Tikona Fort 2 - Lonavala    Share

Description

Tikona Fort, a dominant hill fortress is a popular one-day trek spot of the Pawana Maval region of the Konkan. The real Marathi name of the fort is Vitandgad, but it gets its more famous name from the triangular shape it is built-in. Situated at a height of 3500 feet, the fort has high fortifications, large doorways, seven water tanks with clean water and a spectacular view from its topmost bastion. The trek from the village of Tikona Peth to the top of the hill is an ideal getaway for the adventurers at heart. After crossing several caves, temples and water tanks, the route brings you to the edge of the extended parapet from where you can take in the fantastic beauty of the surroundings. The fortress and its pride is a paradise for the photography-lovers.
