Pratapgad Fort Trek
About this trek
Pratapgad was built in 1656 on a spur below Mahabaleshwar, guarding the pass down into the Konkan. Three years later the meeting between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Afzal Khan took place below its walls, and the battle that followed made the fort's name. The Bhavani temple on top, the bastions and the view over the Konkan are the walk's reward. The climb from the road is short, mostly on steps, and the day leaves time for the strawberry farms and the market at Mahabaleshwar on the way home.
