Purandar Fort History

Purandar Fort has a major historical significance attached to it. It is not only famous for being one of the scenic spots in Pune but also holds an importance for being the birthplace of Sambhaji, the son of great Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. According to the historical records, Purandar Fort was constructed during the 11th century under the rule of Yadava dynasty. It is believed that several rulers ( including British and Marathas) of various dynasties ruled the Fort. As per the beliefs of Hindu mythology, the hill on which the fort is seated was brought here from the Himalayas by Hanuman.

In the present time, Purandar Fort is visited by tourists because of its stunning scenery and hiking trails. It is also a perfect spot for a refreshing weekend getaway from the neighbouring cities.

Purandar Fort Trek

Purandar Fort offers blazing hiking trails for all the trekkers and hikers out there. Most of the travelers come here for a trek to experience the stunning vistas of the Wester Ghats. To reach the Tar road, you have to cross the Binni Darwaza. After driving along the road till the base of the fort, walk for 500 metres more to reach the steps. You will reach the Purandeshwar Temple and stay there for a couple of hours.

Remember that Purandar Fort comes under the military area and there are timing restrictions. Make sure to leave the place by 5 pm.

    Tarun Solanki

    Ahmedabad

    Tarun's 3 days trip to Pune

    Our recent vacation planned through TravelTriangle had its highs and lows, with Agent Gaurav Sharma shining bright amidst some disappointments. Firstly, let me highlight the commendable service provided by Gaurav Sharma. He meticulously organized our trip to Lonavala, Khandal, Panchgani, and Mahaba
    leshwar, ensuring our preferences were met and our journey smooth. Gaurav's dedication to customer satisfaction was evident through his regular follow-ups and genuine concern for our well-being throughout the trip. However, our experience with the hotel in Lonavala, Aureole Mrida - A Boutique Hotel, was far from satisfactory. The initial room assigned to us was plagued with issues – from a leaking washbasin to an overall foul odor. Gaurav promptly intervened, helping us relocate to a better room. Yet, the disappointment persisted as the breakfast served the next morning was below par, with stale breads being served, much to our dismay. The unapproachable and indifferent attitude of the hotel staff further added to our dissatisfaction. I strongly advise against choosing this hotel, and I hope TravelTriangle takes note of this feedback seriously. Thankfully, our experience improved drastically upon reaching Panchgani. The Blizzard Resort not only offered a beautiful setting but also boasted a team of helpful and cooperative staff. From delicious food to impeccable hygiene standards, every aspect of our stay was delightful. Special mention to Prashant and Abhishek, who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The opportunity to pluck strawberries from the nearby farm added an extra charm to our stay. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. In conclusion, while our journey with TravelTriangle was marked by highs and lows, Gaurav Sharma's exceptional service and the delightful experience at Blizzard Resort salvaged our vacation. However, attention must be paid to addressing the shortcomings encountered, particularly with hotel selections, to ensure a consistently satisfying experience for travelers.

    Anju's 5 days trip to Pune

    Good things: 1.) The good part for this booking was the co-ordination and customization provided by Himani madam. Very polite behaviour and hear out customer s very well. 2.) Itineary desinged according to requirements so able to cover the whole itineary. Average things: 1.) Trip was booked well in
    advanced, but driver and cab details were not even shared 10 hours before start of trip. We clearly told at time of advanced booking that New model of Innova is required, but at the very end moment they provide very old model of Innova which was not comfortable, basic radio/FM was not working. 2.) Driver behavior was un-friendly. He was not at all aware of our route and itineary. We guided him the whole journey through Google location on our phone. Good part somehow, we were able to cover full itineary. 3.) Hotels for Pune, Aurangabad and Ahmednagar were very good but in the end the hotel boooked at Nashik provided the worst experince. Basic facility provided in room were not working but anyways with good support provided by Himani madam, things got managed.

    For this trip anyways I suggested hotels to travel triangle and hotels were good. Travel triangle can take my suggestion to recommend Windmill to other customers. Staying in Windmill executive suite was too comfortable and luxurious.

    Nirmeetpadhy's 7 days trip to Pune

    This is my 6th trip with travel triangle and by far the worst trip ever. The cab and the driver were too old to ride. The hotels were good in shirdi and aurangabad, but the worst hotel I have ever experienced in lonavala and mumbai. The cab was very annoyingly calling the driver repeatedly 5 to 7 ti
    mes a day asking him to take shortcuts in the lonely roads at the night time, which is not at all safe for a family ride. I would request you, don't ever give such bad experience in a family trip.

    Pravingharat's 4 days trip to Pune

    My first experience with Travel Triangle was Very Good. But not this time. In a 3 night stay tour at Malvan for10 adults, the overall experience was Good. Hotel was neat and Clean. The cabs were also good. Overall services were satisfactory. The Trips Squaree representative (booking agent) cheated
    us. The Hotel costs were charged including breakfast (the rates on hotel site were Rs.3000/- without breakfast and Rs.3600/- with Breakfast), but during the trip, no breakfast was provided, we had to spend extra money for breakfast. The total package was for Rs.92,000/- . The cost of stay works around Rs.45,000/- for 3 nights x 5 rooms. Local site seeing was only for 2 days. First and last day only pickup and drop. No site seeing. Thus Rs.47,000/- for 2 cabs ? Seems to be cheating. I can understand charging fees for the services provided, but not to this extent. Please also note that I was asked to pay some money to the representative's personal account, where as the balance was paid to another account. With this type of experience, I can not recommend Travel Triangle to my friends and family. SORRY.

    Tjhollingsworth's 2 days trip to Pune

    I did a 2 day Aurangabad trip with this group and it went off without a hitch. Pretty long distances from Aurangabad to Ajanta Caves, like 2 hours and then the return. Road wasn’t great but the driver handled it fine. I’d recommend these guys, but if you get the same driver I had, hopefullly he
    learns more English. We were able to communicate but it was real difficult. Also, word to the wise… Make sure you have some kind of cell service all the time there. The driver and I communicated via txting when I needed picked up and it was challenging as I had no cell service from my provider. If I was to do it again, I’d have purchased a SIM card for my entire time in India. Otherwise, I’d definitely recommend this outfit.
