Has anyone ever wondered why Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj chose Rajgad Fort as the first capital of Hindu Swarajya? For that one has to complete the Parikrama of Rajgad Fort.

All of us are constantly visiting the forts. But when we walk around the fort, we get to know many things about the fort. We experience that fort from a different perspective.

We are going to know the architectural glory of Rajgad Fort. The opportunity to see the Rajgad Fort from all sides is fantastic. A fine example of fort construction can be experienced in this trek.

When we go around the Rajgad Fort, we can see and feel many things like the different routes coming and going to the fort, the strong fortifications, the region and villages around the fort, and the impregnability of the fort.

This explains why this fort is called “The King of Forts, the Fort of Kings”.
