·         Dear trekkers,

·         We have now decided to take you all on a trail to a place which is one of the best monsoon trek. We are going to DEVINAMAL Eco Camp this time and we are taking you with us!

·         To connect with the Nature in its purest form & on a popular demand from our Youth hostels members, We YHAI - BHARUCH UNIT is Organising a ONE DAY TREK AT DEVINAMAL Eco Camp site located near Ahwa in Dang.

Come and see What lies beyond the hill, peep into the unseen and have a feel of Trekking activities, Bird watching, know the trees, Dip in to water fall etc. All the members are invited to grab this opportunity to escape from day to day outline life and enjoy the nature’s beauty.

·         Devinamal Campsite – Eco Tourism Center in Dang  : Devinamal Campsite is an Eco-tourism site located 5 km off from the Dang district headquarter, Ahwa. Placed amidst the dense jungles of the Dangs, Devinamal has emerged as fresh Eco-tourism center after Kilad and Mahal. Nature enthusiasts can stay in the tent like domes built by the forest department. The department also conducts educational sessions & camps for students after monsoon season. Devinamal – Anatomy of the Name, As aforementioned, I didn’t meet anyone so this analysis of the name is certainly my self-made theory. Feel free to correct me in the comments. Devinamal = Devi + Na + Mal,  Devi – Goddess (or God) of the ethnic groups.  Mal – A place at higher altitude than its surroundings. Devinamal – A raised area stationing the almighty.Close to Ahwa and 3 kms off the Ahwa-Saputara road lies the Devinamal Eco Campsite. Surrounded on all sides by lush green forest, the campsite lies near the banks of the River Khapri. It provides excellent walking and trekking options. It gets its name from the various shrines, each housing a Hindu deity (Vinayak, Hanuman, Rama, Kali, and Shiva).
