Tikona Fort, also known as Vitandgad Fort, is a hill fort located in the Maval region of Maharashtra, India. It's situated atop a hill called Tikona (meaning "triangle" in Marathi), which gives the fort its name due to its triangular shape. The fort is a popular destination for trekking and offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes.
Historically, Tikona Fort has significance dating back to the 17th century. It was built by the Adil Shahi dynasty but later came under the control of various rulers, including the Mughals and the Marathas. The fort played a role in the history of the Maratha Empire and was strategically important due to its location, offering views of the Pawna Dam and the nearby forts of Tung and Lohagad.
The fort features various structures, including a large entrance, bastions, water tanks, and remnants of old buildings. The trek to Tikona Fort is moderately challenging and takes you through scenic routes and lush greenery. The fort's elevation provides an excellent vantage point to enjoy the surrounding natural beauty.
Tikona Fort has gained popularity among trekkers, history enthusiasts, and tourists looking for an adventure off the beaten path. It's a great place to explore history, enjoy outdoor activities, and experience breathtaking views of the Sahyadri Mountains.
