Hike to Korigad: Wildflower Season


About the Event
Korigad (also called Koraigad or Kumwarigad) is a hill fort located about 20 km (12 mi) south of Lonavla. Its date of construction is not known but likely predates 1500 AD. It is about 923 m above sea level. The planned township of Aamby Valley is built over the fort's southern and eastern foothills. The closest village is Peth Shahpur, about 1 km north of the fort.
Every year after the monsoon season, wildflowers decorate the plateau of Korigad giving it a unique view. It is a dream destination for avid botanists, photographers and all those who appreciate nature.
