★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fantastic jungle trek , short but bit tough.Recommended to go in a group as not many people visit.Ideal time is Winter or Monsoon.Do not go to the left when you reach the middle of the fort, take right till you reach the caves.There is an amazing cliff at the right.

trek won't take more than 40min for a trekker to climb, very beautiful view of valley and Tail-baila from top, from mulshi road its 75 kms from pune but last 18 kms near ghangad is little offroad you can say. Ekole is the base village, food ( Pithla-bhakri) is available at ekole, villagers are very helpful.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent short trek for beginners , located near to lonavala , easy to reach by your own car , public transport is difficult..
Views from top are just amazing
It's not much popular trek and hence it is not much crowded so you can visit here if you want to spend some peaceful time at the top ??
Couple of patches can be difficult in the monsoon season , so one needs to be utmost careful

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing place for short treks. Its about 90 kms from Pune. We went through Mulshi Road. Road condition is bad but very much scenic. So if you are ok with bad roads then this is a must visit place. On the way you can halt at Kundalika Valley View point. You can get food at base village on request. But be aware its a very remote place. Better carry your own stuff.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Easy trek. The trek starts from Base village named Ekola. The route from tamhini road to ekola village is real disaster but goes through nature. The trek is for beginners. It requires at the most 1 hour to reach the top. There is a Maarkhind at left side near main entrance of the fort. To reach near the flag, you have to climb up the ladder and walk sideways to the left.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Small fort n trek but very feature rich. Hike till fort entrance is very easy. Ladder and post ladder is easy too but just have to be more cautious. Post that a small rockpatch but easy after being cautious. Views from the top are superb.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing place to trek.
Difficulty - Very Easy
Should take a maximum of an hour and half to reach on top .
There are a few sections which are thrilling but there are support structures to hold (ropes) and move ahead.
Open car park available at the base village , the roads are a bit bad only for a small section , rest is good .
