About Torna Fort in Pune

Torna Fort is a major tourist attraction in the district of Pune, Maharashtra. It is a magnificent fortress and is otherwise popularly known as Prachandagad. Torna Fort is not only a tourist attraction but also offers exciting hiking trails for adventure lovers, and offers a vivid insight into the history. In the year 1646, the Torna Fort was captured by Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, and was considered as an important part of the Maratha Empire. Torna Fort is located on a hill at an elevation of 1403 metres, and is also the highest hill-fort in Pune.

Torna Fort History

According to the history of India, Torna Fort was constructed in the 13th century by a sect called Shaiva Panth who were the followers of Lord Shiva. History has it that in the year 1646, Chhatrapati Shivaji seized the fort when he was only fifteen years old. Ever since, the fort remains one of the premier forts captured under the Maratha empire. Later, the fort was renamed as 'Prachandagad' by Shivaji. He had also built various monuments and towers inside the fort.

The fort went under the siege of Mughal empire for a brief period during the 18th century after Sambhaji, son of Shivaji, was assassinated by the Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb. He also renamed it to Futulgaib as a symbol of the difficulties faced during the defense of the Fort. However, it was again conferred back to the Maratha confederacy under the Treaty of Purandar.

Torna Fort is located at a distance of 50 km from the city of Pune. On reaching Pune, you can either take a cab or taxi to reach Torna Fort. There are two trek routes to reach Torna Fort.

    Quality of hotels and food services needs to be improved. The same feedback was provided to the travel agent too as we found the washroom needs modifications and cleanliness can be improved a lot. The food provided did not have right quality which needs an improvement. The points of Mahabaleshwar wa
    s mesmerising however the hours provided by the travel agent could have been little more as we had to really hurry in certain points. However, overall services were good and on time.

    The trip and all the arrangements are good nothing issue on that part but the hotel you choose is not satisfactory. 1) No kitchen available 2) They insisted only for paid water bottles initially 3) Limited breakfast options available & quantity (means they are purchasing from outside & then prov
    ided to guests) Rest all is good. It was a memorable trip for all the guest. Tour manager SHREYA ji assist very well.
