VRangers trek to Jewel of sahyadri Ratangad on 22nd Ngt- 23th NOv 2014.



“Ratan” means jewel. Ratangad is known as the jewel fort. It is situated
in dense forests of Kalsubai – Harishchandragad range and offers a very
beautiful view from the top.



Fort Type: Hill

Maximum Height: 4255 ft.

Region: Igatpuri

Base Village: Ratanwadi.

Difficulty: Medium



Cost: Rs. 750/- {It includes Morning Breakfast, Travelling from Dadar to
dadar by private Non Ac Bus , Guide & expertise charges}.



History:-

The fort is origin for the river Pravara / Amrutvahini . The Bhandardara
dam is built on this river. Ratangad has a natural rock peak with a
cavity in it at the top which is called 'Nedhe' or 'Eye of the Needle';
formed by natural erosion, it is big enough to accommodate a group Of
ten people and the view of the entire region from here is absolutely
amazing. Ratangad was captured by Chhatrapati Shivaji Raje Bhosle and
was one of his favourites. The base village Ratanwadi has a beautiful
Amruteshwar temple which is famous for its carvings.



The entry to the fort is through two ladders & the ladders are in
poor shape. One of them has the railing of a complete side hanging,
while the other has no railings for the last 5 rungs. Besides they are
supported by apparently flimsy supports. And another entrance of the
fort is called Tryambak darwaza, this is Main Entrance. The steep way
down from the Tryambak darwaza are little risky. A chor darwaza ("Secret
entrance") the fort lies below the walls. A water tank on top of the
mountain. Ratangad had one of the largest rain water catchment areas for
its day.
