Kaldurg Fort is situated to the east of Palghar, Maharashtra, India in the Sahyadri mountain range of northern Konkan. It is strategically situated at a height of at least 475 meters above sea level,[1] giving views of the Arabian Sea and the industrial town of Palghar to the west, as well as views of the Surya River, to the east.
This rectangular shape of a fort can easily be located from a distance. There is no specific historic sign available except fort structure. The fort is divided into the upper part and lower part due to a rectangular rock. There are few steps that separate these two parts.[2]
It is a popular destination among hikers. The trek starts at Waghoba Khind temple on Palghar - Manor Road.
