Location Details

User Experience
Chennagiri-Mhasoba is not a fort. On the top is a temple of Mhasoba. To the West lies the Aundha fort and to the South, Pattya which was blessed with Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s presence. It does not have a historic significance but a religious one. Kalsubai range which runs to the East, goes straight till the Aad fort. Along with Bittangad, Mahankaal, Aundha stands Chennagiri-Mhasoba. The complete range of Kalsubai fills one with anxiety and excitement. The difficulty level of these forts goes on decreasing as one reaches Chennagiri-Mhasoba. Even though it is not a fort, it is a very good option for the trekkers. The pathway is very distinct and clear. It takes half an hour to reach the top. The cool breeze makes one want to spend maximum time at this place. The roofless temple of Mhasoba is right at the centre of the plateau. This place is flooded with the devotees every year during the festival. There are also devotees who visit Chennagiri throughout the year. The village seen at the foothills from the South end is Tirdegaon. This region is dry with the scorching heat in the summers and so is preferred to be visited after the rains.
