Geocache Description:

You will have to really work for this cache. The cache is on the peak of the mountain. You will climb near about 1100 steps. 

If you are someone who like a physically challenging trek then you will definitely enjoy this trek.

Once you reach the peak, you will still need to walk nearly a kilometer (half a mile) to reach the point where cache is placed. If you go there in rainy season it will be full of mist and it will add to its beauty.

Keeping in mind the height and distance from the Anjaneri temple on the top, it should be free of muggles. BUT one should not underestimate a muggle, they can be very troublesome, so BEWARE of muggles. 

Carry a pocket knife. You'll need it.
