Ravlya Fort, Hill fort in Nashik district, India

The stone fortress rises 4,369 feet above sea level on a plateau within the Ajintha Satmal Hill Range, next to Javlya Fort.

The fort changed hands multiple times, with Mughal emperor Shah Jahan gaining control in 1636, followed by Shivaji Maharaj in 1670, before British forces seized it in 1818.

Local adventure groups regularly gather at the fort for trekking expeditions, maintaining connections with the regional heritage through outdoor activities.

Visitors can reach the fort by taking a bus from Nashik to Wani, then proceeding to Babapur village, which serves as the starting point for the trek.

The fortress contains dried water cisterns and building remnants that Captain Mackintosh deliberately damaged to restrict access after the British conquest.
