My first trek to Ahobilam

It was matter of 2015 Almost 5 years ago , that is time where I struggled from a jobless at good money making job after two years of graduation and I was wondering and searching for the meaning of life , Is life is all about studying, getting job , earning , getting married , children and old age these life cycle came into my mind and I really really don't want to be and follow the same and life was like a time lapse mode even which I don't want to but still I was remaining to became part of that cycle couldn't escape from it as it as life cycle everyone has to go through these phases and all it depends upon us how good we enjoyed the each phase of life and make memories (good & bad) from out of it ☺️ 

I only realised this lines when I want to bring some changes to my current life to escape from the routine life cycle then I searched for best things that make life to cherish more is traveling ❣️ I signed up an account on meetup  2 years back but didn't used it while browsing about traveling found that meetup app again logged in and searched for events , I saw a post of event to Ahobilam which was hosted by climbon adventure club  read complete iternary and did RVSP, I was still hesitant to participate as I don't know much anything about how to participate , While doing rsvp shared my contact information and organizer contacted me to know interest of participation to event and I was still not sure as he explained everyone is stranger none of us know eachother , I wasn't knowing this till he explained me and I wasn't sure of paying money to him , I thought he might escape with it 🤣🤣 yes sounds little funny 😉 because till that point of time, I understand nothing will comes free everything has its own price tag😊


However I convinced myself and Payed the amount joined on WhatsApp group created for a trip to keep post updates, they posted the 
list of things to bring which require for a trip.
I had did small research and found that things can be brought at Decathlon visited store and did shopping of ₹12,000 for a trip of ₹3000 , I felt this is the first time I did shopping so much for myself means highest amount ever after started earning, I was always thinking about savings but this changed my way of thinking towards life.

Trip day came close luckily it was very small team just size of 10-11 members and all were gentlemen😊 they planned trip using public transportation of APSRTC bus , I have boarded lastly as my stop was end of the city.

Once I boarded the bus then organizer came to me and introduced himself and team as it was 11PM everyone. It was close to 6 hrs journey


Next day we reached last stop of boarded bus it was Nadyala, Andhra Pradesh from there it was 64Km to Ahobilam, We got freshup and boarded local bus to Ahobilam.

After two hours we reached Ahobilam busstand, From there we took auto to reach Ahobilam Temple as it was through dense forest of Nallamalla which is also called as Amazon forest of India. 

Captured some snaps soon after reaching the temple and we have took choultry rooms for rent got fresh up and I didn't have any idea of trekking trails and not sure of how it is going to be, Soon after enquiry of trails organizer decided and informed team to wrap things and that we are heading towards Ugra stambam.

It was 2-3 hrs of trail and steep climbing after complete ascending and descending that you thighs will hurt yes but it is worth of it was about start winter season we have witnessed waterfall inbetween of climbing through dense forest and hills, We have taken very good advantage of it and enjoyed and moved forward towards Ugra stambam as we keep climbing we could see huge number of monekys which are ready to grab your bags.

Very difficulty we have managed and reached to peak point, I was speechless after reaching that point. It was like a pinpoint of pen completely sorround by dense forest and hills which is unforgettable moment of the trip.

When we are heading back one of moneky troubled me grabbed my bag, I was not interested to hurt it at the same time don't want let it go my bag , just holded it meanwhile got a help from teammate and escaped from it.
