नमस्कार गिरिमित्रांनो...

मागील वर्षापासून गिरिमित्र संमेलनातर्फे प्रस्तरारोहण आणि हिमालयीन मोहीमांसाठी गिर्यारोहण संस्थाना प्रोत्साहनपर आर्थिक मदत देण्यात येत आहे. यावर्षीदेखील हे अशीच मदत दिली जाणार आहे. कृपया सर्व संस्थांनी त्यांच्या मोहीमांच्या माहितीचा अर्ज २३ जुलै पर्यंत पाठवावी.
(अर्जाचा नमुना सोबत जोडला आहे.)

सूचना -
१. गिरिमित्र संमेलनातर्फे देण्यात येणारी आर्थिक मदत ही पूर्णत: प्रोत्साहनपर स्वरूपाची असून मोहिमेचा खर्च किती आहे याच्याशी त्याचा काहीही संबध नसेल.
२. आर्थिक मदत ही मोहीम पूर्ण झाल्यानंतरच देण्यात येईल.
३. अधिक मोहीमांच्या माहिती संस्थेच्या लेटरहेडवर सविस्तर माहिती देवू शकता.
४. आर्थिक मदत ही केवळ मोहीमेच्या यशापयशावर अवलंबून नसून त्याचबरोबर मोहिमेची काठीण्य पातळी, मोहिमेतील नाविन्य, आरोहण पद्धती, मोहिमेची आखणी यावरदेखील अवलंबून असेल.
५. निकषानुसार एखादी मोहीम इतर मोहीमांपेक्षा वरचढ ठरत असेल तर संबधित वर्षातील संपूर्ण मदत ही अनेक मोहीमांऐवजी एकाच मोहिमेस देखील देण्यात येवू शकते. तसेच कोणतीही मोहीम निकषांवर उतरत नसेल तर त्यावर्षीची आर्थिक मदत देण्यात येणार नाही याची नोंद घ्यावी.
६. मोहिमेच्या सत्यासत्येबद्दल पूरक छायाचित्रांची / कागदपत्रांची गरज भासल्यास निवड समितीला ती सादर करणे बंधनकारक असेल.
७. आर्थिक मदत देण्याचा निर्णय हा  पूर्णत: गिरिमित्र संमेलनाने नियुक्त केलेल्या निवड समितीवर असून तो सर्वांसाठी बंधनकारक असेल.


आपल्या सर्व डोंगर मित्रांपर्यंत ही माहिती पोहचवणे.

(Please check attachment for application form)

Please Note:                
1. This is not a competition. The financial assistance to be given by Grirmitra Sammelan is merely an incentive for expeditions and the total cost of an expedition has no bearing on the ‎quantum of assistance to be provided.             
2. The financial assistance would be given only after the completion of the expedition.
3. The expedition need not be successful for availing the assistance. Factors like difficulty level of the expedition, status of peak/pinnacle (unclimbed/climbed) and climbing techniques used etc will be considered.                        
4. There is no explicit mandate for the assistance to be given for a certain ‎number of expeditions every year. If one expedition is found to be far superior than others, the entire resources sanctioned for a period can be given to it, even though there might be other expeditions vying for it. Similarly, if all the expedition entries are not upto the desired criteria or unsatisfactory, no assistance shall be given for the period.                     
5. It is mandatory to submit the supporting documents, photographs, videos, etc and other proofs if demanded by the committee.

Fort: Harishchandragad Type: Hill fort Height: 4671ftGrade: Hard Endurance: Tough Harishchandragad Situated On The Boundaries Of Three Districts Namely Pune,A.Nagar & Thane Can Be Trek Down From Number Of Routes .Khireshwar Tolar Khind Route & Pachnai Route Are The Two Normally Used Routes . While Junnar Darwaja & Nalichi Vaat Route Are The Route Rarely Used. Among These All Route NALICHI VAAT  Route Is The Toughest One.Nalichi Vaat Route Covered With Monster Size Loose Rocks .On This Route There Are ThreeMAJOR Rock Patches Are Involved Makes This Trek Most Demanding Trek In Maharashtra. Places To Visit:Scaling Down Harishchandragad From Nalichi Vaat Itself Is Big Thrill.

