Okay one of my friends told me that she wants to get into action and go on a few trekking / mountaineering outings in India after having read about mountaineering, especially on this forum. Where should she start? I think it will it be a good idea to start with Western Ghats - Sinhagad, Lohgad or the likes, for instance, i reckon, as she is based in Pune. What say alpinists?
