Overview
- Harihar fort / Harshagad is a fort located in the Triambakeshwar mountain range against the huge Vaitarna dam.
- It appears to be rectangular in shape from its base village, Nirgunpada, and is located on top of a triangular massif with all the three sides being vertical and hence naturally fortified.
- There is only one access to the fort through a 200 feet high rock cut staircase inclined at 80 degrees. It is one of the most adventure trek in rainy season which doubles up the adventure. It takes 2-3 hours to reach the top from base village.
- The ascents are truly wonderful – picturesque beauty of the valley playing hide and seek as we gain height.
- Each turn that we take gives a different glimpse of the surrounding paddy fields, the winding Vaitarna, the distant hills veiled by thin clouds. The climb to the fort has intermittent plateaus which offer a resting place to the trekkers and a chance to breathe in the beauty of the silent valley.
