Gambhirgad, Hill fort in Palghar district, India.

The stone fort stands at 2252 feet above sea level, featuring water cisterns, temple structures, and defensive bastions within its perimeter.

The fort belonged to Jawhar State until its ruler Jayabha Mukne transferred control to a Warli chief before government acquisition.

The fort represents the military architecture of Maharashtra, incorporating local building techniques and strategic defensive positions of the region.

Visitors reach the fort through a medium difficulty trek starting from Patilpada village, requiring approximately three hours to reach the entrance.

The fort location provides direct views extending from the Arabian Sea in the west to the Sahyadri mountain range in the east.
