The Monsoon Expedition

Get directions

Discover your wild side on KTC’s Monsoon Expedition Trip- a 4-day journey traversing the untamed Sahyadri hills, the foothills, and the coast in Sindhudurg, Maharashtra! This isn’t your usual hill station getaway. It’s a deep dive into Konkan’s monsoon soul — untamed, grounding, and full of heart. 

The Western Ghats have been around since the continents split some 150 Million years ago. It is thriving with stunning wildlife, waterfalls, & rivers of incomparable beauty. The coastal village life is something you should not miss in Monsoon! In stark contrast to the raging rains of Konkan- the waterfalls & babbling streams that come to life are calming to the soul. Rain is rejuvenation and we have put together a unique itinerary for you to discover life anew..

All that along with heart-warming local hospitality, food, and love. Ain’t that exciting? Also, we have set departures from Pune, Mumbai!

Locations

  1. Amboli 
    In the folds of the Sahyadris, Amboli comes alive with rainfall, curtain-like waterfalls, and lush forest trails. Every monsoon here feels like a first rain, drenching the land in silence, frogsong, and fresh green.
  2. Tillari
    Tucked between dense hills, Tillari unfolds like a secret. With overflowing reservoirs, misty cliffs, and forest roads wrapped in vines, it’s a place where you lose track of time and signal.
  3. Dodamarg
    At the border of Maharashtra and Goa, Dodamarg blurs lines—between farmland and forest, river and road, known and unknown. Come monsoon, it’s a raw, quiet world of flooded trails, grazing buffaloes, and local rhythms.
  4. Vengurla
    Vengurla’s coast transforms in the rains—waves grow restless, skies stay heavy, and the beaches feel almost private. Between cashew hills and wind-battered lighthouses, you feel the season, not just see it.

Which is the best season to travel in Konkan?

Squeezed in the lap of the Western Ghats and the Arabian sea, every season in Konkan has something unique to offer. Summer is for exploring hidden beaches, water sporting, scuba, scenic mangrove boat safaris, fort trails, wild fruit trails, and more. Winter is for everything summer, plus a major mood for camps and a season of Jatras in Konkan. You get to witness the traditional Dashavtar live theatre in a Jatra. Monsoon is very underrated here.

To make all the arrangements, we recommend a confirmation at least a week before travel.
