Discover the Popular Trekking Destination of Harihar Fort
Harihar Fort (also known as Harshagad) is a popular trekking destination located about 40 km from Nashik, in the Trimbakeshwar mountain range. The fort itself has very limited accommodation, with some trekkers choosing to camp on the top. The base villages of the fort, Harshewadi and Nirgudpada, have very few options. Therefore, most travelers stay in nearby towns with more established tourism infrastructure, primarily Trimbakeshwar and Nashik.
Here is a list of hotels and resorts located near Harihar Fort, focusing on the most convenient options for trekkers.
In or very near the base villages:
Accommodation in the villages: There are a few very basic homestay facilities available in the base villages, particularly in Nirgudpada. You may be able to find a local who will provide a room for the night.
Camping: Many trekkers choose to camp near the base village or on the fort itself. However, it’s important to be mindful of strong winds, especially during the monsoon season.
