Hi guys sorry to hear that.. i planned for a trip already. I recieved a mail like this!!! Pardon me for giving the wrong info. even I didnt know it was a fraud mail!
neowebarts, you should not post such unclarified information on public sites like these.pls be more careful about that.
sure... will make sure next time
Can any one pls tell how to reach this place
As 4youandMe pointed, if this is the Logahad fort in pune, then the info is here...
Brief Info abt Lohagad Fort: This fort is 10km from Lonavala (100 Kms from Mumbai and 60 Kms from Pune). It belongs to the period of Chattrapati Shivaji's reign and was used for keeping prisoners in the year 1564.
In 1670, Shivaji Maharaj won this fort and in the year 1751, Gaikwad and Dabhade family were incarcerated in this fort. The entrance to this fort is impressive and is aptly called 'Delhi Gate'. There are three gates one after the other.
How To Reach: Train or Road: Alight at malavli station which is the next station after lonavala. Lonavala is midway between mumbai and pune. Cross the mumbai pune express highway via overhead bridge and turn walking towards mumbai direction to bhaje village which is approx 2 Kms. From bhaje walk towards lohagad. After a gruelling but scenic trek of about 2 and half hours (7 KMS) you reach the foothills of the fort. The small village there houses couple of small hotels. It can be a pretty hectic trek for 1 day if you dont have your own vehicle. Take plenty of water in summers(Feb to June). Best time to visit is between July and December.
