Best trek destination, must take plenty of water and food with you, good grip shoes are must, to reach you need 2-3 hrs depending on from which village you start. So plan properly before coming.
The only main attraction is kave chi vihir other than that it is for enjoying the trek.
Beautiful in Monsoon and Winter.
Tough. You have to trek more than 2 hrs to reach the peak.
You can get food at the top as there is a family who stays there.
You can have tea, breakfast or meal.
Plastic is totally banned at fort.
At the peak, a beautiful well called “Kavechi Vihir”
You can step down in the beautiful well.
Note. Must hire local guide as there is huge jungle.
Had a wonderful experience at Kamalgad fort. We started the trek at around 12 and reached the fort around 2.15 pm and while descending it took us half the time. The trek path is narrow and their are arrows and ribbons on the path for directions. Locals at the top provide the food which was really tasty. The fort is surrounded by water from all sides as the dams are nearby which makes the view from the top superb. Trek in group is recommended.
2 routes take up the fort, kondivali village route- tough route take 2.30mins and chandane village take 1.30mins. Beautiful panaromic views of panchagani mahabaleshwar hillstations and dhom dam reservoir to one side of the fort and koleshwar, kenjalgad, raireshwar to another side. Fort is located in the forest. Nothing much to see just a step well which is geological wonder carved in volcanic erupted rocks, it is 40-60ft deep inside.
"Kamalgad Fort" is an adventure and Full of Forest Trekking journey.
Very Beautiful view from Up of the fort,
You can see Rayreshwar Fort, Kenjalgad Fort, and Navara Navri Shikar. Also Beautiful Dom dam water view.
One of the most beautiful things is " Kavechi Vihir". Incredibly View from inside this.
Before going here first find out the best route to go up. We were lost in the forest. So take a guide from local people.
At a top of the Mountain, one family is living.
They provide you with water, Lemon juice, Buttermilk at a very cheap price.
This is a nice trek after you have done few beginners trek. Elevation of the profile is around 600 m and total trek distance is approx 10 kms to and from. One will complete the trek in approx 5 hours. Please note you will not find anyone during the trek. Place is bit isolated. It's advised you go with some group or take a guide. Trek starts from base village Tupewadi. It can be done during day time. Many parts of the trek is covered with trees. Some 2-3 kms road patch is very good before Tupewadi village. Overall nice experience.
Less crowded and serene place to view dams and Krishna Valley 😇 There is nothing much on fort but once you reach on top then you'll mesmerized with breathtaking view.
There is a home on foot of Balekilla on fort. At the entry point from Vasote village there is water source too.
This fort is situated at 4000 ft height from sea level.
About route -
If you start from Vasole village base then there is last home at base. Trekking starts with this place then you will have to follow arrows drawn on entire path may it on stone, trees. There is 1.5 hrs of Trekking effort for intermediate level trekker to reach fort.
Once you reach Kanifnath temple then consider you reached the fort. Plain area will start, walk for another 15 mins walk then there is one home and farm land. Take right turn alongside of that home. Another patch of dense forest will start till base of Balekilla.
Place with serene beauty of nature. Kavechi vihir is one of the special features of kamalgad. It is moderate level fort for trekking. One day return spot from Pune
