RAJMACHI CAMPING
- IN GO. NEE. DA. WADI
नमस्कार / Namaskar
We are in the last month of the current monsoon (2017) and Rajmachi region is at its best natural beauty.
I invite you to visit Rajmachi in one of the week-ends in this September 2017.
RAJMACHI CAMPING - IN GO. NEE. DA. WADI
We will extend all possible help and assistance to make your trek to Rajmachi a joyful and memorable event.
There are two Trekking
Routes to Fort Rajmachi,
(a) from Lonavala and
(b) from Kondivde or Kondhane village in Karjat Taluka of
Raigad
District.
Lonavala – Rajmachi
distance is 15 km and it is almost a plain walk, though there are a few ups and
downs on this path. It takes about three and a half hour to cover the distance
on foot.
During
the rainy season, a vehicle cannot be taken right up to Rajmachi. However, a
strong utility vehicle like Tata Sumo, Mahindra Bolero, Qualis, etc. can be
taken up to Jambhali Phata, on the way to Rajmachi. This route is via Khandala,
Summer Hill, Kune village, Della Adventure Resort, Patel Dam and Phanasarai.
The
Section of this Route from Khandala up to Della Adventure Resort is a good road
fit for ordinary passenger cars. However, the Section of this Route from Della
Adventure Resort to Jambhali Phata is a very rough track. It is not fit for
ordinary passenger cars.
गो. नी. दा. वाडी (GO. NEE. DA. WADI) is our Camping Site at Udhewadi on the plateau of
Fort Rajmachi, for the benefit of Trekkers and Nature Lovers.
GO. NEE. DA. WADI / गो. नी. दा. वाडी
There
are 2 dormitories which accommodate in all 70 persons for overnight stay.

However, we modify the above standard package as per needs of a

Two important
conditions which every person camping in गो. नी. दा. वाडी (GO. NEE. DA. WADI) will have to
strictly comply with are us under:
Ø Consumption of
alcoholic drinks is strictly prohibited. Every camper has to comply with this
condition with honesty. There is no compromise in compliance of this condition.
In case any breach of this condition by anyone in the group is noticed, the
entire group will be thrown out of our Camping Site without any mercy.
Ø We require a
