Treking in 
Konkan

Sahyadris
  

To the west, Maharashtra occupies 500km of the Konkan coast on the Arabian Sea, from Gujarat to Goa; travelling has always been circuitous, as the coast winds back and forth with countless inlets, ridges and valleys, again peppered with forts. In the absence of its former seaborne traffic, this region of picturesque ports and deserted beaches cannot provide enough work for its young people, who are forced to move to Bombay, though the imminent advent of controversial Konkan Railway connecting Bombay with Goa and southern Karnataka, may well open it up to new opportunities. Close to Bombay, sleepy, old-fashioned Murud-Janjira has splendid beaches and an extraordinary island fort. More determined travellers with time to zigzag their way around will find more, all the way to Goa; places such as Raigarh, Ratnagiri , Vijayadurg, Malwan, and Sindhudurg, each with its own history and a battle-scarred fort to prove it.
