Trek to Kalsubai Peak from Indore Route

The Highest Peak in Maharashtra

Let’s connect to our roots

Kalsubai is the highest peak in Maharashtra (5400 ft.), located near Igatpuri, Sahyadri region. Climbing the peak from Indore route is less-explored and meant for experienced trekkers, especially during the monsoon. The trek offers a breath-taking combination of natural environments like waterfalls, forests and grasslands.

The Kalsubai Temple at the summit of the peak is visited by people from the nearby villages throughout the year. They come to take blessings from Kalsubai Devi. It is believed that a young village girl named Kalsubai, lived in the mountains. During that time, she cured villagers and animals and helped in village activities. One day, she left for the summit and never returned. So in her memory, a small temple was built at her home on the mountainside, and the main Kalsubai temple was built on the peak
