Best trek to do in Neral
Peb fort also called Vikatgad fort is a popular trekking route near Mumbai.
This trek route passes through exotic hills of Matheran and shows stunning natural beauty!
Location Address : 4 km west to Neral village, on the back side of Matheran Hill Station, Near Karjat, Maharashtra (India).
Fort Elevation / Height: 2100 feet from Mean Sea Level.
This fort offers very beautiful one-day trek from Mumbai as well as Pune.
We started our trek from Fanaswadi village near Neral railway station.
Vikatgad fort is located next to the Matheran Plateau.
After starting from Fanaswadi village, the trek ends at the Matheran Hill Station.
The Peb fort was named after the Goddess Pebi and VikatGad fort due to a shape of the mountain like Elephant Headed ‘Ganesha’.
Caves have various meditation chambers carved out from the rock inside the mountain.
The fort is completely in ruins. Today, it only has one Bastion towards the Panorama point of Matheran.
Trek to the fort is easy having a few difficult patches like the small rock patch and a ladder.
Legend says that this is the place where Lord Ganesha fall from his mouse and the moon laughed at him.
There are some caves on the fort, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj used these caves for storage of grains!
So starting from Base village Fanaswadi, we ended to matheran railway track.
