Dukes nose is a huge pinnacle which can be seen while travelling between Mumbai and Pune. Its shape is like a nose or a thumb. The sights from the top are unique and magnificent as one sees a vast landscape and the winding Mumbai Pune Express Highway cutting through the ghats and trains chugging along the tracks. It is famous for rock climbing, valley crossing and rappelling adventure activities.
Imagine going down on a rope which is set at 45 degree angle, downwards, with 800 Ft valley below you. You can feel the cool wind in ur hair and butterfly in your tummy !!!
