    Default Peth fort (473 m), Karjat

    Travel from Karjat to Jamrugh via Kashele and get down at Ambivili by ST. Walk to Peth village (3 km) and then to Bhairoba's cave. Rock hewn steps leads to top. To and fro trek takes 3 hour. The fort is also known as Kothilagad, because it was used as a weapon storage.
