Pune Heritage Cycle Ride

I have been riding and hiking with Raw Adventure Solutions since 2015, and though I live in New Jersey, I try to combine my frequent trips to Pune with some sort of adventure travel experience. Both my Panshet Parikrama cycling trips (in 2015 and 2017) and both Konkan Cycling trips (also 2015 and 2017) were memorable. Both trips involved overnights (camping one night for Panshet, and homestays for 2 nights for the Konkan beach cycling trip) , and as you can imagine, a lot of preparation and planning went into making those trips comfortable and successful. I also did a monsoon hike - Andharban trail - in the Sahyadri's , them, and it involved a very wet and treacherous descent and many wild stream crossings. Again the organizers were well equipped, safety trained and very helpful to get our large group safely down to the bottom. Vikas and his team do an excellent job in organizing adventure events, and they really make an effort to take care of you personally, which I greatly appreciated.

I believe everyone embarks on an adventure to experience something exciting. The excitement can lead you to new places, life-changing experiences, and new discoveries about self, nature, and environment. In most cases, we look for a guide or an experienced hand to be on our side as we embark on our adventure and enjoy our experience. RAW Adventure Solutions is one such company that you can rely on for such experiences. I have done nearly 7 to 8 events with RAW over the past 5 years and every time the experience has been very satisfying. Vikas Kaduskar, the founder of RAW, is well-trained and equipped with the knowledge required to conduct adventure camps and activities. Vikas is always on the move to explore places in and around Pune and has always provided a very safe, enticing, and satisfying experience in all his activities; be it rock climbing, children's camps, white water rafting, trekking, camping, bike rides, cycling expeditions, watching fireflies, and much more. RAW - as the name suggests - actually gives you the experience of the raw wilderness in the western ghats in the safest way possible. Safety is the utmost priority at RAW and they are always equipped for emergencies and first-aid measures in all their activities. My most recent events with RAW were Fire Flies festival and Waterfall Trail. Needless to say again, both were beautiful and memorable experiences.
