Salher & Salota
Forts: are located near Waghamba in Nasik district of Maharashtra, India.
It is the site of the highest fort in the Sahyadri mountains and the second
highest peak at 1,567 metres (5,141 ft) after Kalsubai in Maharashtra.
According to a legend, Lord Parshuram did his Tapascharya at Salher Fort. After winning the earth and giving it as donation, he made land for himself to live in, by pushing the sea back with his arrows, right from this place. The twin fort Salota (4986 feet) is very near to Salher.

An ancient and historically significant place like this
is also famous for its battles during the reign of Shivaji.
Mulher, Mora: The 2 forts on same range are beautifully established during Yadav
family ruling in Maharashtra 900 years ago. Lots of temples, fort walls ruins,
palaces, water tanks seen all around these 3 forts.
The Rathod dynasty of Bagul ancestry reigned Baglan between 1310 and 1638. Mulher fort was their capital. The Mughals then gained control of Baglan. For the Surat forays of January 1664 & October 1670, Shivaji Maharaj had followed the route passing through Baglan to reach Surat. On the first occasion, the entire region from Pune to Surat was under the command of the Mughals while on the second occasion, Baglan was mainly under their control. The Mughals chased Shivaji Raje on his return journey but they were defeated in the Kanchana Pass. Soon after this, Shivaji began a campaign in this region.

In
January 1671 the first assault brought the Salher fort under the Maratha rule.
They then attacked Mulher fort but the Mughal Killedar repulsed the attack.
However, the Marathas captured the Chaulher fort. In October 1671, the Mughals
laid siege to Salher fort. But Shivaji despatched Moropant and Prataprao to
break down the siege. They not only lifted the siege of Salher, but also
attacked Mulher and captured it in February 1672. This feat resulted in the
assimilation of the entire Baglan region into Swarajya.
