About Sandhan Valley Trek with Rappelling:
Sandhan Valley is a deep canyon in the Sahyadri, about 190 km from Pune, and is known as the Valley of Shadows because sunlight does not reach parts of the gorge. The guided trek is listed at about 3 km, the reference height is around 4,255 ft and the grade is moderate. Inside the valley you pass narrow passages between rock walls, natural pools and seasonal water, and the package includes rappelling at the end of the walk. The package is an overnight departure from Pune. Pickup points include Starbucks on FC Road at 10:00 PM and Kasarwadi at 10:30 PM. The group travels through the night, reaches the base village in the early hours and starts the day with a briefing from the trek leader. The walk takes you down into the gorge, through the canyon and then to the rappelling stage, where trained staff manage the ropes. The plan runs through the day and ends with the return to Pune late at night. The valley is a tight space, and water can rise after rain, so the leader may change the plan or shorten the route if conditions are unsafe. Rappelling needs a calm head, and you will be harnessed and briefed before you start. If you are afraid of heights, say so
