Little info about the fort:

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.
