First Experience as a solo traveller - Saputara Adventure Camp
Saputara is a hill town in the west Indian state of Gujarat, which is far away from Ahmedabad around 400 km.There are many places which are fantastic for the enjoyment especially in mansoon season. I visited there with Invincible NGO which work for the youth.
Basically, it was 3 days adventure camp. During this Days I visited 8 places :- Saputara museum,Gira waterfall, saputara lake & garden,Rose garden,step garden, Governer hill, Echo point, Sunset point.
For this camp you can register on

Things to be carried for the camp:
I exactly remember, the bus comes at 11:30 PM but unfortunately, it was lated about 1 hour. I get in to the bus from the Express Highway C.T.M Ahemdabad.
When,I went for that journey, there was heavy rains in Saputara & nearby places that’s why my father got angry on me just because of I choose that camp in monsoon season and weather conditions but,after some discussion he agree with me & I finally reached at Saputara on 4th July 2019.

Day 1 :-
On that day, we reached at Saputara in the morning 10:00 AM. After that period, we had completed our breakfast then we had played some games with new friends. Actually the purpose of the games was everyone can interact with eachother that’s why we play games. Afterwards, we took our lunch,which was very delicious.
After that lunch we went for some sight seen place like Museum of Saputara,lake and Sun-set point. Unfortunately, on that day there was a heavy rain and we can’t watch Sunset but at that place sky was looking so Beautiful seenery. After the dinner we want to firecamp🔥But, it was too cold & we had not found wood as well. So we played Garba on small Speaker.
Overall, I’m totally satisfied with my first day at Saputara adventure Camp.
I played volleyball game with my New friends:-
Sunset point :-
Day 2 :-
The Second day of Saputara adventure camp was great. As a trekking lover & nature lover I feel Absolutely adventure full. On that day we had completed our trekking of Saputara forest and Mountain which were located at top of the saputara around 1000 m from the sea level. Surprisingly, there was huge rain occurred & everyone got afraid beacuse we were on the top of the mountain and how can we return to our base camp ?
After waiting for 2 hours, when we started to return at base camp we got some sleepry place, but finally we got to our destination and have some street food like Meggie,tea and corn (Bafeli makai).
After trekking session we were totally free So we had played volleyball with new people who came at my base camp.
Difficult trekking beacuse of Heavy Rain :-

Day 3 :-
The third and last day of our camp was quite difficult in the morning due heaviest rain. We have to spent our time in our tent around 4 to 5 hours. After that period we packup our bags as well as tent & went for the GIRA WATERFALL.This is one of the finest places in Saputara,where we captured some natural beauties pictures and then we return for our home.

Kahani (कहानी) By Pratik Patel (Bunny) based on my Experience.
ये हसीन वादियां
और ये हरीभरी पहाड़ियाये विरान सनसनी भरी हवाए
और ये झिलमिलाती टहनियापंछियों का चहकना
बारिश का बंद ही नही होनाऔर ये फूल पत्तो का गिरना बादलों से उपर बसती है यहां जिंदगीया
ये कहानी है सापुतारा की...
