Then again, around 4.30 in morning, we again went inside the forest with our
guides, (after failed attempt to wake up others, we let them enjoyed their sweet dreams), so this time we were only 6 people (3 guide included) and this time we enjoyed the morning aura.
We met with the Flying squirrel, may be it became familiar now, and so didn’t shy away from us. After 1 and 1/2 hour, we could see little sun light, reaching to us after passing through the woods. We started moving back to our base, now we could hear birds tweeting and chirping. It was so amazing, very soft and sweet.
We reached back to the farm house at 6.30. As our other GANG members were also waking up after their sweet dream sleep, so we all started to get ready. Had breakfast (heavy one) and packed our bags and tents and loaded into car boots. We left the ‘Stanely Farm’ at around 8.30-9 am and headed towards Belgaum.
Had pit stops on route and we reached Bijapur at around 2pm. We paid our
homage to Mohammed Adil Shah and visited GOL GUMBAZ, also had photo session. Had our lunch in KTDC hotel and embarked on our journey.
Now roads were good, so we covered distance fast. Photography continued in cars itself. And soon it started getting dark. We made our next stop for dinner at a Dhaba near by HANUMABAD and again started towards Hyderabad. Finally reached our city around 12.30 midnight.
This brought us to the end of a memorable trip, which will last forever. Thanks to our organizer Ali bhai for organizing such a amazing trip and thanks to all GANG members for making this trip memorable.See you guys soon on next trek………!!!

Hi,
We a group of 11 ppl are planning to go to dandeli from dec 24th-27th. We are planning to stay in stanley’s farm. How is the stay over there. The package is costing us Rs.4500 per person for 4 days and 3 nights. Is it worth it. Can you please let me know of your experience. Your suggestions will be valuable.
Thanks,
Jaya
Hi Jaya,
We stayed there for 2 nights and place is really gud, if you are not on luxurious trip.
About pricing, I m not sure, because in my case, our Organizer (Ali) took care of all the stuff.
But people there are very friendly and always ready to guide u. The location is absolutely right for that kind of trip. They have package deal which includes some adventurous activities, just check with them.
Enjoy the trip.
Regards,
Naveen
