Purandar Fort Trek

Purandar Fort Trek

Purandar is a fort in the Pune district of Maharashtra. Purandar and Vajragad are twin forts. Purandar is the larger of the two and is situated at a height of 4472 feet from the sea level. The top of the fort presents a very scenic view of its twin fort Vajragad. Purandar Fort Pune is taller than the Vajragad fortification and lies on its western side. When you arrive at the stronghold, we suggest looking at the ancient temples in and around the territory. The head of the fort presents a breathtaking vista of its twin Vajragad and other hilltops.

It is popular among adventure buffs and sightseers as well as a place of great historical significance. The fortification has withstood a few authentic achievements. It has been referenced a few times in the uprising of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and the Maratha Empire against Adil Shahi, the Mughals, and the Bijapur Sultanate. The historical backdrop of the slope stronghold of Purandar follows back to the eleventh century during the Yadava Dynasty. From that point onward, the Fort was taken over by the Persians, and later by the fourteenth century, the post was given to Maloji Bhosale, grandfather of Shivaji Maharaj. The Fort is likewise the birthplace of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's son, Sambhaji Maharaj. Right now, the fortification is in ruins. Be that as it may, this engineering magnum opus's great magnificence in the core of Western Ghats keeps on pulling several sightseers consistently. Along with its historical importance, the post and its environmental factors attract visitors in huge numbers for the end of the week escapes, nature exploration, and adventure activities.
