Trek Overview

About Kothaligad Fort

The monsoons are a great time to go trekking in Maharashtra. The state has some of the best trekking trails in the country, and they are even more beautiful during the rains. One of the best monsoon treks in Maharashtra is the Kothaligad Monsoon Trek. It is situated at Bhimasankar wildlife santuary in karjat at an altitude of 3100 feet above sea level. The Kothaligad trek is famous for Kothaligad fort, also called the Peth fort because village Peth is located at the base of this fort. The defense fort of Kothaligad was used to store ammunition.

The Kothaligad Monsoon Trek is a moderate to difficult level trek that takes you through some of the most picturesque landscapes in the state. The trail starts from the base village of Ambewadi and passes through dense forests, waterfalls, and streams. It then climbs up to the top of Kothaligad, where you can get stunning views of the surrounding area.

The focal attractions of the Kothaligad trek route include the two caves, the first of a Goddess and the other Bhairoba cave with sculpted pillars. The view of windmills and sunrise from the pinnacle of the peak are other prime attractions. Another highlight of the trek is the presence of beautiful fireflies along the trail in the pre-monsoon season. Kothaligad fort is around 100 km from Mumbai and 127 km from Pune. Both the routes are well connected by road and railways.

The unique thumb like structure of the fort, well safeguarded cannons, stunning panoramic view of surrounding, carved pillars in the fort temple, presence of waterfalls, reverse waterfalls sometime due to heavy winds are the major attractions of Kothaligad trek.

Improvements need to be done: Please extend the timing of waterfall. No body wants to spend only half and hour in waterfall after making so many efforts to reach there. Try to make a group of 10-12 people with all your volunteers. Atleast people will know whom to follow. Introduction part was not that interesting as you just ask their name. No background of their profession and interest in trekking. Few people travel in group to find someone who can be a good travel partner. If you taking a trip at night. You should understand not all people are teenagers. Few of them are coming with you after finishing the office hours. Let them take rest rather than cheering up so that they can save their energy for the trek. Food was really good. Keep it up Volunteers were friendly Overall it was good.

It was a day of exhilarating experiences and breathtaking landscapes as I embarked on a thrilling trek with the LiveB4YouDie Trekking Group. From the moment we set foot on the trail until the very end, every step was filled with joy, and a sense of accomplishment. Our journey began early in the morning as we gathered at the meeting point. The LiveB4YouDie team greeted us with warm smiles, introductions, and a thorough briefing about the day's itinerary and safety measures. Right from the start, it was evident that we were in good hands with experienced guides and enthusiastic fellow trekkers. The trek tested our physical endurance, but the LiveB4YouDie team ensured that the pace was comfortable for everyone. They motivated us with encouraging words, and whenever someone needed a break, they patiently waited, making sure no one was left behind. The support and encouragement from the group members created a strong sense of unity, and we felt like one big family. During our journey, we encountered various challenges, including rocky terrains, steep ascents, and slippery trails. But overcoming each obstacle brought a sense of achievement that is hard to put into words. The LiveB4YouDie team's expertise in guiding us through these difficulties was truly commendable. The highlight of the trek was undoubtedly reaching the summit. The panoramic views from the top were awe-inspiring, and it felt like we were on top of the world. The sense of accomplishment and the bond we had formed as a group made the experience more meaningful. The LiveB4YouDie team surprised us with a delicious and well-deserved feast of local cuisine, which we enjoyed while sharing laughter, and swapping stories. LiveB4YouDie Trekking Group had given us an unforgettable adventure, and we had made memories that will last a lifetime. I am grateful to have shared this experience with such an amazing group of people and talented guides. Thank you, LiveB4YouDie, for making this trek a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I am already looking forward to the next adventure with this incredible team! Until then, farewell. With gratitude, Mahendra #sssuuupppeeerrr
