Walking the Epic Sahyadri Trail, end to end.
The EST isn’t only a set of day stages — it’s a continuous long-distance expedition. This is the record of the full traverse: the line, the logistics, and the story.

The idea
The Epic Sahyadri Trail stitches together ridge after ridge of the Western Ghats into one continuous, walkable line. The expedition is our attempt to survey, document and openly publish the whole thing — so any hiker can follow it, in pieces or in full.
The logistics
Water, resupply, permissions, weather windows and escape routes — this section will hold the expedition log, planning spreadsheets and lessons learned as the traverse progresses.

Expedition dispatches will be posted to the blog. Want to support or join a survey leg? We’re hiring surveyors.
