Join us and Mumbai Travellers for trek to Korigad fort, located about 20 km away from Lonavala and 929 m above sea level. Trekkers will be taking route the through Peth Shahpur village, which includes climbing nearly 510 steps.

This fort was incorporated into his kingdom by Shivaji Maharaj, along with the forts of Lohagad, Visapur, Tung and Tikona in 1657. On March 11, 1818, Col. Prother tried to take over this fort but even after a prolonged siege could not make any headway. Finally on March 14, by igniting the stored ammunition by means of a loose cannon ball, he succeeded and this fort was conquered by British.

There are two lakes on the top of the fort, along with a temple dedicated to patron goddess Korai Devi. Korai Devi Temple has been recently renovated and has a 3 feet high Deepmala. The wall of this fort is completely intact and one can walk along its entire perimeter (about 2 km). Several ruins of older structures within the fort still exist, along with it's massive gate.

A perfect blend of history and adventure, this trek seems perfect to us.
