We are group of 5 friends. We are planned to visit some places nearby Pune. We decided to visit Lohgad fort since it's very beautiful during rainy season and now I am confirming that our decision was very good and we have really enjoyed our visit to Lohgad on 28th July 2018.

We started from Hinjewadi, phase 2 and we have taken the backside route instead of Pune highway. We traveled through Hinjewadi-Mulashi-Pavana dam and we reach Lohgad around 12:30 pm. Then we started treak and we have spent around 3 to 4 hrs on Lohgad.

It's wonderful and memorable visit !!

Visited this place in the month of Julh. The monsoon was at its peak and it added to the USP of this fort. The problem with this place is same as with most places easily approachable from Mumbai/Pune which is too much rush.
The steps are steep and at some places are quite dangerous to climb on. Wearing a pair of trekking shoes is advisable.

You can go on the top of the fort and click some really good pictures with great views in the back drop.

But one thing that I would like to bring into everyone's notice is the tar road that reaches to the base of the fort. Well the condition of the road was nice given the heavy monsoon witnessed but they are very steep. At some places there are turns which might scare you. So of you are planning to drive your vehicle to the base of the fort, make sure you are skilled driver and have enough fuel because a lot of it going to burn.
I would also suggest a check up of your vehicle before you head to the fort.

It is fun as long as you can control your vehicle and manage the steep turns.

There will also be rookie drivers who might spoil the fun with their irresponsible driving.

Have a safe trip!!
Cheers!!!

Situated at the Western Ghats at an elevation of 1,033 m (3,389 ft) above sea level, the Lohagad is a part of the larger Visapur fort. The range divides the basins of the Indrayani and Pavana rivers. Lohagad overlooks the Pavana reservoir, located to the south of the mountain. The hill extends to the northwest to a fortified spur, called Vinchukata (Scorpion's tail) Lohagad fort doesnt offer much other than a nice trek, a spectacular views once you are at the top. There are innumerable monkeys so it is better not to carry eatables.

We hired a local taxi to take us to Lohaghad and Baja Caves. He charged us Rs 3000 for 5 hours in a 7 seater Ertiga. The road is quite steep and bad in certain stretches, it's advisable not to take your own car. As we went there during the monsoons the steps are quite slippery so please wear proper shoes with a good grip. The view from the top is simply fantastic. It's extremely windy so an umbrella is of no use. The reverse waterfall is truly a unique natural phenomenon which occurs only during the monsoon season due to the wind condition.

We went early morning to avoid weekend rush. The steps are steep but its non slippery and safe. We loved the water gushing on the stairs while you navigate through it. The top is very windy.
