Wild Woods Trail, Dangs, Gujarat


Purna-Gira Trail Route

Wild Woods Trail (WWT) is an initiative by the Forest Department in Dangs to promote eco-tourism and to create awareness about the need to protect forests and environment and to provide livelihood to the local tribals. WWT is a first of its kind trekking experience in the State with excellent camping sites, guides and offers a package of facilities to tourist trekkers.

Purna-Gira Trail, named after the two beautiful rivers of Dangs and stretching over 18 km, is one of the most thrilling of all the trails under WWT. Starting from Mahal Camp Site, the trail moves through Barumal watch tower, Dhulda, Chikhalda and reaches the base of the Girmal water falls near Girmal in a span of nine and a half hours. The entire trek route has been mapped and dotted with trek points.
