Kavnai Fort, Hill fort in Nashik district, India
Located on a hillock north of Kavanai village, the fort features stone steps leading to a vertical ascent with metal ladders at 2500 feet elevation.
The Mughals constructed this fortification, which later transferred to Peshva control after the 1760 Battle of Udgir through a treaty with the Nizam.
The fort stands among several other military structures in the Sahyadri ranges, forming part of Maharashtra's network of defensive fortifications.
The trek to reach the fort takes approximately three hours round trip, requiring proper hiking gear and sufficient water supplies for the journey.
A small pond at the summit remains one of the few intact structures, alongside the main entrance gate built into the natural rock formation.
