Taking my Honda City sedan off-roading: Experience

Since it was just a foot trail, was easily able to drive-thru avoiding any rocks or creeks.

BHPian yogesh.8984 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

This is a story of a mini-adventure. Adventure of taking White Lilly to a place not many would dare to imagine. The picture below with "Live To Drive" moniker exemplifies the spirit of exploring and conquering the unchartered territories and achieving a great sense of satisfaction having triumphed the odds of making it!

Hi All, recently visited a place called Anjarle in the Konkan belt along the west coast of Maharashtra for a weekend getaway. During the afternoon while there was nothing much to do, planned for a quick excursion at a place called Friends Point (location), which is accessible by a foot trail from Anjarle–Ade road or by a small trek from a seashore. It’s a beautiful place with a great view of the sun going down the sea during sunsets.

However, the major attraction of this excursion was to take my Honda City right at the top thru a foot trail avoiding rocks and creeks and balancing the wheels in a way not scraping the underbelly. It turned out to be great fun.

I will let the below pictures do the talking.

Started from Anjarle village on Anjarle–Ade road and took left after about twenty minutes of drive.

Since it's just a foot trail was careful driving thru creeks and rocks and avoiding off-balancing.

Overlooking the Arabian sea and its grandeur.

This was such an amazing feeling to be sitting in a car at such a place and waiting for sunset in the evening.

There is a newly built lighthouse on the other side of the road which is yet to become operational. Can be seen in the below picture.

After sunset, it started getting dark very quickly. With no network coverage on any of the cell phones, we started making our way back to our place of stay in Anjarle village.

Took the same path to get back on the road as it was getting dark and there was no time for experiments.

Once back on road, it was smooth sailing back to the den with a mind filled with pride and some awesome memories!

Here's what BHPian 2000rpm had to say on the matter:

The GC of the 4th generation city is much better than most people expect/know. It's enough to not scrape even a single speed breaker in Mumbai.
