About Kothaligad

Kothaligad Fort, also known as Peth Fort, stands tall amidst the Sahyadri mountain range in Maharashtra, India. Located near the town of Karjat, this historical site offers not only a glimpse into the region's rich past but also stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The fort's strategic positioning atop a cone-shaped hill made it a crucial stronghold during ancient times, serving as a lookout point and a defense structure. Its sturdy stone walls and bastions still bear the marks of battles fought centuries ago. Trekking enthusiasts are drawn to Kothaligad for its relatively easy yet exhilarating trekking trails that wind through lush greenery and rocky terrain. The pinnacle of the fort rewards adventurers with breathtaking vistas of the Western Ghats and the nearby villages. For history buffs and nature lovers alike, Kothaligad Fort stands as a testament to Maharashtra's rich heritage and natural beauty.
