Lohagad
is very wide spread fort. There are 4 doors to Lohagad from the nearby
village -Lohgadwadi. i.e. 'Ganesh Darwaja' , 'Narayan Darwaja' ,
'Hanuman Darwaja' and 'Maha Darwaja'.
Some
sculptures can also be seen on Maha Darwaja. The famous spot on Lohagad
is 'Vinchu Kata' - the scorpion tail. Amazing view of Pawana Dam is
also visible from the back side of Lohagad.
The wealth from Surat was brought here under the leadership of Netaji Palkar and kept
here for some period.
One can see Purandar on south-east. Sinhagad as well as Tung and Tikona can also be clearly seen.
