    Transport: In case it rains Jeep will drop till the point where the road is motorable. The participant will have to walk 3-6 km to reach the base village. 

    Traveling by Own vehicle:
    Ideally you are supposed to meet the group at Della Adventures in Lonavla at the specified time in itinerary and proceed to the trek along with the trek leader and other participants to avoid any inconvenience. You may choose to reach the trek location directly but keep in mind the trek location is in remote area and network is pretty bad. You may not be able to contact us on phone or we may not be able to contact you on phone. Also the road from lonavla to the trek location is in extreme bad condition. The driver needs to be skilled in off-road driving to be able to reach Rajmachi. 

    Stay: The stay for this event will be at village homestay. This group homestay at a village house comprises of a large hall for the group to rest at night. Each participant needs to carry a mat/sleeping-bag to rest upon. Please remember this is a extremely basic shelter in village home. 

    The main focus of this event is watching "Fireflies" and this is not a Camping focused event. 

    Situation: This is specifically a Fireflies-focused event, and due to weather conditions, all other things need to be handled as per the best-suited option basis. The event schedule, itinerary, group composition, and all operational aspects are subject to change without prior notice. In these uncertain times, we will try to do our best to get things rolling but unavoidable circumstances may impact the operations. Please Do-Not book this event if you are not comfortable with the given situation, uncertainty aspects, stay options and travel options explained above.

    Detailed information

    Information Update 

    Fireflies sighting has already started since couple of days at all fireflies festival locations. According to observations its a good start and soon we will be able to witness thousands of fireflies in next batch scheduled. 

    Weather Conditions

    Its too early to predict weather for 2024. We will share updates once we have reliable information. 


    Myths and Facts about Fireflies and Rain correlation

    Since June 14, 2023 we observed that lot of people are believing lot of Copy-Paste based websites spreading incorrect information about the correlation between rains and Fireflies, hence we would like to take this opportunity to express our experience and things we practically learn in past 12 years. Rain can have both positive and negative effects on fireflies in India. 

    Positive effects of rain on Fireflies sighting 

    • Increased Firefly Activity: Fireflies are known to be more active during and after rain showers. The moisture in the air and on the ground can stimulate firefly mating behaviors, leading to more visible displays of their bioluminescent flashes.
    • Enhanced Glowing: Rainfall can make the environment more humid, which can enhance the visibility of firefly light displays. The moisture in the air can scatter and amplify their bioluminescent glow, making it more captivating to observe.

    Negative effects of rain of Fireflies sighting

    • Storm Risk: Heavy rainfall that starts generally in month of July can wash away firefly eggs, larvae, and pupae, impacting their population size. It can also disrupt their breeding habitats and lead to the loss of suitable breeding grounds.
    • Human Eye Limitations: During heavy rain or thick fog, the visibility of firefly flashes may decrease significantly. The raindrops or fog can scatter or block the light, making it harder to spot fireflies.

    Ever wondered why fireflies mate and glow in certain weather conditions? Well, science has some cool explanations for that! First off, fireflies have a unique way of attracting mates. They use their flashing lights to communicate and find the right partner. Each firefly species has its own special flashing pattern, like a secret code for romance.

    When it comes to the weather, fireflies have their preferences too. They like it warm and a bit humid. So, you'll see them getting all flirty during the warmer months when the temperature is just right and the air is a bit moist. But that's not all! The length of daylight and darkness also plays a role. Fireflies have their own schedule for getting busy, and they time their flashes to match. It's like they have their own disco party in sync with the day and night.. All these mating behaviors and weather preferences have important reasons. They help fireflies find the perfect mate and ensure their species survives and thrives. It's all about passing on those good genes and keeping the firefly population alive.

    So next time you see those magical glowing bugs, remember they're not just putting on a light show for fun. They're on a mission to find love and continue the firefly legacy. Pretty cool, right?

    So if you live here in Mumbai where Mischief Treks can take you to witness this magical phenomenon, But we at Mischief Treks wont take you along if you are not capable to understand what's written on this page.
