The bus had leave by 10.45am after a well blessed symbolic style (lal tilak) impression by Vishalji to all trekkers inside the bus. Actually the bus journey is meant for local sightseeing at Jabalpur. Before the journey flagship our YHAI Jabalpur unit chairman Mr. Sampad Basu told about the Jabalpur is an ancient and historical city of temples, pilgrims, marble rocks and enchanting waterfalls, which has referenced about the mythological epics of our legendary volume RAMAYANA. It was also the center point of Hayhaya dynasty and also the capital of Gond Kingdoms during the 12th century. Jabalpur also later ruled by the Kalchuri Kingdom. Still today most of unknown about the center points of India. Actually the centre point of india is situated at the Manohar gram near karondi at a approximately 63km distance from Jabalpur. 

During our Jabalpur sightseeing tour we start from shivbhakti darshan kee sath, from kachnnar temple, the temple is founded on a naked open air auditorium.

After the Kachnar Shivjikaa area darshan, we proceed towards the balance rock, tortoise rock & Madan Mahal Fort site. By the 2.00pm we cover most of points at Jabalpur, and then proceeds to Rani Durgavati’s Samadhisthal (cemetery) for a perfect lunch before pack up to see Bargi dam and cruise ride at Maikal Lake. At last we stayed at lameheta ghat.

Just after the sunrise as per our scheduled plan we repacked our tent & kits starts a cool move towards new Bheraghat. As most of the trekkers were too worried for view the majestic scenery of marvel rocks, Dhuandhaar water falls, besides it boating at Narmada basins under the marvel curves, sightseeing which includes Chausathi Yogini temple and Panchavati even marketing of marvel stones artistry products from the local basement market. After all the total trek is too limited i:e 6km only. The trek also pack of full amazing scene we passes just bank side of river Narmada. Actual this day is the actual 1st day trek which one base as river banks trek, 101% chances to use water body as fun & Fonda. After a lots of activities at last night stay near the ropeways footsteps and just behind the Duandhar water fall.

3rd day (27.10.2010 Wednesday) left Jabalpur and proceeds to Amarkantak via GHUGHWA national fossils park.

Actually the 3rd day journey is its self a Legendry trips for the all trekkers, because of its distance and our mostly time-pass through wayside carom, close-up Antaakhyariee (hosted by Sushma singh’& Kavya Bhatt, Mumbai) & boring Bhaangaraa’s on every two hrs bus journey. About 267km which was too bored to any one who’re inside the bus,while by car trip with Vishalji they also enjoyed a lot but one thing is the seating arrangements which are done by the management was truly innovative. During the bus trip before reached to at GHUGHWA national parks (which were scheduled to be the lunch point) our close-up Antaakhyari programme goes & goes on till we in touch up our night destination sonmura waterfall point at Amarkantak region. This place is the birth place of soon river which one flown-up via Chattisgarh, Bihar & West Bengal at last kissing up to River Ganga then finally at bay of Bengal.

The real adventurous trek of Jabalpur unit starts from today’s onward. While the Jabalpur trek is based on the sights seeing points of view, at that time this Amarkantak tour is based on the packs thrill, horror, journey through the waterfalls, dams, passes through the tribal villages, enjoys various types of jungle fruits, discovers & identifies a lots of herbal plants & spices, well close-ups through flora & fauna etc.4th days trek is based on 10km walks only via Amarkantak bio-diversity protected social forest up to the ecological troposphere cum nature trail route of Amarkantak forestry range division.
