History Info :

Kalsubai Peak is said to take its name from a Koli girl named Kalsu.’ Kalsu, according to the story, was fond of wandering in the forest. One day she came to Indore at the foot of the hill now called Kalsubai, and took service with a Koli family on condition that she should not be asked to clean pots or to sweep.

Matters went smoothly till, one day, one of the family ordered Kalsu to clean some pots and clear away some Utter. She did as she was bid, bat, immediately after, climbed the hill and stayed on its top till her death. Where she cleaned the pots is known as Thale Mel, and where she cleared away the litter as Kaldara.

The Auspicious Temple of Kalsubai Devi at the summit

The Kalsubai temple is considered very auspicious and many villagers still visit the temple to seek the blessings of Kalsubai Devi. The temple is open throughout the year.

 

A pleasant walk amidst fields, farmland, and grasslands

Bari village is a farming village, from the start of the trek the walk is through extensive fields and farming land. This is the best part of the trek and is an easy enjoyable walk.

 

The Thrill of climbing four narrow iron ladders on vertical rock faces!

The ladder section comprising four narrow iron ladders is the most adventurous and challenging part of the trek.
The ascent and descent on this trek is the same way so there is a two-way traffic of trekkers and villagers! Trekking in the monsoon season can be tricky on these ladders.
