Rani Jhari was pure magic! Bandaje Falls trek is no walk in the park—it’s pretty intense with plenty of steep climbs—but the foggy landscapes and insane views more than make up for it. Rated it medium on difficulty. Huge shoutout to our guides, who were super friendly, helpful, and kept us safe throughout! Enjoyed the whole 2 days!
Go up the trails and feel the top of everything !!!
