DESCRIPTION:PARVAT BUDDIES: An offbeat trek to Kamvandurg on 6th July 2024 (Saturday).Some Info about the place:KAMVANDURG (600m/1932ft) also known as Kamandurg is an ancient ruined hill-fort situated in the proximity of Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary in the state of Maharashtra. Located on the border of Palghar and Thane districts\, this fort was mainly used as a watch-tower in the olden days to oversee the trade route from the port of Bassein (Vasai) to the port of Kalyan. In 1683\, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj conquered the fort from the Portuguese but later in 1685\, it was recaptured by the Portuguese who subsequently abandoned the fort due to lack of water source.The summit offers a commanding 360 degree view of the surroundings – Bhiwandi\, Ghodbunder\, Mira-Bhayandar\, Vasai Creek and the Ulhas River. Peculiar to other forts in the region\, it is surrounded by good jungles on its slopes. The monsoon season transforms the region into a picturesque lush green terrain adorned with streams\, cool winds\, and melodious bird calls thereby making it an enjoyable day hike. \nEvent Type: TrekkingGrade: Easy-ModerateEndurance: MediumApprox Trek Distance: 9 kmsApprox Elevation Gain: 600mtsAge: 7+ yrs \nWhy PARVAT BUDDIES?Extensive painstaking preparations have been carried out by our team of experienced leaders in planning and organising this trek for you.
