HIDDEN TREKKERS
CELEBRATING INDEPENDENCE
KALSUBAI & RATANGAD FORT
Date:- 15th & 16th August 2015
Trekking spot details:-
Kalsubai
15th August 2015
Type: Hill Forts
District: Ahmednagar
Fort Range: Kalsubai
Grade: Medium
Fort Height: 5400 ft
Base Village: Bari
Details:-
The highest peak in the world is Mount Everest. Likewise, Kalsubai is the highest peak in the Sahyadris in Maharashtra. Kalsubai is the Everest of Maharashtra. To climb this Everest, you need no climbing equipment. To climb this 5400 feet peak, it just takes one day for either a Mumbaikar or a Punekar.
On the top of the peak is a small temple, which can seat at the most 3 people. The vastly spread out backwaters of Bhandardara attracts ones attention from the top. On the north we see the mountain range having forts like Ramsej, Achala, Ahivant, Saptashrungi, Markandya, Dhodap, Rawlya , Jawlya and Koldher. To the east one can spot Aundh, Vishramgad, Alang, Madan, Kulang, Matheran and Harishchandragad. There has, however, been a massive deforestation on this mountain. One can spend around an hour on this peak before starting to descend back to the village.

Type: Hill Forts
District: Nashik
Fort Range: Kalsubai

> Very few forts has a geological feature called as “Nedha” or “needle hole” which means a natural hole in the mountain where you can actually sit in and enjoy the high speed wind.
