Book my trek and tours invites you to the Korigad fort trek 2025

Korigad (also called Koraigad, Koarigad, or Kumwarigad) is a hill fort located about 20 km (12 mi) south of Lonavla in the Pune district, Maharashtra, India. Its date of construction is not known but likely predates 1500. It is about 923 m above sea level.[1] The planned township of Aamby Valley is built over the fort's southern and eastern foothills. The closest village is Peth Shahpur, about 1 km (0.62 mi) north of the fort.

History: This fort was forcibly taken over into his kingdom by Chhatrapati Shivaji along with the forts of Lohagad, Visapur, Tung, and Tikona in 1657. On March 11, 1818, Colonel Prother tried to take over this fort, but even after a prolonged siege, he could not make any headway. Finally, on 14 March, by igniting the stored ammunition by means of a loose cannonball, he succeeded, and this fort went to the British.
The fort is located about 923 m (3,028 ft) above sea level, rising over 200 m (660 ft) higher than the neighboring valleys. To the east, there lie two artificial lakes part of the Aamby Valley project which later drain into the Mulshi reservoir. There are two lakes on the top of the fort.
