Thrilling Trek to Harihar Fort on 1st Nov 2015

Nisarga Bhraman has arranged a thriling trek in the Tryambakeshwar region of Nasik to the fort Harihar. 


About the place: 

Place: Fort Harihar
Base Village : Takeharsh Or Harshewadi and Nirgudpada
Region : Trimbakeshwar, Nasik
Grade: Easy
Height: 3676Feet 

Fort Harihar is a triangular massif with sheer vertical walls & edges. The only way up the fort is by climbing rock cut steps in a 70 degree rock edge. Climbing the stone ladder is like doing a trapeze act in the sky. There are a couple of caves, a storage house, water tanks, a pond & a temple atop the fort. The top offers one a birds eye view of the entire region & also gives one the gratification of having gotten over the fear of heights.
