Chandan Fort, Mountain fort in Satara district, India.
Located on a hilly spur of the Sahyadri mountains, Chandan Fort stands at an elevation of 3,800 feet with stone-built structures and fortified walls.
King Bhoj-II of the Shilahar Dynasty constructed Chandan Fort in 1191, which later came under control of Shivaji, the Mughals, and Chatrapati Shahu Maharaj.
The fort contains a Gaus Pak Baba Dargah with Arabic inscriptions and an old Shiva temple featuring two Linga sculptures for religious ceremonies.
Visitors can reach the fort through three paths, with the Ibrahimpur route being the most accessible, requiring a one-hour trek from the base village.
Three roofless stone rooms on the southern section of the fort served as storage areas, with water cisterns and military bastions still visible.
