TREKS N TRAILS's video: HADSAR - NIMGIRI - HANUMANTGAD KHUNTICHI VAAT TOUGHEST TREK SO FAR TREKKING IN SAHYADRIS

Nimgiri and Hanumantgad have been separated by a cleft. The ascend to the forts starts from the middle of these two. Keep ascending towards the electric tower which is across the ground of the primary school. As we proceed to the upper level of the tower we come across broken patches of farms. To the left side away from the path we can see a beautiful idol and remains of a temple. There is also a water tank here. Back on the path as we proceed aheadwe come across many idols and Veerghals and some scriptures carved on stones. Hadsar fort is among the many forts in Junnar region of Pune district which were meant for protection of the ancient commercial trade route from Mawal region to Kalyan via Naneghat. There is a marvelous sculpture design of the bastion and the fort entrance, which is not seen elsewhere. They are all carved from a single rock. Fort Hadsar, also known as Parvatgad, was constructed during the Satvaahanas and was heavily inhabited during that period. It is located on the outskirts of Ahmednagar (known commonly as Nagar) to control the trade route passing through Naneghat. Documentary evidences show that Hadsar was one of the forts exchanged in the 1637 treaty between Shahaji Raje and the Mughals. In 1818 the British forces conquered Junnar and the forts in this region. Like most other cases, main features of this fort were demolished by the british during their attack and later.
