Hello Friends,

Harihar on 7th September 2014 (Starting on 6th Sept. night)
General
Information:
The fort of Harihar, lying on Trimbak range, was
of significant importance in earlier periods, as there used to be a route
crossing this range connecting Maharashtra to Gujarat.Trimbak range has
spreaded its arms to the north of Igatpuri and west of Nasik. It is divided mainly in two parts,
with forts of Basgad, Utvad, hill of Fani, Harihar and Trimbakgad on one part
while the forts of Anjaneri and Hargad on the other. Vaitarna is the main river
in this region. But due to the one – sided slope of Sahyadri, the water flows
away from this region. There is an absolute shortage of water from January to
March in this region. The fort appears to be rectangular in shape from its base
village.Grade: Medium
