Panaji: GTDC’s Sunday monsoon trekking expeditions are getting bigger and better
every passing Sunday.
In an exercise to make the expeditions more exciting and meaningful, this Sunday, the trek
heads to Budruk Shelop known for its small seasonal cascades near Valpoi in Sattari taluka,
which is bursting rich with Goa’s bio-diversity at this time of the year. One can get the
thrills of soaking oneself at the different cascades of Budruk Shelop. This Sunday’s trek also has
a mix of history and adventure. For those who would like to relish a slice of history, a visit
to the BRAHMA TEMPLE at BRAHMAKARMALI is on the itinerary.
The trek will cover a distance of 4 kms through semi forests, slippery rocky terrain, running
rivulets, lush greenery and cover three cascades. The trekking expedition is open to
all especially those with a spirit for adventure and nature lovers.

Panjim at 8.30 a.m. Pick up facility also available from Old Goa, Banasthari, Sankhali & Birla
