Lohagad, Mountain fortress in Pune district, India.
The stone fortress rises 1033 meters above sea level in the Western Ghats mountain range, with four gates marking its principal entrances.
The fort changed hands multiple times between the Marathas and Mughals, with Shivaji Maharaj capturing it in 1648 and reclaiming it in 1670.
A second-century BC inscription in Jain Brahmi script found in a cave at the fortress indicates early religious activities at the site.
Visitors can reach the fort through a paved road from Malavli railway station, with entry fees of 30 rupees per person.
The fortress extends into a fortified spur called Vinchukada, forming a distinct shape that resembles a scorpion tail against the mountain landscape.
