Harihar Fort, Hill fort in Nashik district, India
Located at 3,600 feet above sea level in the Sahyadri range, Harihar Fort features triangular rock formations with vertical sides and a 75-degree western edge.
Originally constructed during the Yadava dynasty in the 12th century, the fort was captured by Captain Briggs along with 17 other fortifications in 1818.
The fort contains a Shiva temple at its summit, along with a large cave structure that represents regional military and religious architectural traditions.
Access to Harihar Fort requires a moderate one-hour trek from Harshewadi village, with the final ascent involving 117 steps carved into the rock face.
The fort incorporates an exceptional rock-cut staircase system designed with strategic holes on both sides to assist climbers during the steep 60-degree ascent.
