Trekking the Shiradi Ghats.
2 days, 55 km, rain and shine, trollies and trains, bridges and tunnels, bags and tents, MTR ready to eat and Cup-o-noodles and a never ending urge to get to Subhramanya Road from Sakleshpur on foot.
A set of photos taken during the trek along the ghat section in the Sakleshpur-Subrahmanya section, by Ramdev Gowda, Pawan Koppa and Bizzy Mishra.

Wonderful album showcasing the beauty of the ghat section. I'm really looking forward to the day when day passenger services start on this section.
