Avandha Fort
Avandha Fort, also known as Aundha Fort, is a hill fort located in Aundhewadi village between Nashik and Ahmadnagar in Maharashtra. The fort sits around 4,300 feet above sea level on the Kalsubai mountain range and served historically as a strategic military base during the Maratha period.
It was originally built in the 14th century and has changed hands multiple times, including capture by the Mughals in the late 17th century and later by the British. The fort is known for its challenging climb with steep rocky patches and narrow holds, offering panoramic views of the surrounding Sahyadri ranges and nearby forts.
While much of the fort is in ruins, rock-cut cisterns, caves, and remnants of ancient structures remain. It is a favored destination for trekkers, history enthusiasts, and nature lovers, with the best visits taking place between October and February when the weather is pleasant and the landscape lush.
