It was like 6 years ago, when I went to this trekking spot. Basically, it's a more nature lover place. As I love to explore more places, my friend recommended this place to me to look to. So, I went to this place and it was like there was a security check at the entrance. They check for everything in our bag and they take snack type things such as lays packets. As it was prohibited as they gave the reason that people can eat and throe packets here and there then it will affect the ecosystem.
After that when we reach ahead then there is a small zoo where different types of birds are any caged there. After that there is a small cafeteria where we can eat and drink something before we can actually start the trekking. Public restrooms have also been installed at the starting of the trekking spot plus there is a small lake where we can stand and take a picture.
After that, we can start trekking and at last there is one fort i.e. Karnala Fort. From above, the scenery is nice and peaceful. All Clouds looks very much relaxing and shadow the entire forest. During the monsoon season, it's very good and beautiful but trekkers need to take care of landslides too sometimes.
Tips to keep in mind while visiting the location:-
1) Extra snacks are not allowed, if brought then they will take them at entrance and return it while leaving.
2) If you bring a professional camera then you have to pay for its charges.
3) Do not feed the birds that have been kept in a cage.
4) Don't throw garbage here and there.
5) Don't disturb the ecosystem.
At last, I just wanna tell the beginners that are just starting their hobbies in trekking. This is the best place to start trekking as it's not too high and not too low, it's better for a beginner to experience a trekking environment. For a group of friends, it's also a great place for outing and even for corporate to engage with each other.
