Kalavantin Durg and Prabalmachi
About this trek
Kalavantin is a pinnacle of rock beside Prabalgad, between Panvel and Matheran, and its last stretch is a flight of steps cut into its face long ago, steep and without a railing. From the top the view runs across Prabalgad to Matheran, Irshalgad and, on a clear day, the sea. The path climbs from Thakurwadi through forest to Prabalmachi, a plateau with a hamlet of a few houses, and on to the base of the pinnacle. It is short but steep and exposed, which is why it is graded difficult, and an early start keeps the climb out of the strongest sun.
