▶ Date of the event: 3rd and 4th December 2011

▶ Meeting Point: Thane Station sharp at 6am, (Train time table will be displayed later on)


▶ Trek Fees: Rs.1400 only
• For group discount please contact the organisers

▶The details of these events are as follows,

• ROCK CLIMBING
It is a sport in which participants climb up across natural rock formations or artificial rock walls. The goal is to reach the summit of a formation or the endpoint of a pre-defined route. Rock climbing competitions have objectives of completing the route in the quickest possible time or the furthest along an ever increasingly harder route.


•RAPELLING

It is also known as abseiling (German Name) is a method of a quick and safe descend after a climb. It's an act of descending a mountain face by sliding down a rope, which is attached to a body harness and fastened to an overhead projection, with sufficient friction provided as to make the speed of descent controllable.


• JUMARING

It is also referred to as jugging, is where the second climber (the one who belays the lead climber on the route) uses ascenders to climb the rope instead of climbing directly on the rock. Along with the ascenders, one or more webbing "ladders" called étriers (or aiders) are typically used to allow the climber to use their feet to step up and pull themselves up the rope.

• ROPE BALANCING

It is the activity which increases your concentration..one rope will be tied 3-4fts above the land and one rope will be in your hand attacthched to one of the tree.you have to walk on the rope which is above ground


These events are going to be held under very expert person Mr.Kelkar

About :

Gorakhgad is a fort that can be done easily in a day, both from Mumbai and Pune. Though not famous for any historical events, Gorakhgad attracts trekkers due to its inviting pinnacles, which offer good opportunities for rock-climbing. This region of Gorakhgad and Machchindragad has a dense forest cover.

Fort Gorakhgad is quite small in size. It was had strategic importance during the reign of Shahaji Raje. However, no major battle is recorded to have taken place here. It was used in Shivaji's era to patrol the nearby region and was used as a stopover station during the journey to Junnar via Naneghat. Though small in size, there is enough availability water and a lot of space for accommodation. The fort gets its name from Saint Gorakhnath, who performed his "Sadhana" in this place.
