This is dome shaped peak near Tungareshwar. The fort does not have any fortification as such but signs of this site are present in the surroundings. There is one small water tank dug out in the rock are present on the western side of the summit. The summit provides beautiful views of Vasai creek and its surrounding areas such as Bhaindar and Vasai cities. Islands covered with mangroves and salt pans near the creek can also be seen from the summit. Tungareshwar hills also add to the beautiful scenery around the fort. The summit as it is seen from ground is not one single peak but two peaks separated by one small gorge. The round shape of the summit gives one an impression of volcano.
