This is one of the best trek near Mumbai and Pune. At Rajmachi - Shrivardhan and Manoranjan can also be considered as two separate forts. There is one small plateau in between them. A temple of 'Bhairoba' is very beautiful. Shrivardhan is 'Bale killa' of Rajmachi. It is almost 3000 feet high. But it was mainly built to keep watch on Konkan area. Manoranjan is 2700 feet high. Manoranjan consists of strong walls, 3 doors and many water tanks.
