Hi Mates, we, Trek Mates, have arranged a trek to Sudhagad on 4th October 2015; (Starting on 3rd Night).
Little About The Fort:
Type: Hill Fort
Height: 2030 Feet above MSL (Approx)
Grade: Easy
Base Village: Thakurwadi.
Located in the vicinity of Pali and endowed with about 50 acres plateau atop, Sudhagad offers a wonderful and an easy trek.
Situated at the height of about 680 meters(2030 ft), Sudhagad is well fortified by steep cliffs. Due to its qualities Sudhagad was actually proposed by Naro Mukund to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj to make it the capital of Hindavi Swaraj. Shivaji Maharaj visited Sudhagad to survey it, but he chose Raigad because of its central location.
Places to see:
Echo Point There are lots of places to visit on and around Sudhagad. On Sudhagad one can enjoy the echo's at Echo Point.
Takamak Tok which lies nearby, was used to punish the convicted people by pushing him into the valley, but in present times it offers us a mesmerizing panoramic views.

Mahadarwaja greeting you on the way to Sudhagad from Dhondse. It's said that Sudhagad's Mahadarwaja is an exact replica of Raigad's Mahadarwaja.
