Situated at Delhi – Haryana border, Mangar Bani holds the extensions of 'Aravallis', which are the oldest geological structures on earth, an ancient mountain range which is now in its ruins.
The area, be it in ruins, holds some timeless treasures. Ancient artefacts, rock art and even water bodies from old times are one of the highlights in the area.
Mangar, once a victim to rampant, unregulated mining, started seeing some rock lovers who saw the potential and started rock climbing in the area. They established numerous new lines and as the community saw new interests and young potential, a book was published by a rock enthusiast
“ Mohit Oberoi” with the help of his co-climbers and other veteran climbers from the community.
“Guide to Rock Climbing in and around Delhi,” which encompasses, in detail, all the trad routes known in that area was published as an effort to share a brand new playground (consisting of more than 50 lines) for the rock enthusiasts residing in and around Delhi.
