Kalyangad, Medieval fort in Koregaon, India

The fort stands at 3,500 feet elevation on Nandgiri hill in the Mahadev range, featuring two stone gateways connected by ascending steps.

Built during the Shilahara dynasty between 1178 and 1209 AD, the fort later came under Shivaji's control in 1673 through a territorial surrender.

The fort houses a temple dedicated to Maruti, containing idols of Dattatraya and Parasnath, along with the tomb of Muslim saint Abdul Karim.

Visitors can reach the fort through the base village of Nandgiri, with a 45-minute trek required to reach the summit from the parking area.

The fort's structure resembles a warship's hull, containing four water ponds and a cave pond named Gavi with drinking water supply.
