Rajgadh was the first capital of Shivaji Maharaj’s Swarajya situated at almost 4400 ft. It has wonderful architecture like an eagle with its wing. The wings (Suvela machi and Sanjeevani Machi) have double fortification and they used to keep the eye on the enemies or intruders. One of the best things which I like about this trekking adventure is that it has rock patch and after climbing for few hours you can reach to the top which is Bali killa. It is the base camp of this fort at the top where Rajwada used to stay during the Swarajya.
The sun which coming out of the Mountains in the morning and during the evening it hides himself behind the mountains was really fascinating to see. As we are leaving behind so much pollution, sky was very clear with wonderful view. From the top, we are able to spot Torna Fort, RaiGadh Fort and SinhaGadh Fort. Interesting fact is that during their time, they usually communicate through some notification in the air – no mobile at those eras. :)
In the night, sky is very clear and you can spot many star patterns in the sky. Star gazing is another area which we have explored here but need some experts who know more about it. Life is quite wonderful and peaceful at this place though you are not getting all kind of comforts – not even a pure drinking water. But sometime we should have out of our Comfort Zone experience.
At last but very important, when people like us visit such forts, we also take us plastics and glass bottles and many more things with us. "Carrying them with us it will not harm, but leaving behind them its also not fair". We (trekkers) did conservation activity to cleanup the forts and surrounding areas to preserve fortification for longer period. We have collected the garbage, plastics and glasses and bring them to city for recycling.
Adventure and picnic is for our refreshment and enjoyment. By throwing garbage, we are losing such forts and places day by day. These forts have great architectures and monuments of our history. You can’t preserve them than at least don’t contribute in destroy them.
Preserve our National Heritage and Safeguard it..!!!