Along With This We Are Going To Visit Following Places On Fort. History The fort is quite ancient. Remnants of Microlithic man have been discovered here. The various Puranas (ancient scriptures) like Matsyapurana, Agnipurana and Skandapurana include many references about Harishchandragad. Its origin is said to have been in 6th century, during the rule of Kalchuri dynasty. The citadel was built during this era. The various caves probably have been carved out in the 11th century. In these caves are idols of Lord Vishnu. Though the cliffs are named Taramati and Rohidas, they are not related to Ayodhya. Great sage Changdev (one who created the epic "Tatvasaar"), used to meditate here in 14th century. The caves are from the same period. The various constructions on the fort and those existing the surrounding region point to the existence of diverse cultures here. The carvings on the temples of Nageshwar (in Khireshwar village), in the Harishchandreshwar temple and in the cave of Kedareshwar indicate that the fort belongs to the medieval period, since it is related to Shaiva, Shakta or Naath.

We निसर्गाच्या पाऊलखुणा.. Have organized a Trek to Kothaligad on 27th and 28th June 2015.. Little information about Kothaligad:- Kothaligad is a small Fort (3100 ft) situated to the east of Karjat near Karjat-Murbad Road in Maharashtra. It is one of the famous treks 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. There is a small temple and large cave at the base and a chimney like tunnel to the top of the fort. This pinnacle is carved from inside forming a staircase reaching the top. The cave and the temple carvings date back to the 13th century. Not much is known about the history until the 18th century. Then later on, on November 2, 1817, it was recaptured by the Marathas under the leadership of Bapurao who belonged to the generation after Bajirao. It was recaptured by the British, on December 30, 1817, the very next month, under Captain Brooks. The British had the fort till 1862 as an outpost for vigilance on the surrounding valley and the hills all around it.The locals say that this is not actually a fort but a sort of lighthouse from where the directions were given to know the advancements of the enemy. in fact it can be called a watch tower to keep a vigil on the Mawal area in the greater province of the Marathas. It is absolutely breathtaking to climb and to have a feeling of the engineering marvel being crafted when there were no engineers like today or even no PWD departments as well. only the foresightedness of the Maratha warrior has been behind the development of the watch tower standing atop the small but sturdy hillock. the stone is a sing...

Dear Friends we invite you all for Tour to Amboli Ghat & Gokak Falls on 15 & 16 August 2015.Leaving 14 Aug 2015'Friday Night Amboli is a hill station in sawantwadi ,south Maharashtra, India. At an altitude of 690 m it is the last hill station before the coastal highlands of Goa  and a relatively unexplored one. Beauty of Amboli Ghat can't be Described in Words. Amboli lies in the Sahayadri Hills of Western India, one of the world's "Eco Hot-Spots"and it therefore abounds in a variety of fairly unique flora & fauna. In the hills of Amboli village lies the source of the Hiranyakeshi river, and an ancient Shiva temple (called Hiranyakeshwar) exists at the cave where the water emerges. The main attraction for tourists is the incredibly high rainfall (7 m average per year) and the numerous waterfalls and mist during the monsoons. Legend has it that there are 108 Shiva temples in and around Amboli of which only a dozen have been uncovered, one as recently as 2005. Amboli is quiet, unpolluted and the local residents are good natured and helpful. Gokak falls : The Gokak Falls is a waterfall located on the Ghataprabha River in Belagavi district of Karnataka, India. The waterfall is six kilometers away from Gokak. After a long winding course, the Ghataprabha river takes a leap of 52 metres (171 ft) over the sand-stone cliff amidst a picturesque gorge of the rugged valley, resembling Niagara Falls on a smaller scale. The waterfall is horse shoe shaped at the crest, with a flood breadth of 177 metres (581 ft). During rainy season, the thick reddish brown water sweeps far over the brink of the cliff with a dull roar that can be heard from some distance. There is a hanging bridge across the river, measuring about 201 metres (659 ft). Its height above the rock bed is 14 metres (46 ft). There is an old electricity generation station and electricity was generated here for the first time in 1887. The places that we will be visiting are: 1) Amboli Waterfall Main attracti... Read more

About the Tour :  Korigad fort is located about 20 Kms away from Lonavla, in Pune district. It is about 929 m above sea level. There are two routes to reach to the top of Korigad, one from village PethShahpur and other one is from Ambavne village. Route from Pethshahpur is easier than the route from Ambavne village. We have to climb nearly 510 steps while going from Pethshahpur route. The route starting from the Bhairavnath Temple at Pethshahpur takes us to the top within 45-50 minutes and which enters through the Ganesh gate. Route starting from Ambavne village is very much slippery and it takes us to the fort through Ambavane gate. 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 14 March, 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. A temple to its patron goddess Koraidevi also exists along with several smaller temples dedicated to Vishnu and Shiva. Koraidevi 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). Its massive gate is also intact. Several ruins of older structures within the fort still exist. We can also see some of the cannons lying on the fort.

