearest point around a KM ahead since the road was not god
for big vehicles. However the cars and
other were driving frequently.

Path towards Tilari Falls |
The place is really so wonderful
and best in its nature. Everywhere we
can see different sizes falls. The
valley was very scary; a wrong step will take our valuable life. While visiting this stretch, be careful. Again the photography session with group
wise, individual and selfie.

Tilari Falls |
We all felt that spent time was
not enough to enjoy the nature, missed this place and headed towards our night
camp.
 |
Beautiful Valley |
Parixit already booked a Green Valley resort, near Tilari village for our night stay. The resort location
is very scenic, we all settled in the respective rooms. Relax walk around the resort, finished the
dinner and retired for the day.

The morning alarm woke up around
5 am. We all headed towards to enjoy the
valley around the Tilari village.
Indeed
the fog beautiful morning filled our soul with scenic view. Spent good time and headed back to
resort.
We finished breakfast on the way
to resort.
After checkout from the resort
headed towards Amboli falls. The weather
was very chilled and expected to pour any time.
The drizzling added extra joy to our trip. The way to Amboli was very scenic
valley. Suddenly saw a huge traffic jam
on the highway, understood we are close the falls.
 |
Amboli Ghat |
This year the monsoon was not
much, however the falls was not disappointed to the visitors. I got shock to see the crowd and vehicle jam
on the highway. Everywhere people were
in full cheerful and more eager to enjoy the falls.
 |
Amboli Falls |
With great difficulties got a place to park
our vehicle. Almost a KM walked towards
falls and just got stunned to see the people.
It was completely filled with tourist, there was no place at all. The rain was pouring good pace. Couple of our friends jumped into the crowd
and enjoyed the falls.
 |
Crazy Crowd!!!!! |
I was very upset to see the crowd
behavior, most of them having the liquor in the public place. Most of the
people put high volume loudspeakers in their vehicles and polluting entire
environment.
The police was watching all
drama silently.
Making promise myself to
visit this false some other monsoon, headed back towards Belagavi. On the way we visited the Hiranyakeshi
temple.

Hiranyakeshi Temple |
Reached comfortably Belagavi in
the evening, had yummy paratha in the famous hotel. The journey is continued towards Bengaluru. Reviewing the two days wonderful road trip
with lovely bunch of friends reached early morning.
I am so happy to meet many
versatile talented friends in this journey.
