Mastuj Fort, Military fort in Mastuj Tehsil, Pakistan.

The stone fort stands at the meeting point of Yarkhun and Mastuj rivers, providing control over mountain passages and river valleys.

The Katoor Dynasty constructed this defensive structure around 1780, with substantial modifications made in 1830 and again in the 1920s.

The fort represents the architectural methods of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region, incorporating local building materials and defensive design elements.

The fort maintains restricted visiting hours, and visitors need to obtain permission from local authorities before accessing the interior sections.

Located at an elevation of 2,359 meters, the fort offers views of both river systems and surrounding mountain ranges.
