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.
