Kunjargad

The fort stands at 1400 meters above sea level, featuring stone walls and fortifications across the Harishchandragad mountain range.

This defensive structure served as a strategic military position during the reign of the Deccani Sultanates, particularly under the Nizam Shahi dynasty.

The Sanskrit name of the fort, meaning elephant, reflects its physical shape and demonstrates the connection between architecture and language in Indian fortifications.

Visitors can reach the fort through two main routes: from Vihir village in the north or Phopsandi village in the south, with a climbing time of 2.5 hours.

The fort's position between the Mula river basin and the Mandvi river basin creates a geographical intersection important for regional water distribution.
