While travelling from Kalyan to Malshej ghat a clearly visible sharp wall like pinnacle separated from main range near Moroshi is a Bhairavgad. It is a prominent fort which rises steeply from konkan range making it a difficult and tricky fort to climb.
Short Info:
Trek: Moroshi-Bhairavgad
Height: 2835 ft.
Region: Malshej.
Grade: Medium (Trek experience required).
Max. Rangers: 25 ppl.
Last date for reg.:6th Nov 2013.(No Last min entry)
Cost: Rs. 750/- (The charges of the trek include breakfast, traveling from Dadar to Dadar by Non AC Bus.)
About:
The top of the fort is created by the geological structure known as a dyke and the final stage on the rock mass is very fascinating. Dykes in Sahyadri are probably representation of fracture into which ancient magma was injected. Non resistant rock got eroded away and the one which were more resistant have appeared as great walls.
Bhairavgad happens to be only fort built on a dyke making it a must see wonder for trekkers. This fort must have been very important as it holds very strategic location looking on the ghat and paths to Mahali and junnar forts range. The exact origin of fort is not known but the style indicates that the fort dates back to Bhoj dynasty. Carved steps are the study point for this hill fort. Water tank at east side is also subject of study, how to preserve the water which is draining from the hill.
