Key Information about the Korigad ::

Type: Hill Fort
Height: 3000 Feet above MSL (Approx)
Grade: Easy (1 hour ascend max)
Base Village: Peth Shahapur

Koraigad

A thick forestation at the base, enough potable water from the lake on the top and from the cistern situated half way and easy climb attracts many enthusiasts to this fort. Amby valleydeveloped at the base of Koregad by the SHAHARA group is the new attraction of many. Wonderful view of the small bungalows of Amby Valley, Tung fort is a pleasent sight to watch from the top. Two nice lakes on the arid, flat top really takes one by surprise. Ganesh temple and a cave is situated half way and a temple ofKoraidevi is situated on the top. The interesting part of the fort is that its wall is completely intact and one can walk along its entire perimeter(about 2 km). Its massive gate is also intact. Several ruins of older structures within the fort still exist. It has six cannons – the largest of which called the Laxmi Toph is located near the Korai devi temple.
