Parasgad Fort, Medieval fort in Belgaum, Karnataka, India.

The fort stands on a hilltop with steep rocky sides and spans 500 meters from north to south, featuring ancient walls and defensive structures.

Built during the 10th century by the Ratta dynasty rulers, this fort served as a strategic military outpost overlooking the black soil plains.

The fort contains a shrine dedicated to Maruthi and a cave featuring stone carvings of Hindu deities including Jamadagni, Parashurama, and Rama.

Visitors can access the fort through a series of steps leading from Yadravi village, with no entrance fee and opening hours from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

The natural spring known as Ramatheertha features a water tank measuring thirty by six meters, located along the descending pathway.
