Tikona Fort:  The fort of Tikona is named so because of its peculiar shape, it looks like a Triangle or a 'Trikon' as a triangle is called in Marathi. The forts of Lohagad - Visapur - Tung - Tikona formed a quadrangle and helped keep a Hawk Eye on the entire Lonavala region. The fort of Tikona offers one a magnificent view of the Pawana Dam and the surrounding region and is easy to ascend.

Bedse Caves: Situated in the Maval region of Pune Taluka, Bedse caves are carved in the 1st Century BC. Until around 1861, Bedse caves were regularly maintained - even they were painted. There are couple of caves with Chaitya with beautiful stupa, Vihara, and some water cisterns carved in the rocks.

One Day Trek to Ahupe Ghat

Ahupe Ghat is a pass connecting to Khopivali Village in the konkan and Ahupe village on the Ghats. Trekking through this ghat is not labourious. The trek passes through thick forest and is ideal for one day hike especially in the monsoon, with picturesque views from the top. The edges of the ghat drop vertically to the konkan and there are many narrow gorges, with breathtaking drops. In the monsoon, it hosts waterfalls all around and gushing streams in the gorges. Ahupe village is very picturesque. It looks like a remote hamlet because on one side is the steep narrow drop to konkan and on the other three, there is a mountain range enclosing it, cutting it off from the Deccan plateau. From top one can see Damdamia, Bhimashankar, Durga Killa, Dhakoba, Gorakhgad etc. 

Height: 3855 feet above sea level

Grade: Medium
