Hi Froggy,
Welcome to Indiamike! About the trekking, there numerous forts/peaks in Sahyadri(Maharashtra) and Karnataka. Just take your pick. Here are few sites to make up your mind Maharashtra deepabhi.tripod.com http://www.trekthesahyadris.com www.trekshitiz.com Karnataka www.dreamroutes.org www.karnatakawildernesstourism .org Don't know about Karnataka, but trek in Dec is very much do-able in Maharashtra. The midday sun could get a bit fierce though. Carry a lot of water. In some places you can find water tanks on top, but the potability of it could be an issue. Start early, pass the midday in shade and descent on afternoon. Cheers Anindya
