TREKFIT ADVENTURES

One Day Trek to Kothaligad

Kothaligad is a small fort situated to the east of Karjat near Karjat-Murbad Road in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is a famous trek in the Karjat area, because of its small height and easy climbing. It is also known as the Fort of Peth because of its vicinity to Peth village at its base

Note:-There are no difficult trails/rock patches which can endanger your life. Its a simple trek and can be completed by everyone.

This is an offbeat trek and hence better to do with expert leaders of Trekfit .

Nestled in the famous Bhimashankar wildlife sanctuary near Karjat, is a small marvel of architecture called Kothaligad.

Kothaligad, also known as Peth fort, rises to a maximum altitude of 2,033 ft. and was primarily used as a watchtower & ammunition depot by the ruling armies. The strategic location of the hill provides a commanding view of Padargad, Malanggad, Siddhagad, Chanderi fort, Bhimashankar & Matheran plateau in clear weather.

Located less than 100 kms from both Mumbai and Pune and well connected by road and railways, Kothaligad is the ideal all-season trek for anyone looking for a quick getaway from the bustling city life.
