easy1.5-2 hoursJun-Sep

If you are looking for a historical trek near Karjat, Kothaligad, also called Peth Fort, is a great choice. The 4 km trail from Peth village climbs for 1.5 to 2 hours to a small fort topped by a distinctive funnel-shaped pinnacle. The rock-cut steps inside the pinnacle and the cave carved into its side make the summit genuinely memorable. It is about 93 km from Mumbai and works well in the monsoon, when the surrounding valley turns lush. June to September is the classic season here.
