Sarasgad Trek & Pali Ballaleshwar Ganpati |
Sarasgad is a village situated near
Pali in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
Pali lies about 10 kilometres East
of Nagothane along the Nagothane-Khopoli
road..
The village contains Sarasgad Fort,
the twin of Sudhagad Fort. It can
be identified by its four pinnacles
and thus was mainly used as a watch
place to check the surrounding region.
The construction of the fort is not
in good condition but the huge rock
steps are something to watch for.
There are two routes which lead to
the top of this fort from Pali. On
the top is the Shiva temple providing
an excellent panoramic view of all
the mountain ranges surrounding this
area. Sudhagad and TailBaila can be
easily view from the top of Sarasgad.
This fort height from sea level is
490 meters. There are many caves which
were used for soldiers and other purposes
because the fort has very little area
available on its top. There are around
ten tanks carved in rocks. They provide
cool water supply throughout the year,
which is very important for any fort.
Shivaji Maharaj gave 2000 hones (golden
coin used as currency during Shivaji
Maharaj's time) for repairing the
fortifications of this fort. On the
way from the south there are 111 steps
carved in stone. The door from this
side is known as 'Dindi darvaja'.
