About the Trek:
Nagphani, later known as Duke’s Nose after Duke Wellington, is a cliff at Khandala near Lonavala. The Cliff is pointed like a snake's pointed head portion (hood) hence the name Nagphani (Nag means snake and Phani means hood). The name Duke's nose is derived from the cliff that looked like the shape of the Duke. This is a marvelous trekking spot near Lonavala. The one-hour walk takes you to the top of Duke’s nose. Valley crossing from Duke's Nose to Duchess Nose is great fun due to roaring winds, a Foggy atmosphere and of course Deep Valley. Rappelling from the Duke’s Nose is quite a thrilling experience with 90 Degree Rappelling in a combination of Overhang and deep Valley View.