Situated along the Mumbai-Goa highway, it is at a distance of about 10 km from the city of Panvel.  It is an absolute beginner's trek amidst the natural flora and fauna of the enclosed sanctuary. The relative ease of this trek also provides an excellent opportunity for parents to introduce their children to trekking and nature. The trek begins at the entrance of the bird sanctuary on a well-defined road and winds through the forest. Eventually, it leads to an uphill track under thick vegetation. There are multiple routes inside the sanctuary that lead to the main trail up to the mountain and offer a variety of fauna, both in enclosure and in the wilderness.  The trek to the top is a little challenging but thoroughly enjoyable and the fort provides a comfortable perch to rest and have lunch. After a final walk up to the bastion, one is presented with a splendid 360 degree view of the surrounding Raigad district. A 125 ft high basalt pillar sticks out like a thumb at the centre of the peak. It is clearly visible from far away on all the sides. ---------- Trek schedule : Meet at 07:20 AM (Sharp) at Panvel Railway Station on Saturday 27 june 2015 Please ensure punctuality.

1.ABOUT PEB FORT:Peb is very close to famous hill station - Matheran. Located in the same mountain range as Matheran, 4 Km on west side of Neral on Mumbai - Pune highway, Peb fort is a enjoyable trek for a day's outing.The fort derives it name from the Goddess 'Pebi'; Peb is also called 'Vikatgad' for its supposed shape of the Elephant Headed God, 'Ganesh'. The trek to the top involves surmounting a small rock patch and a ladder. The fort is famous for its caves which are maintained by disciples of Swami Samartha and the meditation chambers carved out from the rock inside the mountain. To get inside the meditation chamber, one has to crawl through a narrow passage in the rock and then climb down into the meditation chamber. 2. HISTORY:It is assumed that this fort derived its name Peb from the 'Goddess Pebi' at the base of the fort. Historical references clearly indicate that ShivajiMaharaj used the caves on the fort as silos for grain storage. 3. Major Attractions a. Matheran Hill StationMatheran is a Hill Station in the Raigad district in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is a hill station in Karjat Tahsil and is also the smallest hill station in India. It is located on the Western Ghats range at an elevation of around 800 m (2,625 feet) above sea level. It is located around 90 km from Mumbai, and 120 km from Pune. Matheran's proximity to many metropolitan cities makes it a popular weekend getaway for urban residents. b. Nakhind'Nakhind' has a natural rock peak with a cavity in it at the top which is called 'Nedhe' or 'Nosehole; formed by natural erosion. Why is it called as Nakhind? Cause the hill has seems itself like a Human Nose. Nakhind is noted for its gentle slope and dense forest route. From one side of Nakhind we can see Chanderi Pinnacle.This gentle hill is excellent for relaxed, easy walks and nature lovers. It's a good trek in the monsoon or in the winter. c.

