Dhak Bahiri is dedicated to God Bhairi, the god of Thakur Adivasis. It is said that Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj once visited these religious caves of God Bhairi and gifted a golden plate to the god.

The cave has plenty of its little secrets. There are utensils in the caves which can be used for cooking. After using the utensils one has to clean the utensils and keep were they. People say that if any one tries to steal the utensils or take them away he/she dies. The temple is highly religious places were ladies or females are not allowed.

The trek in itself is rather exciting; situated in the base village of Sandshi of Raigad District. Dhak Bhairi is an extremely hard trek with its height of 2700 feet i.e. 823 meters. The final traverse is truly dangerous and the climb up the rock cut steps adds thrill to the final ascend to caves.

Thefort has 3 – 4 water cisterns on the top and a cave with two water cisterns. Duke’s Nose, Manikgad, Rajmachi, Bhimashankar, Karnala are visible from the top of the fort.
