About Torna Fort Trek:

The Torna Fort trek is one of the most popular trekking routes in Pune, Maharashtra, offering an exciting combination of historical significance and natural beauty. Situated atop the highest hill fort in Pune, Torna Fort (also known as Prachandagad) stands at an impressive elevation of 1,403 meters, making it a prominent spot for adventure seekers and history enthusiasts. The Torna Fort trek takes about 5 to 6 hours to complete, covering a distance of 6-7 kilometres from the base village of Velhe. The trek is known for its challenging terrain, scenic views, and the opportunity to explore the remnants of the fort, which dates back to the 16th century. Torna Fort hiking is ideal for those looking for a historical trek in Pune, with its ancient walls, structures, and commanding views of the surrounding Sahyadri mountain ranges.

The Torna Fort trek route offers a thrilling experience with steep ascents and a few sections requiring careful navigation. The trek starts from the village of Velhe, and the path is well-marked, although trekkers must be prepared for a moderately difficult climb. As you ascend, the landscape unfolds into panoramic views of lush greenery, waterfalls, and the vast valley below. The Torna Fort trek tips often recommend starting early in the morning, especially during the monsoon season, to avoid the midday heat. The fort also has historical significance as it was one of the first forts captured by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj at the age of 16, adding a layer of cultural importance to the journey. Whether you're a seasoned trekker or a beginner, the Torna Fort adventure will surely offer a memorable and fulfilling experience.
