If you are looking for Lohagad's bigger but quieter twin near Lonavala, Visapur is a great choice. The trek from Bhaje village covers about 8 km both ways, or 6 km via Patan village, and in the monsoon the trail itself becomes a waterfall climb. The huge plateau top has old caves, water tanks and long fort walls to walk, with views back to Lohagad across the valley. Malavli station is just 3 km from the base. June to September is the classic season, and it is about 60 km from Pune.
