    Irshalgad is a fantastic sight to watch especially in the monsoons. Fortunately I have a farmhouse at the base of the hill at the Nadhal Village abutting (Borgaon/Varose and Varosewadi) new resettlement colony of the Morbe Dam evacuees.
    Please let me know when you are arranging a trek to Irshalgad.
