Shrivardhan Fort

Maharashtra, India

Shrivardhan Fort, part of the Rajmachi fortification along with Manaranjan Fort, is located in Rajmachi village about 9 km from Lonavala in Maharashtra's Sahyadri mountain range.

Perched at around 900 meters (3000 feet) above sea level, it was likely used as a watchtower for the Sahyadri region. The fort features a large defensive rampart but lacks significant internal structures. There are two water tanks at the top, one with an iron pillar, and a cave from the Buddhist period is nearby. The fort offers stunning views of the surrounding valleys and hills, making it a popular spot for trekkers and nature lovers.

The trek to Shrivardhan Fort can be approached from Tungarli village, which offers an easier path, or Karjat-Kondivade, which involves a denser forest trail. Visitors can also explore nearby attractions like Manaranjan Fort, Lohagad Fort, and Bedsa Caves. The fort has historical importance tied to the Maratha Empire and is a serene place to experience nature and history combined.
