If you are trekker and you love a steef valleys and running clouds, Cold air, Infinite horizon you must go to this place. Early morning is best time to explore fort as you can see mesmerizing play of clouds with delight sunlight by taking sip of tea sitting on edge of KOKANKADA. Wohhhh!! Feeling is great. Nevertheless sunset is Best to takeout all tiredness from you and your life.

Me and my cousin started at 6:30 am from Khireshwar base village from Malshej Ghat side. Tolar khind was a moderate to difficult trek...Crossing 7 hills on the way ..Reached Harishchandragarh top in 4.5 hours while resting and sipping lime/Kokam juice on the way...stayed there for 2.5 hours..ate nice Junka bhaker at a place and descended mountain in 2.5 hours...Luckily it was eve of MahaShivratri and lots of villages with kids were trekking to the top..it was nice festive atmosphere at the top..Would love to go back again...
At last; " Explore more than You can"

Note: Please Keep Nature Clean.
