If you are visiting Mulher and want the best seat above it, Moragad is a great choice. This fortified spur of the Mulher complex in Baglan, Nashik district, takes about 45 minutes from Mulher Fort itself. Three old garrison points, a cave, cisterns, a summit reservoir and building remains are spread across the plateau at 1,356 metres. The panorama over the Dolbari peaks is the payoff. Manmad Junction is the railhead, and October to February is the season.