1. About Rajmachi:Rajmachi is a fort located near Lonavala.It height from sea level is 2710 feet. It offers an amazing view of the Sahyadrimountains and the backwaters of Shirota Dam. Rajmachi with its two peaks Shrivardhan and Manoranjan, is an ideal destination for trekking. Ruins of forts, water falls, temples and the ancient Buddhist caves on the way beacon the trekker through dense forests presenting a mixture of history and nature which makes Rajmachi a much sought after trekking destination. Trek to Rajmachi during monsoon is most adventurous and challenging. Udhewadi is the base of Rajmachi fort trek. How to reach :Udhewadi is the base of Rajmachi trek and the trek can be started from Tungarli near Lonavala or Kondivade village near Karjat. The route from Tungarli is longer and it will take about 6 hours to reach Rajmachi. Via the Karjat route one can reach Rajmachi in about 5 hours. You may take the Kharvandi village route which is the shortest or Kondana route and visit the budhist caves too. 3. History:The historical Rajmachi fort complex was originally constructed by the Satavahanas. In 1657, ShivajiMaharaj captured this fort along with other neighbouring forts from the Adilshahi ruler of Bijapur. In 1704, the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb captured the fort from the Marathas. However, the Marathas regained its control in 1705. In 1713, ShahuMaharaj handed over Rajmachi fort to KanhojiAngre. Eventually in 1818 with the downfall of the Marathas, the British acquired the control of the Maratha territories including the forts such as Rajmachi.There are two Fortresses on Rajmachi –the taller one in the east is Shrivardhan fort and the other in the west is Manaranjan fort. Rajmachi is a unique fort having wide plateau on all sides of the twin fortresses. There is a rich treasure of historical monuments on Rajmachi, viz. mighty ramparts and walls, gateways, secret exit gates, administrative offices, water storage tanks and reservoirs, residential quarters, temples...

    Wild Trek Adventure ,Invites you All For Roopkund Mystery Lake Trek on 28 Sept 2015 RoopKund Trek The period of operation : April to Dec Rating : medium Highest altitude-: 5029m This universe is full of astonishing miracles, mysteries & conundrums. When we talk about the beauty of 'Devbhoomi' i.e. Uttarakhand, a tiny but aesthetic region in India, the first thing comes into our mind is the alluring beauty of nature with piousness filled in the roots of it. But not everything is unambiguous; some mysteries, remains forever. One of such mysterious place is 'Roopkund'; located at an uninhabited high mountain region of Chamoli district in Uttarakhand, Roopkund Lake is also known as 'The Mystery Lake' or 'The Lake of Skeletons'. The particular place is situated at an expeditious altitude of around 5,029 meters (16,499 ft) in the heart of Himalayan Range. One of the most curious, mysterious and an amazing Trek destination of Rookund is well known throughout the whole world that is surrounded by rock-strewn glaciers and snow clad mountains. The depth of the particular lake is about two meters. There are many alleged stories present in the history of Skeleton Lake. The lake was first found by a British forest guard in 1942. It was also said that the skeletons were of Japanese soldiers who died while crossing that route during World War II.The skeletons are visible in the clear water of the shallow lake during a one-month period, when the ice melts. Along with the skeletons, objects like wooden artifacts, iron spearheads, leather slippers, rings etc. were also found.When a team from National Geographic magazine retrieved about 30 skeletons, flesh was still attached to some of the skeletons. One study identified the skeletons as those of Indians, and not of Japanese. Later studies placed the time of mass death around the 9th century AD (1200 years old). The main story behind its mysterious attraction belongs to 9th century as per the local legends, who alleges that the ki... Read more

    DESCRIPTION hiiii all adventure lovers, We are glad to invite you for one day trek to naneghat 5th  july 2015(sunday) Place: Naneghat Height: 2750 feet Base Village: Vaishakhare District: Thane Difficulty Level: Easy Endurance Level: Medium Region : Malshej Cost : 350/- per head Date : 5th july 2015   Charges including : morning breakfast & tea, travelling from  kalyan  to kalyan and all expertise charges including. General Information:   The first thing we can see after reaching Naneghat is the spacious cave of Naneghat. The ancient carvings, which are seen on the walls of the cave, remind us of the Satvaahan period. Here we find inscriptions in Brahmi script all over the cave. These indicate the magnificent era of the Satvaahans and their generosity. These inscriptions are gradually being destroyed, and only a part of it is remaining. The inscriptions are very precious, and are undergoing destruction due to the negligence of Archeology. The widely spread plateau of Naneghat is an astonishment. To the left the steps besides the cave lead us to the plateau and going to the right lead us to Nana's thumb. After climbing all the way to the bottom of the thumb, when we climb the stairs, we do not expect a big plateau. Thus this route leads directly to a higher altitude quickly, unlike Malshej Ghat, which goes all around the mountains. At the entrance to the Ghat is a big stone-made vessel like thing, in which coins as toll were put. Journey Details:- trek plan CST TO KALYAN 6:04 LOCAL # Code Station Distance Arr.

