This isn’t just any trek. The Stoneforest Trek was found, explored, and named by us. The trail lies within private land and leads to something truly magical — an untouched natural tidepool by the sea.

It starts from the ringed coastal hills of Vengurla, where you’re greeted by a breathtaking bird’s eye view of the ocean below. Pure Konkan magic.

The Trek

As you descend, the distant roar of the ocean gets louder. The forest wraps around you like a secret — dense, wild, and alive. Sunlight barely makes it through the thick canopy.

It’s a short 20-minute trek but has its challenges. Don’t be fooled — your knees will feel it. But hey, even 65-year-young adventurers have done it with ease. That’s how thrilling (and doable) it is.

The Tidepool

Now for the showstopper — the natural tidepool. Surrounded by sculpted rock formations on all four sides, it feels like nature carved out a private pool just for you. There’s a natural gate that lets the waves crash in, keeping the experience raw and alive.

You’ll often spot vibrant intertidal life here at low tide. If you’re lucky, we spotted a man-sized turtle snorkelling near the pool on drone!

Best Time:

Timing is everything. The tidepool looks and feels different depending on the tide. Our coordinators will guide you to visit at just the right time for the best experience.
