My 1st Trekking
DATE: December 25, 2011
ROUTE: Ramapuram, Chennai – Porur – Poonamalle – Thiruvallur – Utthukottai
– Nagalapuram – Aaree and Back
PLACE: Nagalapuram Hills, Andhra Pradesh, India
Anbu Mani and I were
discussed two days before about
Nagalapuram trekking. If we are free at weekend. We will go to Nagalapuram, i.e.,
our plan.
On
December 24, Saturday night we both confirmed
the Nagalapuram trekking plan.
On
December 25, Sunday, I woke up at 3:30
am and was ready for trekking and rode to Anbu’s Home at Ramapuram and from there,
then we have travelled to Nagalapuram by his Bike [up and down - 180 km].
Morning Weather was very chill and
cool, we were had frozen.
Anbu was going to this place the second
time, it’s the first trekking to me, with no idea
(about route or area). So, I have followed Anbu.
We reached Uttukottai around 7 am and had breakfast and waited for Chennai Trekking Club
Members, but if they went to another place or took another route. So we continued
our travelling.
We reached Aaree and we walked from
Aaree village to Hills 3~3.5 km.
At the entrance, there is a lake, filled
with water (winter season that’s why lake otherwise only half or a quarter of its
capacity were filled, nice view), then we walked toward forest. It was very beautifully and very
peacefully…
Anbu told me about his previous trekking
experience and singing (shouting J) song, make a noise!!!!!!…
Around 1:30 pm, we reached (searching
waterfall but failed to find) at some point, we lost hope finding the waterfall,
also hungry and a little bit tired, so we both had the discussion and decided to return…
We ate fruits, Biscuits, Bread, dates,
and etc.
While coming back, we both took bath
at the stream, the water was so chill and refreshing. The moment I fell on the water, I
feel the strange thing in my body, all my tiredness, leg pain, hungry were filed
away. What a pleasant moment!!!
We enjoyed all moments during the
trekking…
With full of happiness and freshness in
body and mind, we came back to Chennai…