    Don't you think touching the clouds at highest peak of Sahyadris in Maharashtra It would be an awesome way of kicking off this year's trekking season Come join us for a trek to : "Kalsubai", "Because there are no limits.." Dear OffBeaters, OffBeat Sahyadri invites you for the a trek to Kalsubai via Indore, highest peak of Maharashtra on 28th June 2015, beginning on 27th night from Mumbai. Trivia Type: Peak Height: 1646 meters or 5400 Feet above MSL (Approx) Grade: Difficult Village: Indore. Kalsubai is the highest peak of the Sahyadris in Maharashtra. Kalsubai is situated in Ahmadnagar district at approximately 25-30 Km. South-East of Igatpuri. At the summit is a small temple of Kalsubai, which can seat just three people. At this superb height, the view is just marvellous. The vastly spread out backwaters of Bhandardara attract one's attention from the top. To the north of the mountain range forts such as Ramsej, Harihargad, Brahmagiri, Anjaneri, Ghargad, Bahula, Tringalwadi, Kavnai can be seen. To the east one can spot Aundha, Patta, Bitangad, to the west Alang, Madan, Kulang, Ratangad (south west) and to the south Pabargad, Ghanchakkar, Harishchandragad can be seen. It usually takes 3 hours to reach the top from Bari and 4 from Indore. Soon after leaving Bari, a small stream is crossed followed soon after by a Hanuman temple. The route from behind this temple takes the hiker straight to the summit. There are three iron ladders along this route. There is a well near the last iron ladder as one approaches the top. Since Kalsubai is extremely famous, enough efforts have been taken to make this trek easy. There are steel railings, chains and ladders at places where it is difficult to climb.

    Treks and Trails India - One Day Trek to Kalsubai 5th July - Highest Peak Maharashtra Trek: Kalsubai SumitHeight: 5400 ft Region: Igatpuri Cost: Rs 900.00 per person About Kalsubai: Kalsubai with the height of 1646m [5400Feets] is famous as one of the highest peaks in Maharashtra. Kalsubai lies in the Sahyadri mountain range. This being the highest peak, it commands a beautiful view. Since Kalsubai is extremely famous, enough effort has been made to make this trek easy. There are steel railings, chains and ladders at places where it is difficult to climb. There is a symbolic temple at the top. It is said, that in the ancient times, a lady named "Kalsu" came to nearby Indorey village to work. However, somebody forced her to clean utensils and clean up the residence by force. So she left the place and eventually died at this spot. So comes the name, Kalasubai. A small temple is built here, in her memory. From the top of Mount Kalsubai, one can get great view of the Bhandardara Lake and Wison dam, immediately after the rainy season, the place is covered with variety of flowers. During the months October to November people neighbouring region organize a religious fair at this place. It usually takes three hours to reach the top from Bari. Soon after leaving Bari, a small stream is crossed followed soon after by a Hanuman temple. The route from behind this temple takes the hiker straight to the summit. There are three iron ladders along this route. There is a well near the last iron ladder as one approaches the top. The rest of the route is without water, so it is best to fill water bottles in Bari. It is an easy hike, but parts of it are quite steep in places.

    TreksandTrails India invites you for a One day monsoon trek chota Mahuli on 16 August 2015 Summary: Time: 2.30 hrs from base village Height: 2815ft Grade: Medium Range: Shahapur  District: Thane Contribution: Rs 450 per person. About A good one day Trek near Mumbai, Mahuli is at 2815ft above sea level . It is the highest point in Thane district. A popular trekking choice and a paradise for rock-climbers because of its pinnacles. This mountain complex is actually a group of two or more hills with common cols and pinnacles. The forest surrounding Mahuli has been declared as a sanctuary. The fort has been declared as a protected monument by the Archaeology Survey of India. The huge Mahuli hill can be seen right in front with the three connecting forts on its top. The leftmost fort is Mahuli- Chenderi/Bhandargad. The central one is Mahuli and the leftmost is chota Mahuli. Between the Bhandargad and Mahuli are the famous pinnacles Navra, Narvi and Karavli. One Day Trek to Mahuli can be done if the plan is to go till chota Mahuli. However covering the entire hill including the pinnacles will require you spend a night in the caves. The caves can accommodate approx 12 persons. A trek on the plateau for 45 minutes from chota Mahuli. Then rock climbing a patch of 20 ft approx, only to climb another iron ladder. Then trek for 25 mins (one way) will get you to clear superb view of the 3 pinnacles.

