  “ Nice Half day trek, Did about 6 KM Trek, we took a long route to the temple and back via the urban forest climbing boulders, hills, bushes. Lot of thorns greeted us all the way which everyone was busy removing during the breaks. It was sunny and we decide to call it a trek by about 2:30 PM. Good participation by everyone. Good Group of members. All the New comers did quite well. the Kids Harsha and Dhuni Did quite well beyond expectations. ”
