Perched on a hilltop at an elevation of about 3500 feet above sea level, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding Pavana Valley and the backwaters of Pavana Dam.

The triangular fort

Not much difficult to trek but better if you visit after monsoon because of greenery. Tung, Visapur, Lohagad forts are visible from top. Panoramic view of Pawna lake is perfect for photography
