Introduction

The Western Ghats in Maharashtra start from Baglaan range. This mountain range is situated to the north of Nasik district, near the border of Nasik district in Maharashtra and Dang district in Gujarat. There are 2 distinct mountain chains called Selbaari and Dolbaari. Dolbaari comprises of Salher, Mulher, Mora, Hargad and Salota forts, whereas Selbaari comprises Mangi-Tungi and Nhavigad.

Points of Interest

Nhavigad is also called Rantangad (not be confused with Ratangad from Ahmednagar district). On the way to the top, we can find water tanks and a temple. The steps are still there, but the entrance has been completely destroyed. The fort has a narrow apex, almost like a pinnacle. To reach to the topmost part, some natural vertical climbing is needed. It takes around half an hour to see the fort. There are 3-4 tanks on the fort and remnants of some houses.