    TreksandTrails, India - trek to Raigad Fort on 15 August 2015 –Saturday Summary: Name: Raigad Type: Hill Height: 2900 feet Grade: Easy Cost: Rs 1200.00 per person About: Raigad Fort is a magnificent hill fortress, situated in the Raigad district of Maharashtra. It lies approximately 125 km away from Pune and serves as one of the major excursion of the city. The fort once served as the capital of Chhatrapati Shivaji, the Great Maratha king, in the 1674. It was around this time only that Shivaji was crowned the King of a Marathi kingdom. Perched at an altitude of 1350 m (4530 ft) above sea level, Raigarh fort falls under the Sahyadri Mountain range of India. The main structures inside the Raigad Fort, which today stands mostly in ruins, comprise of the Queen's Quarters, Public Durbar, Watch Towers, Darwazas (gateways), etc. The Queen's Quarters consist of six chambers in toto, meant for the queen and her attendants. The main place situated inside the fort was largely constructed out of wood. However, apart from its base, made up of pillars, hardly anything else remains. One can also be witness to the ruins of the three watch towers, which were once used to spot any threat from a distance. The main entrance of the Raigarh Fort comprises of the Maha Darwaja, which is colossal and provided protection from the enemies. However, the king as well as his convoy used to move through the Palkhi Darwaja. The three dark and deep chambers, situated to right of the Palkhi Darwaja, are believed to have served as the granaries of the fort. One of the main attractions of Raigad Fort is a magnificent statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji, sited opposite the ruins of the main market avenue. The samadhi (tomb) of Shivaji and his dog Waghya is situated closeby.  Tentative itinerary for the Event is as given below: Meeting Points: Swami Narayan Mandir, Dadar (E) at 10:30pm on Friday or Pick up point near Vashi Main Bridge, at 11:15pm Travel by private vehicle till the base.

It was the glory of Bhor state.Initially, Sudhagad was called as 'Bhorapgad'. During empire of Shivaji Maharaj this fort was named as Sudhagad. This fort is approximately 590 meters in height. Sudhagad is a huge fort. It is called as the replica of Raigad.History :The 'Thanale' excavations in this area are nearly 2200 years old. This shows that Sudhagad may be that much ancient. The construction and the geographical significance indicate that some great rulers might have constructed the fort. According to the Puranas, Sage 'Bhrugu' had stayed here and he had established the temple of Goddess 'Bhorai' on this fort.Sudhagad was included in 'Swarajya' in 1648. It is described in old records as follows:"Malavji Naik Karake put the ladders in Sakharadara. Initially, Jadhav and Saranayak both climbed the fort under the guidance of chieftain 'Maloji Bhosale'. After that Haibatrao climbed the fort. 25 soldiers went ahead and killed the guards. Further the chief of the fort was killed in anguish and the fort was conquered."Shivaji Maharaj renamed Bhorapgad as Sudhagad. Later Sambhaji met Akbar (the rebellious son of Aurangjeb) in the 'Pachchapur village' situated at the base of this fort. Annaji Datto, Balaji Aavji Chitnis, his son Aavji Ballal and Hiroji Pharjand were all important persons in 'Ashta-Pradhan Mandal' of Shivaji Maharaj.

      About  Visapur fort. and bhaje cavesVisapur Fort is larger and also higher than Lohgarh fort. Now in ruins, its history is closely linked with that of Lohagarh. Making use of its higher position, the British troops in 1818 AD set up their canons on Visapur and bombarded Lohagarh, forcing the Marathas to leave the fort. Lohagarh has a long history. It was occupied by many dynasties: Satavahanas, Chalukyas, Rashtrakutas, Yadavas, Bahamanis, Nizamshahis, Mughals and Maarathas. Lohagarh was captured by Shivaji in 1648 AD. but by the Treaty of Purandar he had to surrender it to the Mughals in 1665 AD. It was recaptured by Shivaji in 1670 AD and was used for keeping the treasury. Then on, the fort remained with the Marathas. Ultimately Lohagarh-Visapur was taken over by the British in 1818 AD.Within the fort are caves, cisterns of water. The ruins of a large stone-built house are known as the Peshwa's palace. In addition to a huge carving of Hanuman, there are also several temple dedicated to him scattered all over the place.
