Trek the Lost route to Ratangad "Konkan Darwaja"
Ratangad, a jewel fort of Sahyadris has conventionally said to have 2 routes. One, from Ratanwadi village via Ganesh Darwaja and the other from Samrad village via Trimbak Darwaja. But hardly anyone knows there was a 3rd route from Konkan side to Ratangad i.e. Ratangad via Konkan Dawaja. This is also called as Kalyan Darwaja. The Konkan Darwaja route got closed because of rockslide that happened many years ago. Currently, there is a 180 ft rock patch just below the Konkan Darwaja. The route remained untouched till a few years ago till the Sahyadri explorer "Arun Sawant Sir" explored this route.
